Lecerf M, Lacombe RV, Dimitrov JD. Polyreactivity of antibodies from different B-cell subpopulations is determined by distinct sequence patterns of variable region. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1266668.

Abstract
An antibody molecule that can bind to multiple distinct antigens is defined as polyreactive. In the present study, we performed statistical analyses to assess sequence correlates of polyreactivity of >600 antibodies cloned from different B-cell types of healthy humans. The data revealed several sequence patterns of variable regions of heavy and light immunoglobulin chains that determine polyreactivity. The most prominent identified patterns were increased number of basic amino acid residues, reduced frequency of acidic residues, increased number of aromatic and hydrophobic residues, and longer length of CDR L1. Importantly, our study revealed that antibodies isolated from different B-cell populations used distinct sequence patterns (or combinations of them) for polyreactive antigen binding. Furthermore, we combined the data from sequence analyses with molecular modeling of selected polyreactive antibodies and demonstrated that human antibodies can use multiple pathways for achieving antigen-binding promiscuity. These data reconcile some contradictions in the literature regarding the determinants of antibody polyreactivity. Moreover, our study demonstrates that the mechanism of polyreactivity of antibodies evolves during immune response and might be tailored to specific functional properties of different B-cell compartments. Finally, these data can be of use for efforts in the development and engineering of therapeutic antibodies.

Abstract
To become specialized binders, antibodies undergo a process called affinity maturation to maximize their binding affinity. Despite this process, some antibodies retain low-affinity binding to diverse epitopes in a phenomenon called polyreactivity. Here we seek to understand the molecular basis of this polyreactivity in antibodies. Our results highlight that polyreactive antigen-binding fragments (Fabs) bind their targets with low affinities, comparable to T cell receptor recognition of autologous classical major histocompatibility complex. Extensive mutagenic studies find no singular amino acid residue or biochemical property responsible for polyreactive interaction, suggesting that polyreactive antibodies use multiple strategies for engagement. Finally, our crystal structures and all-atom molecular dynamics simulations of polyreactive Fabs show increased rigidity compared to their monoreactive relatives, forming a neutral and accessible platform for diverse antigens to bind. Together, these data support a cooperative strategy of rigid neutrality in establishing the polyreactive status of an antibody molecule.

HIV-1 treatment timing shapes the human intestinal memory B-cell repertoire to commensal bacteria. Nat Commun 2023; 14:6326.

Abstract
HIV-1 infection causes severe alterations of gut mucosa, microbiota and immune system, which can be curbed by early antiretroviral therapy. Here, we investigate how treatment timing affects intestinal memory B-cell and plasmablast repertoires of HIV-1-infected humans. We show that only class-switched memory B cells markedly differ between subjects treated during the acute and chronic phases of infection. Intestinal memory B-cell monoclonal antibodies show more prevalent polyreactive and commensal bacteria-reactive clones in late- compared to early-treated individuals. Mirroring this, serum IgA polyreactivity and commensal-reactivity are strongly increased in late-treated individuals and correlate with intestinal permeability and systemic inflammatory markers. Polyreactive blood IgA memory B cells, many of which egressed from the gut, are also substantially enriched in late-treated individuals. Our data establish gut and systemic B-cell polyreactivity to commensal bacteria as hallmarks of chronic HIV-1 infection and suggest that initiating treatment early may limit intestinal B-cell abnormalities compromising HIV-1 humoral response.

Abstract
HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) can decrease viremia but are usually unable to counteract autologous viruses escaping the antibody pressure. Nonetheless, bNAbs may contribute to natural HIV-1 control in individuals off antiretroviral therapy (ART). Here, we describe a bNAb B cell lineage elicited in a post-treatment controller (PTC) that exhibits broad seroneutralization and show that a representative antibody from this lineage, EPTC112, targets a quaternary epitope in the glycan-V3 loop supersite of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein. The cryo-EM structure of EPTC112 complexed with soluble BG505 SOSIP.664 envelope trimers revealed interactions with N301- and N156-branched N-glycans and the 324GDIR327 V3 loop motif. Although the sole contemporaneous virus circulating in this PTC was resistant to EPTC112, it was potently neutralized by autologous plasma IgG antibodies. Our findings illuminate how cross-neutralizing antibodies can alter the HIV-1 infection course in PTCs and may control viremia off-ART, supporting their role in functional HIV-1 cure strategies.

