B cells and cancer: To B or not to B?

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2020
Whereas T cells have been considered the major immune cells of the tumor microenvironment able to induce tumor regression and control cancer clinical outcome, a burst of recent publications pointed to the fact that B cells may also play a prominent role.

Inhibition of T cell/B cell interaction by B-CLL cells [PDF]

Leukemia, 1999
The course of disease in patients suffering from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is determined by a profound dysregulation of the immune system. The resulting immune suppression is the main cause of death in those patients. In the present study we addressed the question of whether leukemic B cells (B-CLL) are able to suppress regular T cell/B cell ...

Human IgM+CD27+ B Cells: Memory B Cells or “Memory” B Cells? [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2007
Abstract Memory B cells are generated in germinal centers (GC) and contribute to serological immunity by rapidly differentiating into plasma cells. Human memory B cells can be identified by the expression of CD27. These cells exhibit more rapid responses than naive (CD27−) B cells following stimulation in vitro, consistent with the ...

Functional characterization of reappearing B cells after anti-CD20 treatment of CNS autoimmune disease. [PDF]

, 2018
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 ...

B-1 Cell Heterogeneity and the Regulation of Natural and Antigen-Induced IgM Production. [PDF]

, 2016
A small subset of B cells, termed B-1 cells, with developmental origins, phenotypes, and functions that are distinct from those of conventional B cells exist in mice. It contributes the vast majority of spontaneously produced "natural" IgM.

Stromal Cells Attract B‐Cell Progenitors to Promote B‐Cell–B‐Cell Contact and Maturation [PDF]

Scandinavian Journal of Immunology, 2005
AbstractThe in vitro differentiation of B‐lineage progenitors into Ig‐secreting mature B cells has classically required a co‐culture system containing lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and stromal cells. We have previously showed that B‐lineage progenitors cultured in round‐bottomed wells can mature and secrete immunoglobulin M (IgM) on par with cultures ...

IgM-producing tumors in the BALB/c mouse: a model for B-cell maturation [PDF]

, 1974
Five adjuvant induced BALB/c tumors producing IgM—McPc 1748, W 3469, TEPC 183, McPc 774, and Y 5781—were characterized morphologically by electron microscopy, analysis of the distribution of surface-bound and intracytoplasmic IgM using immunofluorescence,
