Effect of tumor necrosis factor alpha on mitogen-activated human B cells.
Open accessAbstract
In this study we demonstrate that the monocyte/macrophage product, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), has significant in vitro effects of B cell function. It costimulated with anti-mu in the induction of B cell DNA synthesis, and it prolonged the DNA synthesis initiated in B cell cultures stimulated with the human B cell mitogen, Staphylococcus aureus Cowan strain I (SAC). The addition of either IL-1 or IFN-gamma to TNF-alpha resulted in a substantial further increase in DNA synthesis. The addition of TNF-alpha to IL-2, a known inducer of SAC-activated B cell Ig secretion, resulted in a twofold enhancement in the amount of IL-2 stimulated B cell Ig secretion. Receptor binding studies with 125I-TNF-alpha demonstrate a marked increase in TNF-alpha binding sites after B cell activation (approximately 6,000 sites per cell, with an apparent Kd of 2.0 X 10(-10) M). Thus, TNF-alpha may be an important factor in human B cell function and is likely to interact with other T cell and monocyte derived cytokines in the regulation of human B cell proliferation and Ig production.

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.
