22.5% for IgG memory B cell antibodies; MannCWhitney = 0.0286). are efficiently counterselected at two tolerance checkpoints before becoming circulating naive B cells (1, 2). Antigen-mediated activation of naive B cells in the presence of T-cell help induces germinal centers and N6,N6-Dimethyladenosine the development of memory space B cells and long-lived bone marrow plasma cells that communicate high affinity, isotype class-switched antibodies (3, 4). Remarkably, compared with naive B cells, circulating IgG-positive memory space B cells are significantly enriched for self-reactive and polyreactive antibodies (5). These antibodies develop in the germinal center from nonCself-reactive or polyreactive precursors by somatic mutations and appear in the serum of healthy humans in low amounts (6). Whether cells generating self-reactive and polyreactive IgG can enter the bone marrow N6,N6-Dimethyladenosine plasma cell N6,N6-Dimethyladenosine compartment has…
