Background: Orofacial granulomatosis (OFG) is a chronic, disfiguring, granulomatous inflammation of the lips and oral mucosa. The pathogenesis is unknown, but it has been linked previously to Crohn's disease (CD) and more recently to dietary sensitiv

Affinity maturation is a process by which low-affinity antibodies are transformed into highly specific antibodies in germinal centres. This process occurs by hypermutation of immunoglobulin heavy chain variable (IgH V) region genes followed by select

Background & Aims: The intestinal lamina propria has traditionally been viewed as the effector site of mucosal immune responses. However, this view has been challenged with the identification, in the murine lamina propria, of an in situ class switch

Somatic hypermutation. which diversifies the immunoglobulin repertoire by introducing mutations into rearranged IgV genes, is dependent on the expression of activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID). It has been proposed that AID deaminates DNA dir

The contribution of peritoneal B cells to the intestinal lamina propria plasma cell population is well documented in mice, but unknown in humans. We have analyzed immunoglobulin (Ig) genes of human peritoneal B cells, because such genes show distinct

Immunoglobulins are known to be variably glycosylated. Although most carbohydrate is likely to be associated with the constant region, the variable region may also be glycosylated. Variable region glycosylation is known to be associated with antigen

The term Richter's syndrome is used to describe the transformation of chronic lymphatic leukaemia (CLL) into a high-grade systemic lymphoma and is associated with a poor prognosis. We have undertaken detailed molecular studies in two patients with cu

Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a low-grade primary splenic B cell lymphoma, originally thought to be related to splenic marginal zone B cells. Later studies showed that SMZL sometimes may be accompanied by villous lymphocytes in the periphe

In this work we have microdissected lamina propria plasma cells and used polymerase chain reaction and sequencing to investigate immunoglobulin (Ig) gene rearrangements and mutations in human intestine. In addition, specific primers were designed for

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Immunoglobulin (Ig)A contributes to the homeostatic balance between host and the intestinal microbiota. Mechanisms that initiate the IgA response are unclear and likely to differ between humans and animal models. We used multiple e
