Inhibition of c-myc expression induces apoptosis of WEHI 231 murine B cells.
Treatment of WEHI 231 immature B-lymphoma cells with an antibody against their surface immunoglobulin (anti-Ig) induces apoptosis and has been studied extensively as a model of B-cell tolerance. Anti-Ig treatment of exponentially growing WEHI 231 cells results in an early transient increase in c-myc expression that is followed by a decline to below basal levels; this decrease in c-myc expressio...
متن کاملCpG oligodeoxynucleotide enhances tumor response to radiation.
CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) are synthetic DNA sequences containing unmethylated cytosine-guanine motifs with potent immunomodulatory effects. Via Toll-like receptor 9 agonism of dendritic cells and B cells, CpG ODNs induce cytokines, activate natural killer cells, and elicit vigorous T-cell responses that lead to significant antitumor effects, including improved efficacy of chemotherapeuti...
متن کاملDifferentiation and Ig-allele switch in cell line WEHI-231.
Because of its susceptibility to apoptosis upon Ag receptor cross-linking and lack of IgD expression, cells of the mouse cell line WEHI-231 have been classified as immature B cells. In this study we show that early freezings of the WEHI-231 line express IgD but not CD93, which classifies the cells as more similar to mature B cells. Another, later line obviously has differentiated in culture and...
متن کاملPresentation of soluble antigens to CD8+ T cells by CpG oligodeoxynucleotide-primed human naive B cells.
Naive B lymphocytes are generally thought to be poor APCs, and there is limited knowledge of their role in activation of CD8(+) T cells. In this article, we demonstrate that class I MHC Ag presentation by human naive B cells is enhanced by TLR9 agonists. Purified naive B cells were cultured with or without a TLR9 agonist (CpG oligodeoxynucleotide [ODN] 2006) for 2 d and then assessed for phenot...
متن کاملTLR9 Ligand (CpG Oligodeoxynucleotide) Induces CLL B-Cells to Differentiate into CD20+ Antibody-Secreting Cells
B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most frequent adult leukemia in the Western world. It is a heterogeneous disease characterized by clonal proliferation and the accumulation of CD5(+) mature B lymphocytes. However, the normal counterpart from which the latter cells arise has not yet been identified. CD27 expression and gene expression profiling data suggest that CLL cells are rel...
