Description
Abstract
Recent studies suggest that developmental check-points in B-lymphopoiesis are set in order to test the B cell receptor signaling competence. In these checkpoints ligand-independent and ligand-dependent receptor signals confer B-lymphopoiesis with positive and negative selection events. As a consequence, Blymphocytes are forced to make crucial fate decisions to determine developmental progression, survival or apoptosis. In here we review recent progress in unraveling molecular and cellular mechanisms for the role of B cell receptor signaling competence in determination of the B cell fate.
