The role of CD40-CD154 interaction in antiviral T cell-independent IgG responsesE Szomolanyi-Tsuda
Department of Pathology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA 01655, USA
J Immunol 164:5877-82. 2000..Our studies demonstrate that, although about half of the TI IgG responses to PyV are independent of CD40-CD40L interactions, these interactions occur in T cell-deficient mice and enhance antiviral TI Ab responses...

Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA 01655, USA
J Immunol 170:3819-27. 2003..hermsii. Together these results support the model that B1b cells generate the T-independent IgM required for the control and resolution of relapsing fever borreliosis...
Costimulation requirements for antiviral CD8+ T cells differ for acute and persistent phases of polyoma virus infectionChristopher C Kemball
Department of Pathology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA 01655, USA
J Immunol 176:1814-24. 2006..Taken together, these data indicate that CD8+ T cells primed within the distinct microenvironments of acute vs persistent virus infection differ in their costimulation requirements...
NK cells and gammadelta T cells mediate resistance to polyomavirus-induced tumorsRabinarayan Mishra
Department of Pathology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, Massachusetts, United States of America
PLoS Pathog 6:e1000924. 2010..Our findings demonstrate a protective role for NK and gammadelta T cells against naturally occurring virus-induced tumors and suggest the involvement of NKG2D-mediated mechanisms...
Generation of protective T cell-independent antiviral antibody responses in SCID mice reconstituted with follicular or marginal zone B cellsHeath M Guay
Department of Pathology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, 01655, USA
J Immunol 183:518-23. 2009..These findings demonstrate the plasticity of the B cell subsets in virus-infected hosts and show for the first time that B cells derived exclusively from Fo B cells can effectively function in antiviral TI-2 responses...
MyD88 is required for the formation of long-term humoral immunity to virus infectionHeath M Guay
Department of Pathology, Program in Immunology and Virology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA 01655, USA
J Immunol 178:5124-31. 2007..Our findings show that MyD88-dependent signaling pathways in B cells are essential for effectively generating long-term Ab responses and implicate a role for TLR in the formation of long-term humoral immunity...
The antiviral CD8+ T cell response is differentially dependent on CD4+ T cell help over the course of persistent infectionChristopher C Kemball
Department of Pathology, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA 30322, USA
J Immunol 179:1113-21. 2007..In summary, these studies show that CD4(+) T cells differentially affect CD8(+) T cell responses over the course of a persistent virus infection...
Dynamics and magnitude of virus-induced polyclonal B cell activation mediated by BCR-independent presentation of viral antigenEvan R Jellison
Department of Pathology, Program in Immunology and Virology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA 01655, USA
Eur J Immunol 37:119-28. 2007..This approach, therefore, formally demonstrates and quantifies a virus-induced polyclonal proliferation and differentiation of B cells, which, due to their high proportion, would mostly have BCR not specific for the virus...
Immunological memory to viral infectionsRaymond M Welsh
Department of Pathology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, Massachusetts 01655, USA
Annu Rev Immunol 22:711-43. 2004..Here we describe how T and B cell memory is generated in response to virus infections and how these cells respond when the host is infected again by similar or different viruses...
Allogeneic differences in the dependence on CD4+ T-cell help for virus-specific CD8+ T-cell differentiationChristopher C Kemball
Department of Pathology, Emory University School of Medicine, Woodruff Memorial Research Building, Room 7307, 101 Woodruff Circle, Atlanta, GA 30322, USA
J Virol 81:13743-53. 2007..Our findings demonstrate that dependence on CD4(+) T-cell help for antiviral CD8(+) T-cell effector differentiation can vary among allogeneic strains of inbred mice...
