However, the mechanisms that underlie the development of autoreactive B cells are not well understood. Here, we review recent studies leveraging novel techniques to identify and characterize (auto)antigen-specific B cells. The insights gained from such studies pertaining to the mechanisms involved in the escape of tolerance checkpoints and the activation of autoreactive B cells are discussed.

Abstract: The ability of T cells to identify foreign antigens and mount an efficient immune response while limiting activation upon recognition of self and self-associated peptides is critical. Multiple tolerance mechanisms work in concert to prevent the generation and activation of self-reactive T cells. T cell tolerance is tightly regulated, as defects in these processes can lead to devastating disease; a wide variety of autoimmune diseases and, more recently, adverse immune-related events associated with checkpoint blockade immunotherapy have been linked to a breakdown in T cell tolerance. The quantity and quality of antigen receptor signaling depend on a variety of parameters that include T cell receptor affinity and avidity for peptide. Autoreactive T cell fate choices (e.g., deletion, anergy, regulatory T cell development) are highly dependent on the strength of T cell receptor interactions with self-peptide. However, less is known about how differences in the strength Citation: This, S.; Valbon, S.F.; Lebel, of T cell receptor signaling during differentiation influences the ‘function’ and persistence of anergic M.-È.; Melichar, H.J. -
B Lymphocytes in Neuromyelitis Optica
VIEWS & REVIEWS B lymphocytes in neuromyelitis optica Jeffrey L. Bennett, MD, ABSTRACT PhD Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an inflammatory autoimmune disorder of the CNS that predomi- ’ Kevin C. O Connor, PhD nantly affects the spinal cord and optic nerves. A majority (approximately 75%) of patients with Amit Bar-Or, MD, FRCP NMO are seropositive for autoantibodies against the astrocyte water channel aquaporin-4 Scott S. Zamvil, MD, (AQP4). These autoantibodies are predominantly IgG1, and considerable evidence supports their PhD pathogenicity, presumably by binding to AQP4 on CNS astrocytes, resulting in astrocyte injury Bernhard Hemmer, MD and inflammation. Convergent clinical and laboratory-based investigations have indicated that Thomas F. Tedder, PhD B cells play a fundamental role in NMO immunopathology. Multiple mechanisms have been H.-Christian von hypothesized: AQP4 autoantibody production, enhanced proinflammatory B cell and plasmablast Büdingen, MD activity, aberrant B cell tolerance checkpoints, diminished B cell regulatory function, and loss of Olaf Stuve, MD, PhD B cell anergy. Accordingly, many current off-label therapies for NMO deplete B cells or modulate Michael R. Yeaman, PhD their activity. Understanding the role and mechanisms whereby B cells contribute to initiation, Terry J. Smith, MD maintenance, and propagation of disease activity is important to advancing our understanding Christine Stadelmann, of NMO pathogenesis and developing effective disease-specific therapies.

Type 1 Regulatory T Cells: a New Mechanism of Peripheral Immune Tolerance

All rights reserved 1672-7681/15 $32.00 www.nature.com/cmi REVIEW Type 1 regulatory T cells: a new mechanism of peripheral immune tolerance Hanyu Zeng, Rong Zhang, Boquan Jin and Lihua Chen The lack of immune response to an antigen, a process known as immune tolerance, is essential for the preservation of immune homeostasis. To date, two mechanisms that drive immune tolerance have been described extensively: central tolerance and peripheral tolerance. Under the new nomenclature, thymus-derived regulatory T (tTreg) cells are the major mediators of central immune tolerance, whereas peripherally derived regulatory T (pTreg) cells function to regulate 1 peripheral immune tolerance. A third type of Treg cells, termed iTreg, represents only the in vitro-induced Treg cells . Depending on whether the cells stably express Foxp3, pTreg, and iTreg cells may be divided into two subsets: the classical 1 1 1 2 2 CD4 Foxp3 Treg cells and the CD4 Foxp3 type 1 regulatory T (Tr1) cells . This review focuses on the discovery, associated biomarkers, regulatory functions, methods of induction, association with disease, and clinical trials of Tr1 cells.
