Human Fcgamma receptor type II (FcgammaRII/CD32) can be produced in a soluble form, termed FcgammaRIIa2, which contains the extra- and intracellular regions of the receptor, due to an alternative splicing of the transmembrane domain-encoding exon. We show that human sera contain two forms of FcgammaRIIa2. A full-length secreted protein, which has a 32 kDa backbone, can be detected only in some sera while all sera contain a C-terminal truncated form, lacking part of the intracytoplasmic tail, and exhibiting a 24 kDa protein backbone. The 24 kDa form is significantly increased in sera from stage C patients with B chronic lymphocytic leukemia, compared to healthy donors, stage A and B CLL patients, or CLL patients in complete remission.
