DESCRIPTION
B Lymphocytes (B cells) B cells are an essential component of the adaptive immune system that play a large role in the humoral immune response. The principal functions of B cells are to make antibodies against antigens, perform the role of antigen- presenting cells (APCs) and eventually develop into memory B cells after activation by antigen interaction. The abbreviation "B", in B cell, comes from the bursa of Fabricius in birds, where they mature. In mammals, immature B cells are formed in the bone marrow and resides in LN and spleen.TRANSCRIPT

B Lymphocytes (B cells)
B cells are an essential component of the adaptive immune system that play a large role in the humoral immune response. The principal functions of B cells are to make antibodies against antigens, perform the role of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and eventually develop into memory B cells after activation by antigen interaction.
The abbreviation "B", in B cell, comes from the bursa of Fabricius in birds, where they mature. In mammals, immature B cells are formed in the bone marrow and resides in LN and spleen.

• B cells distribute in blood, lymphoid organs (lymph node, spleen, tonsil etc.) and mucosa. About 5-15% of the circulating lymphoid pool are B cells
• Naive mature B cells exit the bone marrow and migrate into the periphery. If these mature B cells encounter specific antigen, they become activated or tolerized.
• Following activation, Ag-specific B cells differentiate into antibody-forming cells (AFC) or memory B cells in the germinal centre.

The enzymes for gene rearrangement
The products of the two genes Rag-1 and Rag-2 (recombination-activating genes) comprise the lymphoid-specific components of the recombinase. Tdt (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase) modify the ends of the broken DNA. TdT adds N-nucleotides to the V,D, and J exons, enabling the phenomenon of junctional diversity.Other enzymes: DNA exonuclease, DNA synthetas, DNA ligase.

• B1 cells (CD5+): Many of the first B cells that appear during ontogeny express CD5, a marker originally found on T cells. (express mIgM, no mIgD). They respond well to TI-Ag and may also be involved in the Ag processing and presentation to T cells.
Functions 1. produce anti-bacterial IgM the first line of
defence against microorganisms; 2. produce polyreactive Ab clearance of
denatured self components; 3. produce auto-Ab, thereby participating in the
pathogenesis of some autoimmune diseases.

Humoral immunity is mediated by antibodies and is the arm of the adaptive immune response that functions to neutralize and eliminate extracellular microbes and microbial toxins.It is more important than cellular immunity in defending against microbes with capsules rich in polysaccharides and lipids.• TD‐Ag : T cell‐dependent• TI‐Ag : T cell‐independent

Germinal centerFunction: to generate B cells that produce antibodies with affinity maturation
Germinal Center Reaction:Activated B cells give rise to Centroblasts (中心母细胞)
- localize in follicle, undergo rapid cell division and turn on machinery that causes somatic mutation in V-regionsCentroblasts give rise to Centrocytes (生发中心细胞)
- migrate to the FDC-rich region of the Germinal Center - survival is dependent on interaction with FDC-bound Ag and
presentation of Ag to Tfh cells - centrocytes that successfully compete to bind antigen (e.g.
by having higher affinity BCR) and to receive Tfh cell help are selected and may differentiate into long-lived plasma cells or memory B cells

• Affinity maturation is the process by which the affinity of Abs produced in response to a protein Ag increases with prolonged and repeated exposure to that Ag.
• The increase in affinity is due to point mutations in the V regions, and particularly in the Ag-binding HVR, of the Abs produced.
• Affinity maturation occurs in the germinal centers of lymphoid follicles.

3. General features of Ab responses in vivo
Key point
Primary immune response- longer latent phase;- smaller peak response (lower Ab titer);- remaining in the serum at detectable levels for much shorter periods;- lower average affinity;- usually IgM;
B cell-mediated immune response
![Page 79: IMMUNOLOGY B cell and humoral immunity Wei Chen, Associate Professor The Institute of Immunology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062504/5a4d1b7d7f8b9ab0599b9c35/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Secondary immune response(The immune response followed by
secondary antigenic response challenge)‐ shorter latent phase;‐ bigger peak response (higher Ab titer);‐ remaining in the serum at detectable
levels for much longer periods;‐ higher average affinity;‐ usually IgG.

Immune response of B cells to TI-Ag
B cell-mediated immune response
Memory?
* TI-1 (B cell mitogen) activate B cells
* TI-2 activate mature B cells directly the repeated epitopes combine with BCR→ BCR cross-linking→produce IgM
No Th help, no memory, early effect, IgM
