B cell MHC haplotype affects follicular inclusion, germinal center participation and plasma cell differentiation in a mouse model of lupus

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionMHC class II molecules are essential for appropriate immune responses against pathogens but are also implicated in pathological responses in autoimmune diseases and transplant rejection.

Lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Oncologist, 1999
Abstract Mechanisms in Hematology is a book with an accompanying interactive CD-ROM designed to assemble basic concepts that underlie clinical understanding and progress. It is presented as a concise text with a series of diagrams that distill diffuse information into a compact form.

Generation of High Quality Memory B Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Protection against pathogen re-infection is mediated, in large part, by two humoral cellular compartments, namely, long-lived plasma cells and memory B cells.

Assessing the impact of an antigen-specific antibody response on atherosclerosis development in mice

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2023
Summary: The antibody immune response plays a critical role in atherosclerosis. Here, we present a protocol for assessing the impact of an antigen-specific germinal center antibody response on atherosclerosis development, using a pro-atherogenic mouse ...

Antigen presentation by B cells enables epitope spreading across an MHC barrier

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Circumstantial evidence suggests that B cells may instruct T cells to break tolerance. Here, to test this hypothesis, we used a murine model in which a single B cell clone precipitates an autoreactive response resembling systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)

Cell polarity regulators, multifunctional organizers of lymphocyte activation and function

open access: yesBiomedical Journal, 2022
Cell polarity regulators are ubiquitous, evolutionary conserved multifunctional proteins. They contain a variety of protein–protein interaction domains endowing them the capacity to interact with cytoskeleton structures, membrane components and multiple ...

Follicular Regulatory T Cells Can Access the Germinal Center Independently of CXCR5

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: The germinal center (GC) response is critical for generating high-affinity humoral immunity and immunological memory, which forms the basis of successful immunization. Control of the GC response is thought to require follicular regulatory T (Tfr)

Adenomatous Polyposis Coli Defines Treg Differentiation and Anti-inflammatory Function through Microtubule-Mediated NFAT Localization

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017

Dynamic 3D Locus Organization and Its Drivers Underpin Immunoglobulin Recombination

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
A functional adaptive immune system must generate enormously diverse antigen receptor (AgR) repertoires from a limited number of AgR genes, using a common mechanism, V(D)J recombination.

Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte, Platelet-to-Lymphocyte and Monocyte-to-Lymphocyte Ratio in Bipolar Disorder [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
Background: Several inflammatory hypotheses have been suggested to explain the etiopathogenesis of bipolar disorder (BD) and its different phases. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR), and monocyte-to-lymphocyte (MLR) ratios have been proposed as potential peripheral biomarkers of mood episodes.
