B cells and atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2017
B cells have emerged as important immune cells in cardiovascular disease. Initial studies have suggested that B cells protect against atherosclerosis development. However, subsequent studies demonstrating aggravation of atherosclerosis by B-2 cells have shed light on the subset-dependent effects of B cells.

Stem Cell Ophthalmology Treatment Study (SCOTS): Bone Marrow-Derived Stem Cells in the Treatment of Age-Related Macular Degeneration

open access: yesMedicines, 2020
Background: Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of vision loss in older patients. The macula accumulates drusen with loss of retinal pigment epithelial cells and photoreceptors.

Microarray profile of B cells from Graves’ disease patients reveals biomarkers of proliferation

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2020
B lymphocytes are the source of autoantibodies against the thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) in Graves’ disease (GD). Characterization of au toimmune B-cell expression profiles might enable a better understanding of GD pathogenesis.

B Cells Regulate Neutrophilia during Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection and BCG Vaccination by Modulating the Interleukin-17 Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have previously demonstrated that B cells can shape the immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, including the level of neutrophil infiltration and granulomatous inflammation at the site of infection. The present study examined the mechanisms by

Cryoglobulinemia and cryoglobulinemic vasculitis: etiological aspects and pathophysiological associations

open access: yesСовременная ревматология, 2020
The term cryoglobulinemia (CG) is used when detecting serum immunoglobulins that reversibly precipitate and form a gel at a temperature below 37 °C and dissolve when the temperature rises above 37 °C.

Gene Editing of Primary Rhesus Macaque B Cells

open access: yes, 2023
B cells and their progeny are the sources of highly expressed antibodies. Their high protein expression capabilities together with their abundance, easy accessibility via peripheral blood, and amenability to simple adoptive transfers have made them an ...

Genomic regions associated with multiple sclerosis are active in B cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
More than 50 genomic regions have now been shown to influence the risk of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, the mechanisms of action, and the cell types in which these associated variants act at the molecular level remain largely unknown.
