Institute of Anatomy and Cell Biology, University of Marburg, Germany
J Histochem Cytochem 51:655-64. 2003..This may have consequences for the immigration of recirculating lymphocytes and for initial interactions among antigen-specific T- and B-lymphocytes... - Human blood IgM "memory" B cells are circulating splenic marginal zone B cells harboring a prediversified immunoglobulin repertoireSandra Weller
, Paris, France
Blood 104:3647-54. 2004..It is therefore proposed that these IgM(+)IgD(+)CD27(+) B cells provide the splenic marginal zone with a diversified and protective preimmune repertoire in charge of the responses against encapsulated bacteria...
