  • Defining Natural Antibodies
    PERSPECTIVE published: 26 July 2017 doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2017.00872 Defining Natural Antibodies Nichol E. Holodick1*, Nely Rodríguez-Zhurbenko2 and Ana María Hernández2* 1 Department of Biomedical Sciences, Center for Immunobiology, Western Michigan University Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine, Kalamazoo, MI, United States, 2 Natural Antibodies Group, Tumor Immunology Division, Center of Molecular Immunology, Havana, Cuba The traditional definition of natural antibodies (NAbs) states that these antibodies are present prior to the body encountering cognate antigen, providing a first line of defense against infection thereby, allowing time for a specific antibody response to be mounted. The literature has a seemingly common definition of NAbs; however, as our knowledge of antibodies and B cells is refined, re-evaluation of the common definition of NAbs may be required. Defining NAbs becomes important as the function of NAb production is used to define B cell subsets (1) and as these important molecules are shown to play numerous roles in the immune system (Figure 1). Herein, we aim to briefly summarize our current knowledge of NAbs in the context of initiating a discussion within the field of how such an important and multifaceted group of molecules should be defined. Edited by: Keywords: natural antibody, antibodies, natural antibody repertoire, B-1 cells, B cell subsets, B cells Harry W. Schroeder, University of Alabama at Birmingham, United States NATURAL ANTIBODY (NAb) PRODUCING CELLS Reviewed by: Andre M. Vale, Both murine and human NAbs have been discussed in detail since the late 1960s (2, 3); however, Federal University of Rio cells producing NAbs were not identified until 1983 in the murine system (4, 5).
