Isotype Specific Assembly of B Cell Antigen Receptors and Synergism With Chemokine Receptor CXCR4

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Expression of the membrane-bound form of the immunoglobulin (Ig) as part of the antigen receptor is indispensable for both the development and the effector function of B cells.

Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...

Conformational change within the extracellular domain of B cell receptor in B cell activation upon antigen binding

eLife, 2019
B lymphocytes use B cell receptors (BCRs) to recognize antigens. It is still not clear how BCR transduces antigen-specific physical signals upon binding across cell membrane for the conversion to chemical signals, triggering downstream signaling cascades.

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.

Endothelial cells as targets for antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes [PDF]

, 2010
BACKGROUND: In this study we have examined human vascular endothelial cells as targets for antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). Vascular endothelial cells (EC) act as the major interface between blood and tissues and are crucial for the ...

Molecular requirements of the B‐cell antigen receptor for sensing monovalent antigens

The EMBO Journal, 2016
How the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) is activated upon interaction with its cognate antigen or with anti-BCR antibodies is not fully understood. We have recently shown that B-cell activation is accompanied by the opening of the pre-organized BCR oligomers, an observation that strengthens the role of receptor reorganization in signalling.

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Inhibitory B cell co-receptors and autoimmune diseases

Immunological Medicine, 2019
B cells express various inhibitory co-receptors including CD22 (also known as Siglec-2), Siglec-10 (Siglec-G in mice), CD72, LILRB (PIR-B in mice) and FcγRIIB that contain immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motifs (ITIMs) in the cytoplasmic region ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...
