Epstein-Barr virus infection transforms CD25+ B cells into antibody-secreting cells in rheumatoid arthritis patients.

Immunology - 1 Dec 2013

Brisslert Mikael, Rehnberg Maria, Bokarewa Maria I

Abstract excerpt

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection may initiate production of autoantibodies and development of cancer and autoimmune diseases. Here we outline phenotypic and functional changes in B cells of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) related to EBV infection. The B-cell phenotype was analysed in blood and bone marrow (BM) of RA patients who had EBV transcripts in BM (EBV(+) , n = 13) and in EBV(-) (n = 22) patients...
