Are the HLA class 2 antigens present on HLA class 2 presenting cells heterogeneous for the possible combinations of each inherited allele within the same cell, or does each HLA class 2 presenting cell only present one variant ( ie: allelic exclusion or clonal expression for a given clone of B cells or a given histiocyte or dendritic cell) ?? My question is the same for HLA class 1 cells (?).
oooofffft waht a question! =Admittedly i have never done a deep a dive into the different classes of IgA - defintely let me know if you solve this mystery!
@@kristeenbarker Can the innate immune system, throgh the NK Cell, iverpowering the immoglobin class switching? Which chronic infection can interfere with the cd19 production ?
Amazing explanation! Hence, in chronic autoimmune diseases, are the autoantibodies produced by plasma cells or memory B cells? Does this depends on the type of disease?
Niccolo, this is such a fascinating question. As i was researching this, i understood the B cells (at last) then I started to question how rituximab even works because it doesn't target plasma cells after all - and so there's something more to this - I'm hoping to get to the bottom of this question at some stage but please let me know if you find clarity before i do! :) Immunology = a journey!
@@kristeenbarker Kristeen what a wonderful reply! I will definitely let you know and I thought about the same thing given that, as you said, Rituximab does not work on plasma cells. I am on an impossible mission of curing my own multisistemic autoimmune (in part) diseases (MECFS, POTS and Autonomic SFN). I am sure there is a lot of work to be advanced in research. 😊May I ask you, given my ignorance, do B cells become eventually plasma cell? And if so, how long does the whole process take? I am sure the answer will be not straightforward. 😅 Thanks again!
@@niccolowrld they say patients are experts in their own condition, and i very much hope your journey leads you to cure. So some b cells become plasma cells, some remain as memory cells and can become plasma cells later. in terms of timeline, i'm not sure exactly - will be slower the first time the B cell sees the foreign particle, and it will switch from IgM antibodies to IgG antibodies along the way, so it's sort of days-weeks initially. Memory B cell can spring into action much faster (the rationale for vaccination) - hope that helps and again my best wishes for your health. Kristeen
your a life saver wow i thought this topic was difficult until i found your videos.
Aw Mohamed thank you so much for watching. You have no idea how much it means to me, knowing that this helped your studies :) my best wishes Kristeen
this is amazingly in-depth! although as a teenager it's hard to take in all this, this process is far more complicated than I imagined!
Isn't the human body incredible! thanks so much for stopping by. :)
Excellent synopsis
Wonderful thanks very much
i absolutely love this video. Thank you so much
Great video! Thanks

Then iga2 or iga6 are produced by B1 or B2?

The best video yet
Yay so excited u enjoyed it!!!
what is the function of plasma cell during an immune response
Forming antibodies

@@niccolowrldb cells gets activated becomes plasma cells
That is Epic
Thank you so much Ameen, I'm so glad you enjoyed it :)
