  1. This costimulatory molecule on activated T cells binds to CD40 on B cells, providing essential signals for B cell activation, proliferation, and class switching.
  2. This B cell-attracting chemokine guides B cells to B cell follicles in secondary lymphoid organs where they can encounter antigen and undergo activation.
  3. - This early developmental stage is characterized by heavy chain gene rearrangement and expression of CD19 and CD10 but lacks surface immunoglobulin.
  4. This TNF family cytokine promotes B cell survival and maturation, particularly during the transition from immature to mature B cell stages in the periphery.
  5. This recombinase enzyme, along with RAG 2, catalyzes the V(D)J recombination process that creates diverse immunoglobulin genes in developing lymphocytes.
  6. This state of functional unresponsiveness occurs when B cells encounter self-antigens without proper costimulatory signals, rendering them unable to mount an immune response.
  7. This primary lymphoid organ serves as the site of B cell development from hematopoietic stem cells through the immature B cell stage.
  8. This mechanism ensures that each B cell expresses only one functional heavy chain and one functional light chain by silencing the second allele once a productive rearrangement occurs.
