Rheumatoid arthritis patients express a skewed repertoire of polyclonal, hypomutated B-cell receptors
2019-09-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Objectives</h4> The success of B cell depletion therapy in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) therapy testifies to their importance in disease pathogenesis, but the precise B cells mediating this are unclear. For example, it is unknown if RA patients predominantly express a limited number of circulating clonally expanded populations of B cells with highly mutated B cell antigen receptors (BCRs) that would constitute a...
