Blocking Allergic Reaction through Targeting Surface-Bound IgE with Low-Affinity Anti-IgE Antibodies [ALLERGY AND OTHER HYPERSENSITIVITIES]

Allergic disorders have now become a major worldwide public health issue, but the effective treatment options remain limited. We report a novel approach to block allergic reactivity by targeting the surface-bound IgE of the allergic effector cells via low-affinity anti-human IgE Abs with dissociation constants in the 10–6 to 10–8 M range. We demonstrated that these low-affinity anti-IgE mAbs bind to the cell surface–bound IgE without triggering anaphylactic degranulation even at high concentration, albeit they would weakly upregulate CD203c expression on basophils. This is in contrast to the high-affinity anti-IgE mAbs that trigger anaphylactic degranulation at low concentration. Instead, the low-affinity anti-IgE mAbs profoundly block human peanut- and cat-allergic IgE-mediated basophil CD63 induction indicative of anaphylactic degranulation; suppress peanut-, cat-, and dansyl-specific IgE-mediated passive cutaneous anaphylaxis; and attenuate dansyl IgE-mediated systemic anaphylaxis in human FcRIα transgenic mouse model. Mechanistic studies reveal that the ability of allergic reaction blockade by the low-affinity anti-IgE mAbs was correlated with their capacity to downregulate the surface IgE and FcRI level on human basophils and the human FcRIα transgenic mouse bone marrow–derived mast cells via driving internalization of the IgE/FcRI complex. Our studies demonstrate that targeting surface-bound IgE with low-affinity anti-IgE Abs is capable of suppressing allergic reactivity while displaying an excellent safety profile, indicating that use of low-affinity anti-IgE mAbs holds promise as a novel therapeutic approach for IgE-mediated allergic diseases.
