B细胞耗竭在自身免疫性疾病中的明显功效增加了靶向B细胞的兴趣。下一代疗法的一个目标是开发阻断B细胞活化并保护保持B细胞记忆的静息非自身免疫细胞的治疗方法。要做到这一点,人们需要了解B细胞是如何被激活的,以及哪些受体和细胞内信号通路调节这一过程。本文将总结B细胞活化途径,并说明如何在开发类风湿关节炎的新疗法中靶向这些途径。
The apparent efficacy of B-cell depletion in autoimmune diseases has increased interest in targeting B cells. One goal of next generation therapies is to develop treatments that block B-cell activation and preserve resting nonautoimmune cells that maintain B cell memory. To do so, one needs to understand how B cells are activated and what receptors and intracellular signaling pathways regulate this process. This paper will summarize B-cell activation pathways and illustrate how these are being targeted in the development of new treatments for rheumatoid arthritis.
