Germinal center reaction

Current Opinion in Hematology, 2001
The germinal center reaction is one critical outcome of helper T-cell-dependent antigen-specific B-cell responses. Germinal center reactions are the culmination of an orchestrated series of intercellular information exchanges discussed here as the serial synapsis model of adaptive immunity.

The germinal center reaction

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2010
The germinal center (GC) reaction is the basis of T-dependent humoral immunity against foreign pathogens and the ultimate expression of the adaptive immune response. GCs represent a unique collaboration between proliferating antigen-specific B cells, T follicular helper cells, and the specialized follicular dendritic cells that constitutively occupy ...

Germinal center development

Immunological Reviews, 1997
Summary: Using a set of surface markers Including igD and CD38, human tonsillar B cells were classified into discrete subpopulations. Molecular and functional analysis allowed us to identify: i) two sets of naive B cells (Bml and Bm2); ii) germinal center founder cells (Bm2′); iii) an obscure population of germinal center B cells, displaying a high ...

Germinal Centers

Annual Review of Immunology, 1994
Germinal centers develop in the B cell follicles of secondary lymphoid tissues during T cell-dependent (TD) antibody responses. The B cells that give rise to germinal centers initially have to be activated outside follicles, in the T cell-rich zones in association with interdigitating cells and T cell help.

The Germinal Center Response

Critical Reviews in Immunology, 2004
The germinal center reaction is the foundation of T-cell-dependent humoral responses. Antigen-specific B cells recruited into germinal centers undergo a complex cellular program that allows for extensive expansion, isotype switching, somatic hypermutation, and differentiation into antibody-forming cells and memory cells.

Spontaneous germinal centers and autoimmunity [PDF]

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2017
Germinal centers (GCs) are dynamic microenvironments that form in the secondary lymphoid organs and generate somatically mutated high-affinity antibodies necessary to establish an effective humoral immune response. Tight regulation of GC responses is critical for maintaining self-tolerance.

Germinal Center Reaction

2020
Germinal centers (GCs) are transient microstructures formed within the follicles of secondary lymphoid tissues in response to certain types of immunization and foreign pathogens. A mature GC comprises two functionally distinct compartments, a dark zone (DZ) and a light zone (LZ).

Complement-in’ the germinal center response

Nature Immunology, 2021
B cells rewire complement for optimal germinal center responses. When B cell C3 activity is limited, germinal centers collapse and outputs are impaired.

The life and death of the germinal center

Annals of Diagnostic Pathology, 2020
The formation, development and dissolution of germinal centers is a major part of immune system function. It is important to differentiate neoplastic processes from follicular hyperplasia and regressive follicular changes. Better understanding of germinal center development and dissolution also provides diagnostic clues to the underlying pathologic ...

Getting toGether in Germinal centers

Science Immunology, 2021
Ggt5 cleaves the ligand of P2RY8 in lymph node follicles and generates a gradient that supports B cell confinement to germinal centers.