Abstract
The mechanisms of B-cell diversification differ greatly between aves and mammals, but both produce B cells and antibodies capable of supporting an effective immune response. To see how differences in the generation of diversity might affect overall repertoire diversity, we have compared the diversity characteristics of immunoglobulin genes from domestic chickens to those from humans. Both use V(D)J gene rearrangement and somatic hypermutation, but only chickens use somatic gene conversion. A range of diversity analysis tools were used to investigate multiple aspects of amino acid diversity at both the germline and repertoire levels. The effect of differing amino acid usages on antibody characteristics was assessed. At both the germline and repertoire levels, chickens exhibited lower amino acid diversity in comparison to the human immunoglobulin genes, especially outside of the complementarity-determining region (CDR). Chickens were also found to possess much larger and more hydrophilic CDR3s with a higher predicted protein binding potential, suggesting that the antigen-binding site in chicken antibodies is more flexible and more polyreactive than that seen in human antibodies.

Abstract
Kefir consists of a large number of probiotics, which can regulate or shape the balance of intestinal microbiota, and enhance the host's immune response. Kefir microbiota can shape the mucosal immunity of the body through SCFAs, EPS, polypeptides, lactic acid, and other metabolites and microbial antigens themselves, and this shaping may have time windows and specific pathways. Kefir can regulate antibody SIgA and IL-10 levels to maintain intestinal homeostasis, and its secreted SIgA can shape the stable microbiota system by wrapping and binding different classes of microorganisms. The incidence of intestinal inflammation is closely linked to the development and maturation of intestinal mucosal immunity. Based on summarizing the existing research results on Kefir, its metabolites, and immune system development, this paper proposes to use Kefir, traditional fermented food with natural immune-enhancing components and stable functional microbiota, as an intervention method. Early intervention in the immune system may seize the critical window period of mucosal immunity and stimulate the development and maturation of intestinal mucosal immunity in time.

Abstract
Memory B-cell and antibody responses to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein contribute to long-term immune protection against severe COVID-19, which can also be prevented by antibody-based interventions. Here, wide SARS-CoV-2 immunoprofiling in Wuhan COVID-19 convalescents combining serological, cellular, and monoclonal antibody explorations revealed humoral immunity coordination. Detailed characterization of a hundred SARS-CoV-2 spike memory B-cell monoclonal antibodies uncovered diversity in their repertoire and antiviral functions. The latter were influenced by the targeted spike region with strong Fc-dependent effectors to the S2 subunit and potent neutralizers to the receptor-binding domain. Amongst those, Cv2.1169 and Cv2.3194 antibodies cross-neutralized SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern, including Omicron BA.1 and BA.2. Cv2.1169, isolated from a mucosa-derived IgA memory B cell demonstrated potency boost as IgA dimers and therapeutic efficacy as IgG antibodies in animal models. Structural data provided mechanistic clues to Cv2.1169 potency and breadth. Thus, potent broadly neutralizing IgA antibodies elicited in mucosal tissues can stem SARS-CoV-2 infection, and Cv2.1169 and Cv2.3194 are prime candidates for COVID-19 prevention and treatment.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment hosts antibody-secreting cells (ASCs) associated with a favorable prognosis in several types of cancer. Patient-derived antibodies have diagnostic and therapeutic potential; yet, it remains unclear how antibodies gain autoreactivity and target tumors. Here, we found that somatic hypermutations (SHMs) promote antibody antitumor reactivity against surface autoantigens in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC). Patient-derived tumor cells were frequently coated with IgGs. Intratumoral ASCs in HGSOC were both mutated and clonally expanded and produced tumor-reactive antibodies that targeted MMP14, which is abundantly expressed on the tumor cell surface. The reversion of monoclonal antibodies to their germline configuration revealed two types of classes: one dependent on SHMs for tumor binding and a second with germline-encoded autoreactivity. Thus, tumor-reactive autoantibodies are either naturally occurring or evolve through an antigen-driven selection process. These findings highlight the origin and potential applicability of autoantibodies directed at surface antigens for tumor targeting in cancer patients.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neuroinflammatory disease characterized by immune cell infiltration in the central nervous system and destruction of myelin sheaths. Alterations of gut bacteria abundances are present in MS patients. In mouse models of neuroinflammation, depletion of microbiota results in amelioration of symptoms, and gavage with MS patient microbiota exacerbates the disease and inflammation via Th17 cells. On the other hand, depletion of B cells using anti-CD20 is an efficient therapy in MS, and growing evidence shows an important deleterious role of B cells in MS pathology. However, the failure of TACI-Ig treatment in MS highlighted the potential regulatory role of plasma cells. The mechanism was recently demonstrated involving IgA+ plasma cells, specific for gut microbiota and producing IL-10. IgA-coated bacteria in MS patient gut exhibit also modifications. We will focus our review on IgA interactions with gut microbiota and IgA+ B cells in MS. These recent data emphasize new pathways of neuroinflammation regulation in MS.

