Apoptotic marginal zone deletion of anti-Sm/ribonucleoprotein B cells.

CD40L is excessively produced in both human and murine lupus and plays a role in lupus pathogenesis. To address how excess CD40L induces autoantibody production, we crossed CD40L-transgenic mice with the anti-DNA H-chain transgenic mouse lines 3H9 and 56R, well-characterized models for studying B-cell tolerance to nuclear antigens. Excess CD40L did not induce autoantibody production in 3H9 mice...

B-cell tolerance and autoimmunity

Self-reactive B cells are tolerized at various stages of B-cell development and differentiation, including the immature B-cell stage (central tolerance) and the germinal center (GC) B-cell stage, and B-cell tolerance involves various mechanisms such as deletion, anergy, and receptor editing. Self-reactive B cells generated by random immunoglobulin variable gene rearrangements are tolerized by c...

Advancing Chimeric Antigen Receptor-Engineered T-Cell Immunotherapy Using Genome Editing Technologies: Challenges and Future Prospects

Chimeric antigen receptor engineered-T (CAR-T) cells also named as living drugs, have been recently known as a breakthrough technology and were applied as an adoptive immunotherapy against different types of cancer. They also attracted widespread interest because of the success of B-cell malignancy therapy achieved by anti-CD19 CAR-T cells. Current genetic toolbox enabled the synthesis of CARs ...

Association of KIR3DS1+HLA-B Bw4Ile80 Combination with Susceptibility to Tuberculosis in Lur Population of Iran

Background: Natural killer (NK) cells are the effector cells of innate immunity that respond to infection and tumor. Interactions between killer cell immunoglobulin like receptors (KIR) and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules regulate NK cells responses to eliminate infected and transformed cells. Objective: To investigate the impact of KIR genes, HLA ligand genes, and KIR-HLA combi...

Rs Rearrangement: Observations and Implications from a Novel Assay of B Cell Tolerance

Antibody diversity is generated through the random recombination of immunoglobulin gene segments. As a consequence of this stochastic process, antibodies recognizing self-antigens can also be produced. Continued antibody gene rearrangement, termed receptor editing, is an important mechanism of central B cell tolerance that serves to alter the antibody specificity of developing B cells. Although...
