The second touch hypothesis: T cell activation, homing and polarization [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/2w7]

F1000Research, 2014
The second touch hypothesis states that T cell activation, proliferation, induction of homing receptors and polarization are distinguishable and, at least in part, sequential. The second touch hypothesis maintains that full T cell polarization requires T

Modulation of Toll-like receptor activity by leukocyte Ig-like receptors and their effects during bacterial infection. [PDF]

, 2010
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a potent trigger for inflammatory immune responses. Without tight regulation their activation could lead to pathology, so it is imperative to extend our understanding of the regulatory mechanisms that govern TLR expression ...

Characterisation of bovine leukocyte Ig-like receptors [PDF]

, 2012
Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are innate immune receptors involved in regulating both innate and adaptive immune functions. LILR show more interspecies conservation than the closely related Killer Ig-like receptors, and homologues have ...

TRAF6 is required for generation of the B-1a B cell compartment as well as T cell-dependent and -independent humoral immune responses.

PLoS ONE, 2009
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 ...

Detection, sorting, and immortalization of dual expresser lymphocytes from human peripheral blood samples

STAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: This protocol describes how to identify Dual Expressers (DEs), a rare type of lymphocyte that co-expresses B-cell receptors and T-cell receptors, by flow cytometry using a cocktail of four antibodies. It also shows the subsequent gating strategy

Activation of the Rap1 GTPase by the B Cell Antigen Receptor [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
The B cell antigen receptor (BCR) activates Ras, a GTPase that promotes cell proliferation by activating the Raf-1/MEK/ERK signaling module and other signaling enzymes. In its active GTP-bound form, the Rap1 GTPase may act as a negative regulator of Ras-mediated signaling by sequestering Ras effectors (e.g., Raf-1) and preventing their activation.

Silenced B-cell receptor response to autoantigen in a poor-prognostic subset of chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Haematologica, 2014
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia B cells express auto/xeno antigen-reactive antibodies that bind to self-epitopes and resemble natural IgM antibodies in their repertoire.

The B cell antigen receptor in B-cell development

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1994
During B-cell development, immature and mature forms of the B cell antigen receptor complex are deployed in a regulated fashion; thus, B cell antigen receptor complexes play essential roles in the transit of cells through ontogeny. The past year has seen progress in our understanding of how antigen receptor gene assembly is controlled and in defining ...
