Seasonal Variation in Desert Tortoise Immune Function
… assays measured the ability of constitutive natural antibodies and complement proteins to kill a standard strain of Escherichia coli. Ratios of heterophils to lymphocytes were used to infer relative levels of chronic stress and/or activity among the four seasons. Bacteriocidal capacity was …

Dysregulation of of phospholipid-specific phagocytosis by B1 B cells in diet-induced obese mice
… antigen recognized by B1 B cell-derived natural antibodies. These antibodies play important roles in immune defense as well as tissue homeostasis. Here we report that B1 cells preferentially phagocytose PtC-coated beads, differing from that of conventional macrophages. We further attest …

Immunotherapy for Alzheimer’s Disease: IVIg Delivery to the Hippocampus in a Mouse Model of Amyloidosis
… trial using intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIg) - natural antibodies collected from the plasma of healthy blood donors and shown to reduce AD-related pathologies in mouse models - recently failed to prevent cognitive decline in people living with AD. IVIg treatment efficacy may be suboptimal due to …

B-cell development and function in the absence of the spleen
… observation. B-1a cells are a major source of natural antibodies which are present in serum without prior infection. Congruent with the absence of B-1a cells, serum IgM levels are reduced in Hox11-/- mice. Splenectomy of wild-type mice demonstrated that the spleen is also important for the …

IMPORTANCE OF SLOW EMBRYONIC DEVELOPMENT IN OFFSPRING AND ADULT IMMUNE FUNCTION
Why species differ in rate of development and quality of offspring is a central question in life history theory. A physiological trade-off is thought to occur between the rate of development and enhancement of internal systems, such as immune function, which determine high offspring quality. For …
