Metabolic Reprogramming Commits Differentiation of Human CD27+IgD+ B Cells to Plasmablasts or CD27−IgD− Cells

Abstract: B cells play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, the relevance of the metabolic pathway in the differentiation of human B cell subsets remains unknown. In this article, we show that the combination of CpG/TLR9 and IFN-α markedly induced the differentiation of CD27IgD unswitched memory B cells into CD27CD38 plasmablasts. The response was accompanied by mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activation and increased lactate pro… Show more

“…93 While metabolic pathways in memory T cells have been studied extensively, memory B cell metabolism remains largely unexplored with a few recent exceptions. 97 It is possible that these functional differences are caused by enhanced sensitivity to toll-like receptor ligands by memory B cells. Memory B cells deficient in the autophagy gene ATG7 are present in normal numbers initially after immunization or infection with influenza, but then wane rapidly.…”

“…In the Roquin mouse model of lupus, activation of AMPK and inhibition of mTOR limited B cell differentiation into GC B and plasma cells, which was associated with a reduced disease activity [27]. In SLE patients, high mTOR activation in CD19 + B cells correlates with plasmablast numbers and disease activity [28] (Fig. 2).…”

“…In addition to CD4 + T cells, mTOR is overactivated in the B cells of SLE patients, and it correlates with plasmablast numbers and disease activity. 27 In the Roquin san/san lupus-prone mouse, treatment with either metformin or rapamycin inhibited B cell differentiation into GC B and plasma cells, and reduced disease activity, which implicated the AMPK/mTOR pathway in the activation of autoreactive B cells. 25 These results also suggest that a high basal level of mTOR activation may set a lower threshold for B cell activation and differentiation, although neither study in SLE patients or in the Roquin san/san mice could distinguish B-cell intrinsic mTOR activation.…”
