Themis2 lowers the threshold for B cell activation during positive selection
- Abstract:
-
The positive and negative selection of lymphocytes by antigen is central to adaptive immunity and self-tolerance, yet how this is determined by different antigens is incompletely understood. Here we report that Themis2 increased the positive selection of B1 cells and germinal center B cells by self and foreign antigens. We found that Themis2 lowered the threshold for B cell activation by low but not high avidity antigens. Themis2 constitutively bound the adaptor protein Grb2, src-kinase Lyn a...
