Germinal center (GC) B cells depend on sustained epigenetic modulation to maintain transcriptional identity and support affinity maturation; however, whether mitochondrial metabolism directly enhances this chromatin state remains unclear. Here, we show that enhanced SIRT3 activity promotes glutam...

The qualities of antibody (Ab) responses provided by B lymphocytes and their plasma cell (PC) descendants are crucial facets of responses to vaccines and microbes. Metabolic processes and products regulate aspects of B cell proliferation and differentiation into germinal center (GC) and PC states...

Germinal center B cells were isolated from human tonsil tissue and crosslinked. ChIP was performed on two distinct pools of germinal center cells, each obtained from 3-5 donors. The experiment includes two biological replicates (germinal center cell pools from different donors). ChIP was performed o...

This experiment intended to define differential gene expression between germinal center B cells expressing or not the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein in mice. Sequencing was obtained on an Illumina HiSeq2500 system from Dark Zone GCB (DAPI-CD19+ GL7+IgD-CXCR4highCD86low) purified from CTL and GCBc...

The chemokines CXCL13 and CXCL12 are reported to be important for the germinal center reaction. Since CXCL12-deficient mice are embryonically lethal, here we took advantage of the Cxcl13-Cre/TdTomato mouse models to genetically ablate CXCL12 from B cell-interacting reticular cells and examine the mo...

By investigating the germinal center (GC) formation in STAT6ko/WT bone marrow-mixed chimera we found that GC formation in type 2 immune responses is dependent on B cell intrinsic expression of IL-4/IL-13-induced genes. We therefore used microarrays to find Stat6 dependent genes that are important fo...

The germinal center (GC) is a microanatomical compartment wherein high-affinity antibody-producing B cells are selectively expanded. B cells proliferate and mutate their antibody genes in the dark zone (DZ) of the GC and are then selected by T cells in the light zone (LZ) on the basis of affinity. H...

Changes in DNA methylation are required for the formation of germinal centers (GC), but the mechanisms of such changes are poorly understood. Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) has been recently implicated recently in DNA demethylation through its deaminase activity coupled with DNA repai...

Functional discrimination between normal centroblast and centrocyte obtained from human inflamed tonsils after cell sorting. We used microarrays to detail the segregation between these two B cell subsets Flow cytometry analysis was done on human germinal center B cells and cell subsets, i.e. CXCR4po...

To characterize the molecular origin of primary lymphomas of the central nervous system (PCNSL), 21 PCNSL of immunocompetent patients were investigated by microarray-based gene expression profiling. Comparison of the transcriptional profile of PCNSL with various normal and neoplastic B cell subsets ...
