Preferential localization of human CD5+ B cells in the peritoneal cavity

Abstract

In a transgenic mouse model of autoimmune haemolytic anaemia, CD5+ B lymphocytes localized in the peritoneal cavity are shown to play an important role in the onset of autoimmune disease. The authors have examined whether CD5+ B cells are present in the peritoneal cavity of 12 human individuals with non-invasive gastrointestinal tumours and found that in humans CD5+ B cells preferentially lodge in the peritoneal cavity as compared to the peripheral blood and spleen while the numbers of the peritoneal B lymphocytes in humans are much lower than in mice and vary widely between individuals.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.

Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) occurs when antibodies directed against the person's own red blood cells (RBCs) cause them to burst (lyse), leading to an insufficient number of oxygen-carrying red blood cells in the circulation. Discover the latest research on AIHA here.
