Binding of ligands to cell surface receptors may induce an interaction of the receptors with the cytoskeleton and/or membrane skeleton and decrease the solubility of the receptors in nonionic detergents. Cytochalasins, reagents affecting the structure of microfilaments, inhibit some cell functions induced by cross-linking of the receptors with ligands. Information concerning the function of the cytoskeleton in insolubilization of Fc gamma receptors (Fc gamma R) and in Fc gamma R-mediated signal transmission is rather limited. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of binding of homologous (guinea pig IgG1 and IgG2) and heterologous (rabbit IgG) immunoglobulins to guinea pig peritoneal macrophages on association of the macrophage Fc gamma receptors with the membrane skeleton and cytoskeleton. Cross-linking the macrophage Fc gamma receptors with immunoglobulin ligands induced insolubilization of the receptors in nonionic detergents suggesting association of the receptors with the membrane skeleton and the cytoskeleton. The ligands showed differential effects depending on a subclass and origin of the IgG used. The process of association of the Fc gamma receptors with the skeletons was fast and did not depend on temperature. Treatment of insoluble complexes with cytochalasin D, DNAse I or colchicine showed that actin microfilaments and microtubules play a role, at least partially, in insolubilization of the cross-linked macrophage Fc gamma receptors. Inhibition of insolubilization of the macrophage Fc gamma receptors by genistein indicated that tyrosine kinases are involved in the process of insolubilization. The association with the skeletons might be a part of the process of transduction of a signal which depended on the subclass and origin of IgG used and on the type of the Fc gamma receptor.
