SummaryA major proportion of CD5+ B lymphocytes are committed to the production of a discrete type of antibody that is polyreactive. Polyreactive antibodies appear to use selected V and, perhaps, D gene segments, mostly in unmutated configuration. They generally display relatively low affinity for different antigens and are often part of the primary ...

17p deletion strongly influences rituximab elimination in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common type of leukemia and the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, rituximab, represents the therapeutic gold standard for more than 2 decades in this pathology, when used in combination with chemotherapy ...

JAK Inhibitors and Oxidative Stress Control
Primary Sjögren's syndrome (SjS) is a complex autoimmune epithelitis, with few treatment options, but the use of Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors is promising because suppression of the JAK/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway ...

Human lymphoma mutations reveal CARD11 as the switch between self-antigen-induced B cell death or proliferation and autoantibody production [PDF]
Self-tolerance and immunity are actively acquired in parallel through a poorly understood ability of antigen receptors to switch between signaling death or proliferation of antigenbinding lymphocytes in different contexts.

CD5-Positive B Lymphocytes after Kidney Transplantation
Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for end-stage kidney diseases. Unfortunately, kidney allograft recipients rarely develop tolerance or accommodation and require life-long immunosuppression.

The effects of splenic irradiation on lymphocyte subpopulations in chronic B-lymphocytic leukemia [PDF]
We describe the effect of splenic irradiation (SI) (0,5–1 Gy weekly) on lymphocyte subpopulations for 7 patients with progressive B chronic B-lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL).

Recent studies have revealed that B cells play a critical role in autoimmunity and disease expression through various functions, including autoantibody production, cytokine secretion, antigen presentation, and co-stimulatory effect. Selective targeting of B cells has been recently achieved using a chimeric monoclonal antibody against CD20 (Rituximab ...
