B4, a human B lymphocyte-associated antigen expressed on normal, mitogen-activated, and malignant B lymphocytes.
Abstract
The characterization of a new B cell-specific antigen (B4) is described in this report. With the use of a monoclonal antibody to B4, it was shown that B4 is present on B cells isolated from peripheral blood and lymphoid organs, on cell lines derived from normal and malignant B cells, and on tumor cells isolated from patients with B cell-derived neoplasms. B4, in contrast, was not detected on normal, activated, or malignant cells of T or myeloid origin. The B4 antigen is distinct from known B cell antigens, including sIg, Ia, B1, B2, Fc, and C3. Examination of mitogen-stimulated B lymphocytes suggests that the B4 antigen initially increases with B cell activation and then is lost at the terminal stage of B cell differentiation. Moreover, the observation that B4 is expressed on almost all early B cell tumors suggests that it may precede B1, CALLA, cytoplasmic mu, and B2 in early B cell ontogeny.

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.
