B-cell SIGLEC-5 engages T-cell components of the elastin receptor complex (ERC) to suppress inflammatory T-cell cytokines

Christopher J. M. Piper, Clive Metcalfe, Maana Layeghi…·Claudia Mauri

The paper identifies SIGLEC-5 as an inhibitory receptor on B-cells that suppresses T-cell inflammatory cytokines by engaging the elastin receptor complex.

Multi-step antibody class switching in a primary human response is restricted after IGHG2 and dependent on B cell maturation stage.

Guillem Montamat, Joseph Chi-Fung Ng, Alex Stewart…·Deborah K. Dunn‐Walters

The paper investigates antibody class switching dynamics in a primary human immune response, revealing multistep progression and memory B cell subtype dependence beyond IGHG2.
