pubmed:abstractText |
Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of autoantibodies. One of the unique targets of the immune system in systemic lupus erythematosus is Sm, a ribonucleoprotein present in all cells. To understand the regulation of B cells specific to the Sm Ag in normal mice, we have generated an Ig H chain transgenic mouse (2-12H Tg). 2-12H Tg mice produce B cells specific for the Sm that remain tolerant due to ignorance. We demonstrate here that anti-Sm B cells of 2-12H Tg mice can differentiate into Sm-specific peritoneal B-1 cells that remain tolerant. Differentiation to B-1 and tolerance are governed by the strength of B cell receptor signaling, since manipulations of the B cell receptor coreceptors CD19 and CD22 affect anti-Sm B cell differentiation and autoantibody production. These results suggest a differentiation scheme in which peripheral ignorance to Sm is maintained in mice by the differentiation of anti-Sm B cells to B-1 cells that have increased activation thresholds.
