Abstract:
:NZB mice demonstrate common and consistent abnormalities in B-cell activation and signalling. One of the hallmark characteristics of lupus disease is the prevalent hypergammaglobulinaemia, composed primarily of anti-nuclear antibodies. In addition to the hyperproliferation seen in mice exhibiting disease, the B cells also demonstrate a marked degree of hyperactivity in response to B-cell receptor occupancy. This points to an intrinsic defect in the signalling pathways regulating the response to an activation event. Correspondingly, B cells of NZB mice exhibit a significant lack of phosphatase activity, both at baseline and in response to stimulation. This is directly reflected by a higher level of phosphorylation of tyrosine residues. Individually, SAPK and SHIP-1, both players in the B-cell receptor signalling cascade, are also found to be abnormally phosphorylated in the NZB mouse.
