abstract：:The mechanism of polyclonal B cell activation in autoimmune diseases was investigated by using an autoreactive B cell clone established by somatic hybridization with B cells derived from NZB X NZW (B/W) F1 mice. Briefly, splenic B cells from B/W F1 mice were fused with M12.4.1, a mutant of a B cell line, in the presen...
