Prion diseases, also known as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, are invariably fatal neurodegenerative diseases for which there are no efficacious treatments. Thousands of compounds have been screened for anti-prion effect, and yet...

Viruses form particulate structures possessing high-density B-cell epitopes and viral RNA/DNA, which are ligands for multiple Toll-like receptors (TLRs). B cells are able to sense these viral antigenic signatures through B-cell antigen rece...

The essence of the adaptive immune system is self tolerance, which is maintained by various central and peripheral check points. However, the tolerance mechanisms can be broken in autoimmune disease conditions due to genetic predisposition ...

B cells play a pivotal role in host adaptive immunity against pathogenic microorganisms, but may also maladaptively contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. In contrast, distinct B cell subsets have the capacity to regulate ho...

The evolutionary origins of Ig-producing B cells appear to be linked to the emergence of fish in this planet. There are three major classes of living fish species, which from most primitive to modern they are referred to as agnathan (e.g., ...
