B cells in autoimmunity

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2000
Interest is reviving in the role of antibodies in autoimmunity. Over the last two decades, T cells occupied center stage for several reasons: They predominate within tissues undergoing autoimmune attack, they can transfer autoimmune disease in animal models, and diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus associate ...

Insights into tertiary lymphoid structures in the solid tumor microenvironment: anti-tumor mechanism, functional regulation, and immunotherapeutic strategies

open access: yesCancer Biology & Medicine, 2021
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) are ectopic immune cell aggregations that develop in peripheral tissues in response to a wide range of chronic inflammatory conditions, including infection, autoimmune disease, and cancer. In the tumor microenvironment

Protection against collagen-induced arthritis in mice afforded by the parasitic worm product, ES-62, is associated with restoration of the levels of IL-10-producing B cells and reduced plasma cell infiltration of the joints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We have previously reported that ES-62, a molecule secreted by the parasitic filarial nematode Acanthocheilonema viteae, protects mice from developing collagen-induced arthritis (CIA).

The B cell antigen receptor in B-cell development

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Immunology, 1994
During B-cell development, immature and mature forms of the B cell antigen receptor complex are deployed in a regulated fashion; thus, B cell antigen receptor complexes play essential roles in the transit of cells through ontogeny. The past year has seen progress in our understanding of how antigen receptor gene assembly is controlled and in defining ...

The VH gene repertoire of splenic B cells and somatic hypermutation in systemic lupus erythematosus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) it has been hypothesized that self-reactive B cells arise from virgin B cells that express low-affinity, nonpathogenic germline V genes that are cross-reactive for self and microbial antigens, which convert to high ...

Regulatory immune cells in transplantation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Immune regulation is fundamental to any immune response to ensure that it is appropriate for the perceived threat to the host. Following cell and organ transplantation, it is essential to control both the innate immune response triggered by the injured ...

B Cell Activation

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, 1975
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.
