概括
与年龄相关的B细胞 (ABCs) 在狼小鼠模型中抵抗抗BLyS和抗CD20抗体的枯竭. 这些发现表明,针对自身免疫性疾病中针对ABC的基于抗体的疗法存在局限性.
科学领域:
- 免疫学 免疫学 免疫学
- 这是一种自身免疫力.
- B细胞生物学B细胞生物学
背景情况:
- B细胞枯竭疗法对自身免疫性疾病具有前景.
- 这些疗法对致病性T-bet+CD11c+年龄相关B细胞 (ABCs) 的影响尚不清楚.
- ABCs与自身免疫性疾病 (如狼) 的病原发生有关.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究使用单克隆抗体 (mAbs) 对BLyS和CD20的B细胞枯竭的疗效,减少ABC和其他脏B细胞子集.
- 在两种不同的狼小鼠模型中评估这些策略:NZBxNZWF1和慢性移植对宿主疾病 (cGVHD).
主要方法:
- NZBxNZWF1和cGVHD小鼠接受了抗BLyS (10F4),抗CD20 (18B12),组合疗法或疾病发病后的盐水治疗.
- 包括T-bet+CD11c+ABCs,毛囊 (FO) B细胞和边缘区 (MZ) B细胞在内的B细胞子集,在脏样本中通过流细胞计分析.
- 进行了剂量范围研究 (0.2 mg或1 mg).
主要成果:
- 在NZBWF1小鼠中,B细胞枯竭是可变的,并且由于淋巴缺血和治疗耐药性,对FO和MZ B细胞有部分有效.
- 在NZBWF1小鼠中,T-bet+CD11c+ABC保持不变或增加,并且完全抵抗抗体治疗.
- 在cGVHD小鼠中,抗BLyS和抗CD20有效地消耗了FOB细胞,对MZB细胞产生了差异性影响.
- 关键的是,T-bet+CD11c+ABC被单独或组合抗体治疗所影响的最小,无论剂量如何.
结论:
- 在内居住的T-bet+CD11c+ABC群体表现出对已确立的B细胞废除疗法的显著耐药性,包括抗BLyS和抗CD20.
- 这些发现凸显了当前抗体介导的B细胞枯竭策略的潜在局限性,用于治疗以ABC积累为特征的自身免疫性疾病.

TGF - β Signaling Pathway
7.2K
The TGF-β signaling pathway regulates cell growth, differentiation, adhesion, motility, and development. TGF-β ligands that induce TGF-β signaling are synthesized in their latent form. Several proteases or cell surface receptors such as integrins act upon the latent form, releasing the active ligand. There are three types of mammalian TGF-βs: (TGF-β1, TGF-β2, and TGF-β3) that bind as homodimers or heterodimers to TGF-β receptors. The TGF-β receptors...

The Retinoblastoma Gene

Tumor suppressor genes are normal genes that can slow down cell division, repair DNA mistakes, or program the cells for apoptosis in case of irreparable damage. Hence, they play an essential role in preventing the proliferation of damaged cells.
The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...
