Human immunoglobulin selection associated with class switch and possible tolerogenic origins for Cδ class-switched B cells

Abstract excerpt

Current paradigms of peripheral B cell selection suggest that autoreactive B cells are controlled by clonal deletion, anergy, and developmental arrest. We report that changes to the human antibody repertoire likely resulting from these mechanisms both for a well-characterized autoreactivity from antibodies encoded by the V(H)4-34 gene and for other hallmarks of an autoreactive repertoire are apparent mainly for...
