A Mouse Model to Study the Pathogenesis of γ-herpesviral Infections in Germinal Center B Cells
CD30-positive germinal center (GC)-derived B cell lymphomas are frequently linked to Epstein–Barr Virus (EBV) infection. However, a suitable animal model for the investigation of the interplay between γ-herpesvirus and host cells in B cell pathogenesis ...

The microanatomy of B cell activation [PDF]
The logistic problem of B cell antigen encounter in the lymph node has recently been studied by dynamic imaging using two-photon microscopy. These studies combined with the early studies of antigen transport have yielded a more complete picture of the orchestration of B cell activation in vivo.

Glycerol monolaurate inhibition of human B cell activation
Glycerol monolaurate (GML) is a naturally occurring antimicrobial agent used commercially in numerous products and food items. GML is also used as a homeopathic agent and is being clinically tested to treat several human diseases. In addition to its anti-

SUMMARYWe consider that 2 'signals’are essential for B cell activation. 'Signal 1’is a consequence of appropriate latticing of surface immunoglobulin receptors. 'Signal 2’can be mediated by a variety of agents. Signal 1 alone (i.e. surface Ig aggregation) leads to a state of B cell tolerance.
