Immunoglobulin class switch recombination deficiencies in humans are exquisite models to analyse the mechanisms of class switch recombination (CSR). Besides defects in CD40L/CD40 interaction, others result from an intrinsic B-cell deficiency. The recent elucidation of the molecular basis of some of them has made it possible to delineate the molecular events involved in antibody maturation. Acti...
Immunoglobulin gene diversification by somatic hypermutation (SHM), class switch recombination (CSR), and gene conversion is dependent upon activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID). AID is a single-stranded DNA specific cytidine deaminase that is expressed primarily in activated mature B lymphocytes. AID appears to catalyze DNA cytidine deamination of immunoglobulin heavy (IgH) and light cha...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) are IgM-related disorders in which monoclonal B cells harbor a unique clonotypic rearrangement of the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene (IgH). The aim of this study was to characterize IgH rearrangements in a larger series of IgM-related disorders than any previously describe...
Class-switch recombination (CSR) and somatic hypermutation (SHM) occur during the differentiation of germinal center B cells (GCBs). Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is responsible for both CSR and SHM in GCBs. Here, we show that ablation of PTEN through the Cγ1-Cre mediated recombination significantly influences the CSR and SHM responses. The GCs fail to produce the IgG1 B cells, th...
Mismatch repair proteins participate in antibody class switch recombination, although their roles are unknown. Previous nucleotide sequence analyses of switch recombination junctions indicated that the roles of Msh2 and the MutL homologues, Mlh1 and Pms2, differ. We now asked if Msh2 and Mlh1 function in the same pathway during switch recombination. Splenic B cells from mice deficient in both t...
Individuals with X-linked hyper-IgM syndrome fail to express functional CD40 ligand (CD40L) and, as a consequence, are incapable of mounting protective antibody responses to opportunistic bacterial infections. To address the role of CD40L in humoral immunity, we created, through homologous recombination, mice deficient in CD40L expression. These mice exhibited no gross developmental deficiencie...
A large body of evidence has convincingly shown that Toll-like receptors are necessary sensors for infections with pathogens, but their activation was also suggested to generate autoimmunity. During experimental infections, the lack of these sensors or of their signaling molecules should lead to a deficient immune response. We found out that MyD88, the major adaptor of the Toll/interleukin-1 (T...
