Description for Signal Transduction and the Coordination of B Lymphocyte Development and Function
Hardback. Provides a review of research in the field of B cell development and differentiation with particular emphasis on signal transduction processes. This book focuses on the biochemical pathways which regulate B cell biology and the role of signal transduction processes in regulating various aspects of B cell function, development and differentiation. Editor(s): Justement, Louis B.; Siminovitch, Katherine A. Series: Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology. Num Pages: 282 pages, 5 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: MJCM; PSF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 17. Weight in Grams: 581.
Proper development and differentiation of B lymphocytes is es sential to ensure that an organism has the ability to mount an effective humoral immune response against foreign antigens. The immune system must maintain a balance between the deletion of harmful self-reactive B cells and the generation of a diverse rep ertoire of B cells that has the ability to recognize an almost un limited array of foreign antigens. The need to delete self-reactive cells is tempered by the need to avoid the generation of large functional holes in the repertoire of foreign antigen-specific B cells that patrol the periphery.
