The Ancient Cytokine BAFF- and APRIL-like Molecule Regulates the Functionality of Teleost IgM+ B Cells Similarly to BAFF and APRIL
Abstract
TNF superfamily (TNFSF) members, such as BAFF and a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), emerged in vertebrates as key regulators of B cell homeostasis and activation. Many cartilaginous and teleost fish contain an additional gene, designated as BAFF- and APRIL-like molecule (BALM), of unknown function and lost in tetrapods. In this study, we have performed a wide characterization of the functions of BALM on naive B cells for the first time,...
