B cells

[Frontiers in Immunology] Investigators explored the impact of epigenetic modifiers and differentiation agents on leukemia cell lines of B cell origin, as well as normal B cells.

[Genome Biology] The authors used R2C2 to sequence and demultiplex 12 million full-length cDNA molecules generated by the 10X Genomics platform from ~3000 peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

[Science] Scientists longitudinally profiled SARS-CoV-2 spike-specific serological and memory B cell responses in individuals receiving either homologous or heterologous prime-boost vaccination.

[Leukemia] In co-cultures from 28 different chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients, the authors detected an expansion of T-follicular helper cells based on PD-1, BCL6, and ICOS expression, with increased IL-21 and downmodulated CD40L surface expression.

[Science] Scientists determined that complement component 3 bound to peptide-loaded major histocompatibility complex class II molecules exposed on the surface of mouse and human conventional dendritic cells, forming a covalent bond with the carbohydrate moiety of the MHC II α chain.

[Neurochemical Research] Researchers explored the mechanism of hUC-MSC derived exosome's ameliorative effect on the spinal cord injury by combining data from in vivo contusion spinal cord injury model and in vitro cell viability of PC12 cell line stimulated with lipopolysaccharide.
