Interaction of b-cell receptors and antigens with different spatial arrangement
B-cell receptors can interact with antigen epitopes on various objects: macromolecules, microorganisms or on the surface of other cells, e.g., follicular dendritic cells. Accordingly, B cells, on the one hand, have the ability to evaluate the location of

Discovering immunoreceptor coupling and organization motifs
The recently determined cryo-EM structures of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) and B cell antigen receptor (BCR) show in molecular details the interactions of the ligand-binding part with the signaling subunits but they do not reveal the signaling ...

Induction of IgG3 to LPS via Toll-like receptor 4 co-stimulation. [PDF]
B-cells integrate antigen-specific signals transduced via the B-cell receptor (BCR) and antigen non-specific co-stimulatory signals provided by cytokines and CD40 ligation in order to produce IgG antibodies.

Unlocking the potential of Tregs: innovations in CAR technology
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) adoptive immunotherapy is emerging as a viable treatment option for both autoimmune and alloimmune diseases. However, numerous challenges remain, including limitations related to cell number, availability of target-specific ...

TRAF6 is required for generation of the B-1a B cell compartment as well as T cell-dependent and -independent humoral immune responses. [PDF]
TNF receptor superfamily members, such as CD40 and the Toll-like receptors (TLRs), regulate many aspects of B cell differentiation and activation. TRAF6 is an intracellular signaling adaptor molecule for these receptors, but its role in B cells has not ...
