Amplified B Lymphocyte CD40 Signaling Drives Regulatory B10 Cell Expansion in Mice

BACKGROUND: Aberrant CD40 ligand (CD154) expression occurs on both T cells and B cells in human lupus patients, which is suggested to enhance B cell CD40 signaling and play a role in disease pathogenesis. Transgenic mice expressing CD154 by their B cells (CD154(TG)) have an expanded spleen B cell po...
