Abstract：
:Although the relative contributions of T cells and B cells in Sjögren's syndrome (SS) are far from being settled, recent studies have suggested a crucial role for B cells in its pathophysiology. Early investigations have focused on the ability of B cells to produce autoantibodies, and new studies have enlarged the range of their functions. For example, beyond the paradigm that T lymphocytes maintain strict control over B cells, the latter cells are now acknowledged to solicit their own help from the former cells and release a flurry of cytokines. Further, some of these B cells act as antigen-presenting cells. Increased levels of the B cell activating factor (BAFF) found in SS may be responsible for high numbers of circulating Bm2/Bm2' cells and associated functional abnormalities of B cells, such as a BAFF-induced increased expression of CD19, which decreases the required strength generated by antigen binding for transmitting its signal. This review reports compelling evidence that B cells are involved in the pathophysiology of SS. As this brings novel prospects for the treatment of the disease, it is no surprise that B cell ablative treatment has proven to be relatively efficacious in SS.
