2. 1. Regulation of B cell development by antigen receptors

   Author : Jannek Hauser; Thomas Grundström; Yuan Zhuang; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : calcium; calmodulin; e-proteins; E2A; B cell development; antigen receptor signaling; surrogate light chains; RAG; allelic exclusion; V D J recombination; AID; negative feedback regulation; plasma cell differentiation;

   Abstract : The developmental processes of lymphopoiesis generate mature B lymphocytes from hematopoietic stem cells through increasingly restricted intermediates. Networks of transcription factors regulate these cell fate choices and are composed of both ubiquitously expressed and B lineage-specific factors. READ MORE

4. 2. Gene regulation by Early B-cell Factor (EBF)

   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; serology; Immunology; B-lymphocytes; Differentiation; Transcription; EBF; Gene regulation; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi;

   Abstract : In this study we aimed at defining genes that are controlled by Early B-cell Factor (EBF), that could explain the severe block in B-cell development observed in EBF-/- mice. The fact that EBF appears to be important for the transcriptional control of genes encoding proteins in the pre-B and B-cell receptor complex implied to us that EBF could be a common regulator of other components in the pre-B and B-cell receptor.
