Abstract

In transgenic mice, self-reactive B lymphocytes are eliminated if they encounter membrane-bound self antigens during their development within the bone marrow. We show here that two separate and sequential events, arrested development and cell death, bring about B cell elimination. Developmental arrest is an early outcome of antigen binding in immature B cells, blocks acquisition of adhesion molecules and receptors important for B cell migration and activation, and is rapidly reversible by removal of antigen. Death of the arrested B cells occurs within 1 to 3 days and can be delayed by expression of a bcl-2 transgene, which results in escape of large numbers of self-reactive B cells from the bone marrow but fails to override the developmental arrest. These findings define a novel pathway for B cell elimination, involving an initial stage vulnerable to breakdown in autoimmune disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
