Aberrant immunoglobulin class switch recombination and switch translocations in activated B cell–like diffuse large B cell lymphoma
To elucidate the mechanisms underlying chromosomal translocations in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), we investigated the nature and extent of immunoglobulin class switch recombination (CSR) in these tumors. We used Southern blotting to detect legitimate and illegitimate CSR events in tumor samples of the activated B cell-like (ABC), germinal center B cell-like (GCB), and primary mediasti...
متن کاملImmunoglobulin class-switch recombination deficiencies
Immunoglobulin class-switch recombination deficiencies (Ig-CSR-Ds) are rare primary immunodeficiencies characterized by defective switched isotype (IgG/IgA/IgE) production. Depending on the molecular defect in question, the Ig-CSR-D may be combined with an impairment in somatic hypermutation (SHM). Some of the mechanisms underlying Ig-CSR and SHM have been described by studying natural mutants ...
متن کاملonychomadesis in a patient with immunoglobulin class switch recombination deficiency
immunoglobulin class switch recombination deficiencies (ig csr deficiencies) or hyper igm syndromes (higm) are a group of primary immunodeficiency diseases, characterized by defective cd40 signaling of b cells resulting into a csr and a somatic hypermutation. the affected patients are characterized with reduced serum levels of igg and iga, and normal or elevated level of igm, which lead to incr...
متن کاملSpontaneous class switch recombination in B cell lymphopoiesis generates aberrant switch junctions and is increased after VDJ rearrangement.
Mature B cells replace the mu constant region of the H chain with a downstream isotype in a process of class switch recombination (CSR). Studies suggest that CSR induction is limited to activated mature B cells in the periphery. Recently, we have shown that CSR spontaneously occur in B lymphopoiesis. However, the mechanism and regulation of it have not been defined. In this study, we show that ...
متن کاملCritical Roles of Pten in B Cell Homeostasis and Immunoglobulin Class Switch Recombination
Pten is a tumor suppressor gene mutated in human cancers. We used the Cre-loxP system to generate a B cell-specific mutation of Pten in mice (bPten(flox/flox)mice). bPten(flox/flox) mice showed elevated numbers of B1a cells and increased serum autoantibodies. Among B2 cells in bPten(flox/flox) spleens, numbers of marginal zone B (MZB) cells were significantly increased while those of follicular...
