Prolactin Rescues Immature B-Cells from Apoptosis Induced by B-Cell Receptor Cross-Linking
Prolactin has an immunomodulatory effect and has been associated with B-cell-triggered autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In mice that develop SLE, the PRL receptor is expressed in early bone marrow B-cells, and increased levels of PRL hasten disease manifestations, which are correlated with a reduction in the absolute number of immature B-cells. The aim of this wo...
متن کاملSelf-antigen does not accelerate immature B cell apoptosis, but stimulates receptor editing as a consequence of developmental arrest.
In pre-B lymphocytes, productive rearrangement of Ig light chain genes allows assembly of the B cell receptor (BCR), which selectively promotes further developmental maturation through poorly defined transmembrane signaling events. Using a novel in vitro system to study immune tolerance during development, we find that BCR reactivity to auto-antigen blocks this positive selection, preventing do...
متن کاملEnforced Bcl-2 Expression Inhibits Antigen-mediated Clonal Elimination of Peripheral B Cells in an Antigen Dose–dependent Manner and Promotes Receptor Editing in Autoreactive, Immature B Cells
The mechanisms that establish immune tolerance in immature and mature B cells appear to be distinct. Membrane-bound autoantigen is thought to induce developmental arrest and receptor editing in immature B cells, whereas mature B cells have shortened lifespans when exposed to the same stimulus. In this study, we used Emu-bcl-2-22 transgenic (Tg) mice to test the prediction that enforced expressi...
متن کاملReceptor editing: How B cells stay tolerant
In 1993, David Nemazee and Martin Weigert independently showed that autoreactive B cells could proofread, alter, and reexpress modified receptors to become nonautoreactive. This process, called "receptor editing," has since gained prominence as the main mechanism of B cell tolerance.
متن کاملRegulation of VH replacement by B cell receptor-mediated signaling in human immature B cells.
VH replacement provides a unique RAG-mediated recombination mechanism to edit nonfunctional IgH genes or IgH genes encoding self-reactive BCRs and contributes to the diversification of Ab repertoire in the mouse and human. Currently, it is not clear how VH replacement is regulated during early B lineage cell development. In this article, we show that cross-linking BCRs induces VH replacement in...
