  • B cells are crucial for the immune response as they produce antibodies, and there's ongoing research into their development, but results vary due to different species and methods used in studies.
  • The current research focuses on characterizing B cells from human sources, identifying that around 50% of IgG-producing B cells in blood and up to 90% in tonsils are "atypical" memory B cells.
  • The study also explored how cytokines IL-21 and TGF-β1 affect the production and expression of antibodies on B cells, revealing significant differences in their effects.

Malignant effusion has different tumor microenvironment from primary tumor, containing a variety of cytokines and immune cells and directly contacting with tumor cells. However, the characteristic of CD4 T cells and CD8 T cells in malignant effusion remains unclear.
