The role of CD40 ligand in systemic lupus erythematosus

Lupus
J Yazdany, J Davis

Abstract

CD40 ligand (CD40L, also known as CD154 or gp39) is a member of the tumor necrosis superfamily of transmembrane proteins. The interaction of CD40L on activated T cells with its receptor, CD40 on B cells, is necessary for normal immune function, including B cell differentiation, germinal center formation, and antibody isotype switching. Abnormal expression of CD40L in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) may contribute to autoantibody production and disease pathogenesis. Although murine models of monoclonal antibodies directed against CD40L initially showed promise, human trials either have failed to demonstrate efficacy or have been associated with adverse events. This review will summarize in vitro and murine model data and human clinical trials involving anti-CD40L monoclonal antibody.

B cell Differentiation

Depending on the signal received through the B cell receptor and other receptors, B cells differentiate into follicular or marginal zone B cells. Here is the latest research pertaining to this differentiation process.
