B Cell Maintenance in Aged Mice Reflects Both Increased B Cell Longevity and Decreased B Cell Generation
Abstract
In aged mice the population of mature peripheral B cells is maintained despite a severalfold decrease in the population of bone marrow B cell progenitors. The analysis of the rate of accumulation of 5′-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU)-labeled splenic B cells in mice fed BrdU for 8 days to 8 wk demonstrated a severalfold increase in the half-life of mature B cells in aged mice. Consistent with a role for decreased B cell turnover in maintaining the mature B cell population of aged mice, several findings indicate that fewer newly generated B cells enter the spleen from the bone marrow in aged vs young adult mice. These include 1) a fourfold decrease in the population of relatively immature splenic B cells, defined as cells that express high levels of heat-stable Ag and accumulate BrdU within 8 wk of labeling; and 2) an equivalent decrease in the population of bone marrow cells representative of later stages of B cell maturation (sIgD−sIgMint-high). Surprisingly, despite a four- to sixfold decrease in pre-B cells, the population of least mature bone marrow B cells (IgD−sIgMvery low) remains intact. Because this population accumulates BrdU-labeled cells more slowly in aged mice than in younger mice, and bone marrow B cells at more mature developmental stages are diminished, it appears that in aged mice B cell development beyond the sIgMvery low stage may be retarded and that cells, therefore, accumulate within this population.

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.