Abstract
Decrypting the B cell ontogeny of HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) is paramount for vaccine design. Here, we characterized IgA and IgG bNAbs of three distinct B cell lineages in a viremic controller, two of which comprised only IgG+ or IgA+ blood memory B cells; the third combined both IgG and IgA clonal variants. 7-269 bNAb in the IgA-only lineage displayed the highest neutralizing capacity despite limited somatic mutation, and delayed viral rebound in humanized mice. bNAbs in all three lineages targeted the N332 glycan supersite. The 2.8-Å resolution cryo-EM structure of 7-269-BG505 SOSIP.664 complex showed a similar pose as 2G12, on an epitope mainly composed of sugar residues comprising the N332 and N295 glycans. Binding and cryo-EM structural analyses showed that antibodies from the two other lineages interact mostly with glycans N332 and N386. Hence, multiple B cell lineages of IgG and IgA bNAbs focused on a unique HIV-1 site of vulnerability can codevelop in HIV-1 viremic controllers.

Abstract
Rare individuals can naturally clear chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and acquire protection from reinfection as conferred by vaccination. To examine the protective humoral response against HBV, we cloned and characterized human antibodies specific to the viral surface glycoproteins (HBsAg) from memory B cells of HBV vaccinees and controllers. We found that human HBV antibodies are encoded by a diverse set of immunoglobulin genes and recognize various conformational HBsAg epitopes. Strikingly, HBsAg-specific memory B cells from natural controllers mainly produced neutralizing antibodies able to cross-react with several viral genotypes. Furthermore, monotherapy with the potent broadly neutralizing antibody Bc1.187 suppressed viremia in vivo in HBV mouse models and led to post-therapy control of the infection in a fraction of animals. Thus, human neutralizing HBsAg antibodies appear to play a key role in the spontaneous control of HBV and represent promising immunotherapeutic tools for achieving HBV functional cure in chronically infected humans.

Abstract
Antibodies are critical components of adaptive immunity, binding with high affinity to pathogenic epitopes. Antibodies undergo rigorous selection to achieve this high affinity, yet some maintain an additional basal level of low affinity, broad reactivity to diverse epitopes, a phenomenon termed ‘polyreactivity’. While polyreactivity has been observed in antibodies isolated from various immunological niches, the biophysical properties that allow for promiscuity in a protein selected for high-affinity binding to a single target remain unclear. Using a database of over 1000 polyreactive and non-polyreactive antibody sequences, we created a bioinformatic pipeline to isolate key determinants of polyreactivity. These determinants, which include an increase in inter-loop crosstalk and a propensity for a neutral binding surface, are sufficient to generate a classifier able to identify polyreactive antibodies with over 75% accuracy. The framework from which this classifier was built is generalizable, and represents a powerful, automated pipeline for future immune repertoire analysis. To defend itself against bacteria and viruses, the body depends on a group of proteins known as antibodies. Each subset of antibodies undergoes a rigorous training regimen to ensure it recognizes a single epitope well – that is, one specific region on the surface of foreign, harmful organisms. Most antibodies stick extremely tightly to their one unique epitope, but some can also weakly bind to molecules that are vastly different from their main trained targets. This feature – known as polyreactivity – can in some cases help the immune system fight against multiple strains of viruses. On the other hand, when antibodies are designed in the laboratory to treat diseases, this characteristic can sometimes lead to the failure of pre-clinical trials. Yet it is currently unclear why some antibodies are polyreactive when others are not. To investigate this question, Boughter et al. compared over 1,000 polyreactive and non-polyreactive antibody sequences from a large database, revealing differences in the physical properties of the region of the antibodies that attaches to epitopes. Using these defining features, Boughter et al. went on to design a new piece of freely available, automated software that could predict which antibodies would be polyreactive more than 75% of the time. Such software could ultimately help to guide the design of antibody-based treatments, while bypassing the need for costly laboratory tests.

