YY1 Is Required for Germinal Center B Cell Development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
YY1 has been implicated as a master regulator of germinal center B cell development as YY1 binding sites are frequently present in promoters of germinal center-expressed genes. YY1 is known to be important for other stages of B cell development including

Acute SIV infection in sooty mangabey monkeys is characterized by rapid virus clearance from lymph nodes and absence of productive infection in germinal centers. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Lymphoid tissue immunopathology is a characteristic feature of chronic HIV/SIV infection in AIDS-susceptible species, but is absent in SIV-infected natural hosts.

B cell-intrinsic IRF-1 and conserved gammaherpesvirus protein kinase cooperate to promote murine gammaherpesvirus-driven germinal center response and splenic latent reservoir [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Gammaherpesviruses infect >90% of adults and are associated with B cell lymphomas. These viruses drive the expansion and differentiation of germinal center B cells to amplify latent viral reservoir and ensure life-long infection of memory B cells ...

Gammaherpesvirus infection unveils exaggerated germinal center responses in an SR-BI-deficient host [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Lipid metabolism has emerged as an important regulator of acute viral infections by affecting viral replication and the host immune response. In contrast, the role of host lipid metabolism during chronic viral infection has been less explored.

In Silico Analysis of the Longevity and Timeline of Individual Germinal Center Reactions in a Primary Immune Response

open access: yesCells, 2021
Germinal centers (GCs) are transient structures in the secondary lymphoid organs, where B cells undergo affinity maturation to produce high affinity memory and plasma cells.

Germinal Centers [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Immunology, 2012
Germinal centers (GCs) were described more than 125 years ago as compartments within secondary lymphoid organs that contained mitotic cells. Since then, it has become clear that this structure is the site of B cell clonal expansion, somatic hypermutation, and affinity-based selection, the combination of which results in the production of high-affinity ...

The magnitude of the germinal center B cell and T follicular helper cell response predicts long-lasting antibody titers to plague vaccination

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The development of a safe and effective vaccine against Yersinia pestis, the causative organism for plague disease, remains an important global health priority.

Antibody Mediated Intercommunication of Germinal Centers

open access: yesCells, 2022
Antibody diversification and selection of B cells occur in dynamic structures called germinal centers (GCs). Passively administered soluble antibodies regulate the GC response by masking the antigen displayed on follicular dendritic cells (FDCs).

Analysis of immunophenotypic features in hyaline vascular type Castleman disease

open access: yesDiagnostic Pathology, 2023
Background Studies suggested that the immunophenotype of hyaline vascular type Castleman disease (HVCD) lacked characteristics, which was easy to be confused with other diseases. Methods From January 2010 to June 2022, 17 cases of HVCD were selected from

Distinctive High Expression of Antiretroviral APOBEC3 Protein in Mouse Germinal Center B Cells

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Tissue and subcellular localization and its changes upon cell activation of virus-restricting APOBEC3 at protein levels are important to understanding physiological functions of this cytidine deaminase, but have not been thoroughly analyzed in vivo.
