Background & Aims: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death. Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a significant cause of HCC. Current treatment options for HCC are very limited. Recent evidence highlights B cells as key drivers in MASLD progression toward HCC. However, it remains unclear whether multiple B cell populations or a distinct B cell subset regulates inflammatory responses during liver disease progression. The scope of this study was to define protumorigenic B cell subsets in MASLD and HCC. Methods: Multicolor flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence analyses were performed to investigate B cell populations locally (in liver tissue) and systemically (in the blood) in mice with MASLD (n = 6) and HCC (n = 5–6). The results obtained in mice were also verified in patients with MASLD (n = 19) and HCC (n = 16). Results: Our study revealed an increase of two regulatory B cell (Breg) subsets, CD19+B220+CD5+CD1d+ (p |