Abstract
HIV-1 can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to penetrate the brain and infect target cells, causing neurocognitive disorders as a result of neuroinflammation and brain damage. The HIV-1 envelope spike gp160 is partially required for viral transcytosis across the BBB endothelium. But do antibodies developing in infected individuals and targeting the HIV-1 gp160 glycoproteins block HIV-1 transcytosis through the BBB? We addressed this issue and discovered that anti-gp160 antibodies do not block HIV-1 transport; instead, free viruses and those in complex with antibodies can transit across BBB endothelial cells. Importantly, we found that only neutralizing antibodies could inhibit posttranscytosis viral infectivity, highlighting their ability to protect susceptible brain cells from HIV-1 infection. HIV-1 can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to penetrate the brain and infect target cells, causing neurocognitive disorders as a result of neuroinflammation and brain damage. Here, we examined whether antibodies targeting the HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins interfere with the transcytosis of virions across the human BBB endothelium. We found that although the viral envelope spike gp160 is required for optimal endothelial cell endocytosis, no anti-gp160 antibodies blocked the BBB transcytosis of HIV-1 in vitro. Instead, both free viruses and those in complex with antibodies transited across endothelial cells in the BBB model, as observed by confocal microscopy. HIV-1 infectious capacity was considerably altered by the transcytosis process but still detectable, even in the presence of nonneutralizing antibodies. Only virions bound by neutralizing antibodies lacked posttranscytosis infectivity. Overall, our data support the role of neutralizing antibodies in protecting susceptible brain cells from HIV-1 infection despite their inability to inhibit viral BBB endocytic transport.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting human antigen CD20 (cluster of
differentiation 20) constitute important immunotherapies for the treatment
of B cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Type I and II therapeutic
mAbs differ in B cell binding properties and cytotoxic effects, reflecting
differential interaction mechanisms with CD20. Here we present 3.7- to
4.7-angstrom cryo–electron microscopy structures of full-length CD20 in
complexes with prototypical type I rituximab and ofatumumab and type II
obinutuzumab. The structures and binding thermodynamics demonstrate that
upon binding to CD20, type II mAbs form terminal complexes that preclude
recruitment of additional mAbs and complement components, whereas type I
complexes act as molecular seeds to increase mAb local concentration for
efficient complement activation. Among type I mAbs, ofatumumab complexes
display optimal geometry for complement recruitment. The uncovered
mechanisms should aid rational design of next-generation immunotherapies
targeting CD20.

Abstract
IgA antibodies are key immune effectors against invading pathogens but also possess essential immunoregulatory functions. Detecting and quantifying human IgA+ B-cell subsets and secreted IgA molecules is needed for investigating the protective, modulatory and pathophysiologic roles of IgAs. Here, we produced a recombinant tagged trimeric form of the streptococcal IgA-binding peptide (SAP) by transient transfection-based eukaryotic expression system. The trimeric SAP (tSAP) probe had a higher production yield and apparent binding affinity to human IgA1 and IgA2 immunoglobulins when compared to the dimeric SAP molecule classically used to purify IgAs. tSAP bound both monomeric and dimeric IgAs, and allowed immunoblot detection and ELISA quantification of serum IgA antibodies in humans and non-human primates. Fluorescently labeled tSAP also permitted an accurate quantification of circulating human blood IgA-expressing memory B cells by flow-cytometric analyses. Thus, the easy-to-produce high affinity recombinant tSAP probe we developed is a versatile and valuable tool to quantify secreted and membrane-bound human but also primate IgA immunoglobulins.

