Germinal Center Selection and the Antibody Response to Influenza
In this Minireview, we discuss basic aspects of germinal center biology in the context of immunity to influenza infection and speculate on how the simultaneous evolutionary races of virus and antibody may impact our efforts to design a universal influenza vaccine.
متن کاملYY1 Is Required for Germinal Center B Cell Development
YY1 has been implicated as a master regulator of germinal center B cell development as YY1 binding sites are frequently present in promoters of germinal center-expressed genes. YY1 is known to be important for other stages of B cell development including the pro-B and pre-B cells stages. To determine if YY1 plays a critical role in germinal center development, we evaluated YY1 expression during...
متن کاملDefects in Germinal Center Selection in SLE
Germinal centers (GCs) are the primary site at which clonal expansion and affinity maturation of B cells occur. B cells encounter antigen and receive T cell help in the GC light zone (LZ) and then migrate to the dark zone where they proliferate and undergo somatic mutation before cycling back to the LZ for further rounds of selection. Tolerance to autoantigens is frequently lost de novo as GC B...
متن کاملThe pleckstrin homology domain adaptor protein Bam32/DAPP1 is required for germinal center progression.
Ab affinity maturation within germinal centers (GCs) requires weeks to complete. Several signaling pathways in B cells have been shown to be required for initiation of the GC response; however, the signaling checkpoints controlling progression and eventual dissolution of the GC reaction are poorly understood. The adaptor protein Bam32/DAPP1 was originally isolated from human GCs and functions d...
متن کاملCyclin D3 is selectively required for proliferative expansion of germinal center B cells.
The generation of robust T-cell-dependent humoral immune responses requires the formation and expansion of germinal center structures within the follicular regions of the secondary lymphoid tissues. B-cell proliferation in the germinal center drives ongoing antigen-dependent selection and the generation of high-affinity class-switched plasma and memory B cells. However, the mechanisms regulatin...
