Regulatory B (Breg) cells represent a population of suppressor B cells that participate in immunomodulatory processes and inhibition of excessive inflammation. The regulatory function of Breg cells have been demonstrated in mice and human with inflammatory diseases, cancer, after transplantation, and particularly in autoinflammatory disorders. In order to suppress inflammation, Breg cells produce anti-inflammatory mediators, induce death ligand-mediated apoptosis, and regulate many kinds of immune cells such as suppressing the proliferation and differentiation of effector T cell and increasing the number of regulatory T cells. Central nervous system Inflammatory demyelinating diseases (CNS IDDs) are a heterogeneous group of disorders, which occur against the background of an acute or chronic inflammatory process. With the advent of monoclonal antibodies directed against B cells, breakthroughs have been made in the treatment of CNS IDDs. Therefore, the number and function of B cells in IDDs have attracted attention. Meanwhile, increasing number of studies have confirmed that Breg cells play a role in alleviating autoimmune diseases, and treatment with Breg cells has also been proposed as a new therapeutic direction. In this review, we focus on the understanding of the development and function of Breg cells and on the diversification of Breg cells in CNS IDDs.

Background: Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is often refractory and relapsing, leading to increased mortality post-HSCT.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the cases of patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) who underwent allo-HSCT to study their clinical features, the occurrence of AIHA post-HSCT, and treatment response and to explore the possible pathogenesis of AIHA.

Result: A total of 113 patients were registered in the study, out of whom 14 developed AIHA following allo-HSCT, resulting in a cumulative incidence of 12.

Liver B Cells Promotes MASLD Progression via the Apelin/APLNR System.

Int J Med Sci

January 2025

Department of Medical Laboratory Science, The Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China.

Investigate the role of the apelin/APLNR axis in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), focusing on the progression from metabolic dysfunction-associated simple steatotic liver (MASS) to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and fibrosis, with emphasis on liver B cells. Serum samples from MASLD patients and liver tissues from hepatocellular carcinoma patients were collected to measure apelin and APLNR protein expression. C57BL/6J mouse models of varying MASLD stages were developed using a high-fat diet and CCl.

Current desensitization and maintenance immunosuppression regimens for kidney transplantation in sensitized individuals show limited ability to control the posttransplant humoral response, resulting in high rates of antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) and graft failure. Here, we showed that anti-CD154 monoclonal antibody (mAb)-based immunosuppression more effectively controlled allograft rejection and humoral rebound in a highly sensitized nonhuman primate kidney transplantation model compared with tacrolimus-based standard-of-care (SOC) immunosuppression. Desensitization with an anti-CD154 mAb (5C8) and a proteasome inhibitor led to decreased donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) and disruption of lymph node germinal centers with reduction of proliferating, memory, and class-switched B cells as well as T follicular helper cells.

Intratumoural CD8 CXCR5 follicular cytotoxic T cells have prognostic value and are associated with CD19 CD38 B cells and tertiary lymphoid structures in colorectal cancer.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common digestive cancer in the world. Microsatellite stability (MSS) and microsatellite instability (MSI-high) are important molecular subtypes of CRC closely related to tumor occurrence and progression and immunotherapy efficacy. The presence of CD8 CXCR5 follicular cytotoxic T (T) cells is strongly associated with autoimmune disease and CD8 effector function.
