The preference for switching to IgA expression by Peyer’s patch germinal center B cells is likely due to the intrinsic influence of their microenvironment
1 Dec 1991
Abstract excerpt
This study was aimed at determining whether the chronically activated physiologic state of Peyer's patch (PP) tissue is primarily responsible for the IgA isotype preference expressed by PP germinal centers (GC) and memory B cells. We have used reovirus type 1/Lang to stimulate acute, de novo GC reactions in lymph nodes (LN) or PP to test the possibility that the surface (s)IgA component of enteric responses is...
