“…Similar findings were reported by Bondada et al (25) who found that purified B cells were unable to produce Abs against TNP-Ficoll, a TI-2 Ag. This is at odds with previously published data that indicate that the Ab response in athymic nude mice is essentially unchanged relative to euthymic mice (20,21), indicating that the Ab response to caps-PS can occur independent of T lymphocytes.…”

“…Garg et al (28) showed that, in contrast to in vitro culture of spleen cells, in vitro culture of lymph node cells did not respond to caps-PS, and that addition of APCs isolated from spleen cells enabled the lymph node to respond to caps-PS. It was further put forward that defects in APC function might play a critical role in the failure of neonates to respond to caps-PS (29).…”

“…We recently proposed that PEG on the PEGylated liposome stimulates the immune system as one of the TI antigens, 37,38) such as bacterial polysaccharide and polyvinyl pyrrolidone. 39) Once the PEGylated proteins reach the spleen, they may bind and crosslink to anti-PEG IgM expressed on the surface of B cells, and consequently trigger the production of an anti-PEG IgM. With respect to PEGylated liposome, we showed that lipid dose for injection is one of crucial factors to determine the level of anti-PEG IgM induction; the higher the dose the smaller the anti-PEG IgM induction.…”

“…Deficiencies in MZ B cells are also associated with elevated risk of pneumococcal infection and poor antibody responses to capsular polysaccharides 12, 13. Invasive pneumococcal disease from S. pneumoniae infection is a leading cause of mortality in people > 65 years old,14 and the efficacy of vaccines against this disease is decreased in the elderly 15. Although many studies have addressed the ageing‐related changes to the thymus, T cells and T‐cell‐dependent antibody responses, nothing was known of how ageing influenced the function of MZ B cells and their rapid induction of TI antibody responses.…”
