BAFF activation of the ERK5 MAP kinase pathway regulates B cell survival [PDF]
B cell activating factor (BAFF) stimulation of the BAFF receptor (BAFF-R) is essential for the homeostatic survival of mature B cells. Earlier in vitro experiments with inhibitors that block MEK 1 and 2 suggested that activation of ERK 1 and 2 MAP ...

Targeting of B‐cell receptor signalling in B‐cell malignancies [PDF]
AbstractPharmacological agents that inhibit enzymes of the B‐cell receptor (BCR) pathway are of increasing importance in the treatment of B‐cell malignancies. These include inhibitors of Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK), phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase (PI3K), splenic tyrosine kinase and protein kinase Cβ.

Unique B cell responses in B cell-dependent and B cell-independent EAE
Previous studies characterized B cell-dependent and B cell-independent models of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in C57BL/6 mice. To further characterize the B cell response generated in these two models, the serum antibody response and the B cell surface immunoglobulin (Ig) repertoire were analyzed following immunization of wild-type ...

The B cell receptor, but not the pre-B cell receptor, mediates arrest of B cell differentiation [PDF]
B cell development in organ cultures of fetal liver from mice at day 14 of gestation resembles in kinetics and cell numbers generated the one observed in vivo. This development in vitro can be blocked by an IL-7 receptor-specific monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibodies specific for the pre-B cell receptor, i. e. for VpreB, lambda5, or muH chains, do

Functional characterization of reappearing B cells after anti-CD20 treatment of CNS autoimmune disease. [PDF]
The anti-CD20 antibody ocrelizumab, approved for treatment of multiple sclerosis, leads to rapid elimination of B cells from the blood. The extent of B cell depletion and kinetics of their recovery in different immune compartments is largely unknown ...

Correction: The Endocytic Adaptor Eps15 Controls Marginal Zone B Cell Numbers. [PDF]
Eps15 is an endocytic adaptor protein involved in clathrin and non-clathrin mediated endocytosis. In Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster lack of Eps15 leads to defects in synaptic vesicle recycling and synapse formation. We generated Eps15-

Tumor-infiltrating B cells complement T cell-mediated antitumor immunity. A panel of experts share their views on the complexity of B cells within the tumor microenvironment, the variety of mechanisms by which these cells control tumor growth, their organization in tertiary lymphoid structures, and their association with immunotherapy response.

BCL-W has a fundamental role in B cell survival and lymphomagenesis. [PDF]
Compromised apoptotic signaling is a prerequisite for tumorigenesis. The design of effective therapies for cancer treatment depends on a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms that govern cell survival.

B cells and autoimmunity [PDF]
There is a growing appreciation for the role for B cells in autoimmune disorders in which inflammation is driven by T cells, in addition to the well-established role for B cells in autoimmune disorders characterized by pathogenic auto-antibodies. Current information on tolerance checkpoints in B cells, B cell depletion, BAFF blockade, regulatory B ...
