Precursor B Cells from Pax-5-deficient mice — Stem Cells for Macrophages, Granulocytes, Osteoclasts, Dendritic Cells, Natural Killer Cells, Thymocytes and T Cells
At least three major cell differentiation lineages cooperate to build the system of lymphoid organs, each one derived from a separate stem cell. Hematopoietic stem cells give rise to T-lymphoid cells in the th...

The Cluster of ABCD Chemokines which Organizes T Cell-Dependent B Cell Responses
The ordered migration and cooperation of many different lineages of hematopoietic cells is a key requirement for the development and the responses of cells of the immune system and during an immune response. T...

A Novel CC Chemokine ABCD-1, Produced by Dendritic Cells and Activated B Cells, Exclusively Attracts Activated T Lymphocytes
Cells of the immune system can migrate as single cells through blood and lymph and can organize themselves to form specific areas in primary and secondary lymphoid organs. It has become evident that chemokines...

The Transition from Immature to Mature B Cells
The small pre-B II cells, such as those that can be found in the bone marrow, form the direct precursor pool of immature B cells that first express IgM at their surface. Experiments by Osmond and his colleague...

Fetal Liver Organ Cultures as a Tool to Study Selection Processes During B Cell Development
Recent studies concerning B cell development in the mouse embryo have indicated that the first cells committed to the B cell lineage arise in the para-aortic splanchnopleura at a time prior to the hematopoieti...

The Formation and Selection of Cells Expressing PreB Cell Receptors and B Cell Receptors
The repertoires of B cell receptor (Ig)-expressing B cells are generated during B cell development in a stepwise fashion (Tonegawa 1983). First, DH segments are rearranged to JH segments on the H chain locus at t...

Human Macrophage-Derived Chemokine (MDC) is Strongly Expressed Following Activation of both Normal and Malignant Precursor and Mature B Cells
Chemokines are a rapidly expanding group of secreted molecules that selectively control the migration and homing of leukocytes to different sites of inflammation and immune responses [1, 2]. They are believed ...

Autoimmune Disease Strongly Resembling Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) in F1 Mice Undergoing Graft-Versus-Host Reaction (GVHR)
The etiology and cellular pathogenesis of human SLE and of the spontaneously arising SLE-like diseases of mice are still poorly understood. Especially, the possible participation of T helper (TH) cells and, if th...
