Cxcr4 desensitization is an essential regulatory mechanism controlling the extra-follicular B cell response
2019-02-01
Abstract excerpt
The signaling axis formed by the chemokine CXCL12 and its receptor CXCR4 plays an important role in B cell development and activation and is finely regulated by a process termed desensitization. Mutations leading to a truncation of the C-terminus tail of CXCR4 and thus to a defective desensitization have been reported in two diseases, a rare immunodeficiency called the WHIM syndrome and a B cell plasmacytoma calle...
