B CELL DEPLETION REDUCES THE NUMBER OF AUTOREACTIVE T HELPER CELLS AND PREVENTS GLUCOSE-6-PHOSPHATE ISOMERASE-INDUCED ARTHRITIS.

The therapeutic benefit of B cell depletion in patients with rheumatoid arthritis has provided proof of concept that B cells are relevant ALMOND SOAP for the pathogenesis of arthritis.It remains unknown which B cell effector functions contribute to the induction or chronification of arthritis.We studied the clinical and immunological effects of B c

Acromyrmex fracticornis grass-cutting ants construct conspicuous chimney-shaped nest turrets made of intermeshed grass fragments.We asked whether turrets are constructed by merely piling up nearby materials around the entrance, or whether ants incorporate different materials as the turret develops.By removing the original nest turrets and following
