Though the presence of anti-oxLDL IgG is well documented in clinical and animal studies, the role for FcγRs to the progression of atherosclerosis has not been studied in detail. In the present study, we investigated the role for activating FcγR in the progression of atherosclerosis using apoE-Fcγ chain double knockout (DKO) mice. Relative to apoE KO mice, arterial lesion formation was significantly decreased in apoE-Fcγ chain DKO mice. Bone marrow chimera studies showed reduced lesions in apoE KO mice receiving the bone marrow of apoE-Fcγ chain DKO mice. Compared to apoE KO mice, anti-oxLDL IgG1 (Th2) and IgG2a (Th1), IL-10, and IFN-γ secretion by activated T cells were increased in apoE-Fc γ chain DKO mice. These findings suggest that reduced atherosclerotic lesion in apoE-Fcγ chain DKO mice is not due to Th1/Th2 imbalance. Interestingly, number of Th17 cells and the secretion of IL-17 by activated CD4+ cells were decreased in apoE-Fcγ chain DKO mice. Notably, the number of T-regulatory cells, expression of mRNA, and secretion of TGF-β and IL-10 were increased in apoE-Fcγ chain DKO mice. Furthermore, secretions of IL-6 and STAT-3 phosphorylation essential for Th17 cell genesis were reduced in apoE-Fcγ chain DKO mice. Importantly, decrease in Th17 cells in apoE-Fcγ chain DKO mice was due to reduced IL-6 release by antigen presenting cells of apoE-Fcγ chain DKO mice. Collectively, our data suggest that activating FcγR promotes atherosclerosis by inducing Th17 response in the hyperlipidemic apoE KO mouse model.
