B-1 Cell Heterogeneity and the Regulation of Natural and Antigen-Induced IgM Production. [PDF]
A small subset of B cells, termed B-1 cells, with developmental origins, phenotypes, and functions that are distinct from those of conventional B cells exist in mice. It contributes the vast majority of spontaneously produced "natural" IgM.