Abstract
Mucosal immune responses to HIV-1 involve the recognition of the viral envelope glycoprotein (gp)160 by tissue-resident B cells and subsequent secretion of antibodies. To characterize the B cells “sensing” HIV-1 in the gut of infected individuals, we probed monoclonal antibodies produced from single intestinal B cells binding to recombinant gp140 trimers. A large fraction of mucosal B cell antibodies were polyreactive and showed only low affinity to HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins, particularly the gp41 moiety. A few high-affinity gp140 antibodies were isolated but lacked neutralizing, potent ADCC, and transcytosis-blocking capacities. Instead, they displayed cross-reactivity with defined self-antigens. Specifically, intestinal HIV-1 gp41 antibodies targeting the heptad repeat 2 region (HR2) cluster II cross-reacted with the p38α mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 (MAPK14). Hence, physiologic polyreactivity of intestinal B cells and molecular mimicry-based self-reactivity of HIV-1 antibodies are two independent phenomena, possibly diverting and/or impairing mucosal humoral immunity to HIV-1. Polyreactive B cells in HIV-1+ intestinal mucosa interact with HIV-1 Env proteins High-affinity intestinal HIV-1 gp140 antibodies display poor antiviral activities Antibodies targeting the gp41 cluster II region cross-react with MAPK14

Abstract
Human high-affinity antibodies to pathogens often recognize unrelated ligands. The molecular origin and the role of this polyreactivity are largely unknown. Here, we report that HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) are frequently polyreactive, cross-reacting with non-HIV-1 molecules, including self-antigens. Mutating bNAb genes to increase HIV-1 binding and neutralization also results in de novo polyreactivity. Unliganded paratopes of polyreactive bNAbs with improved HIV-1 neutralization exhibit a conformational flexibility, which contributes to enhanced affinity of bNAbs to various HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins and non-HIV antigens. Binding adaptation of polyreactive bNAbs to the divergent ligands mainly involves hydrophophic interactions. Plasticity of bNAbs' paratopes may, therefore, facilitate accommodating divergent viral variants, but it simultaneously triggers promiscuous binding to non-HIV-1 antigens. Thus, a certain level of polyreactivity can be a mark of adaptable antibodies displaying optimal pathogens' recognition.

TLR9 signalling in HCV-associated atypical memory B cells triggers Th1 and rheumatoid factor autoantibody responses. J Hepatol 2019; 71:908-919. [PMID: 31279905 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhep.2019.06.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2018] [Revised: 06/24/2019] [Accepted: 06/27/2019] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection contributes to the development of autoimmune disorders such as cryoglobulinaemia vasculitis (CV). However, it remains unclear why only some individuals with HCV develop HCV-associated CV (HCV-CV). HCV-CV is characterized by the expansion of anergic CD19+CD27+CD21low/- atypical memory B cells (AtMs). Herein, we report the mechanisms by which AtMs participate in HCV-associated autoimmunity. METHODS The phenotype and function of peripheral AtMs were studied by multicolour flow cytometry and co-culture assays with effector T cells and regulatory T cells in 20 patients with HCV-CV, 10 chronicallyHCV-infected patients without CV and 8 healthy donors. We performed gene expression profile analysis of AtMs stimulated or not by TLR9. Immunoglobulin gene repertoire and antibody reactivity profiles of AtM-expressing IgM antibodies were analysed following single B cell FACS sorting and expression-cloning of monoclonal antibodies. RESULTS The Tbet+CD11c+CD27+CD21- AtM population is expanded in patients with HCV-CV compared to HCV controls without CV. TLR9 activation of AtMs induces a specific transcriptional signature centred on TNFα overexpression, and an enhanced secretion of TNFα and rheumatoid factor-type IgMs in patients with HCV-CV. AtMs stimulated through TLR9 promote type 1 effector T cell activation and reduce the proliferation of CD4+CD25hiCD127-/lowFoxP3+ regulatory T cells. AtM expansions display intraclonal diversity with immunoglobulin features of antigen-driven maturation. AtM-derived IgM monoclonal antibodies do not react against ubiquitous autoantigens or HCV antigens including NS3 and E2 proteins. Rather, AtM-derived antibodies possess rheumatoid factor activity and target unique epitopes on the human IgG-Fc region. CONCLUSION Our data strongly suggest a central role for TLR9 activation of AtMs in driving HCV-CV autoimmunity through rheumatoid factor production and type 1 T cell responses. LAY SUMMARY B cells are best known for their capacity to produce antibodies, which often play a deleterious role in the development of autoimmune diseases. During chronic hepatitis C, self-reactive B cells proliferate and can be responsible for autoimmune symptoms (arthritis, purpura, neuropathy, renal disease) and/or lymphoma. Direct-acting antiviral therapy clears the hepatitis C virus and eliminates deleterious B cells.

Phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein-4 (PEBP4) is increased in IgA nephropathy and is associated with IgA-positive B-cells in affected kidneys. J Autoimmun 2019; 105:102309.

Abstract
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common glomerulonephritis worldwide and a major cause of chronic kidney disease and failure. IgAN is driven by an autoimmune reaction against galactose-deficient IgA1 that results in the generation of autoantibodies and large IgG-IgA immune complexes. Immune complexes accumulate in the glomerular mesangium causing chronic inflammation and renal scarring. A significant proportion of IgAN patients develop end-stage kidney disease and require dialysis or transplantation. Currently, there are no approved specific therapies that can ameliorate the systemic autoimmune reaction in IgAN and no biomarkers that can predict renal inflammation and scarring. In this study, we used shotgun LC-MS/MS proteomics to compare small volumes of urine from healthy subjects and IgAN patients. We identified multiple urine proteins with unknown renal or IgAN function. Our attention was captured by the increase of phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein-4 (PEBP4) in IgAN urine. The function of PEBP4 in IgAN or renal disease is unknown. Increased levels of urine and serum PEBP4 were subsequently validated in different cohorts of IgAN patients and PEBP4 was linked to declining kidney function in IgAN. Strong PEBP4 staining was sporadically seen in IgAN kidney biopsies, colocalising with IgA in glomeruli and in the lumen of kidney tubules. In a small number of IgAN biopsies, PEBP4 colocalised with IgA and CD19 while the increased excretion of PEBP4 in IgAN urine was accompanied by increased excretion of classic B-cell factors BAFF, BCMA and TACI as well as IgA and IgG. PEBP4 is a new IgAN-related protein with unknown function and a likely renal disease marker in urine and serum.

Abstract
Various immune mechanisms are deployed in the mucosa to confront the immense diversity of resident bacteria. A substantial fraction of the commensal microbiota is coated with immunoglobulin A (IgA) antibodies, and recent findings have established the identities of these bacteria under homeostatic and disease conditions. Here we review the current understanding of IgA biology, and present a framework wherein two distinct types of humoral immunity coexist in the gastrointestinal mucosa. Homeostatic IgA responses employ a polyreactive repertoire to bind a broad but taxonomically distinct subset of microbiota. In contrast, mucosal pathogens and vaccines elicit high-affinity, T cell-dependent antibody responses. This model raises fundamental questions including how polyreactive IgA specificities are generated, how these antibodies exert effector functions, and how they exist together with other immune responses during homeostasis and disease.

Abstract
Lymph nodes (LNs) facilitate the cellular interactions that orchestrate immune responses. Human immune system (HIS) mice are powerful tools for interrogation of human immunity but lack secondary lymphoid tissue (SLT) as a result of a deficiency in Il2rg-dependent lymphoid tissue inducer cells. To restore LN development, we induced expression of thymic-stromal-cell-derived lymphopoietin (TSLP) in a Balb/c Rag2-/-Il2rg-/-SirpaNOD (BRGS) HIS mouse model. The resulting BRGST HIS mice developed a full array of LNs with compartmentalized human B and T cells. Compared with BRGS HIS mice, BRGST HIS mice have a larger thymus, more mature B cells, and abundant IL-21-producing follicular helper T (TFH) cells, and show enhanced antigen-specific responses. Using BRGST HIS mice, we demonstrated that LN TFH cells are targets of acute HIV infection and represent a reservoir for latent HIV. In summary, BRGST HIS mice reflect the effects of SLT development on human immune responses and provide a model for visualization and interrogation of regulators of immunity.

Abstract
The human VH4-34 gene segment encodes intrinsically self-reactive antibodies that recognize I/i carbohydrates. Schickel et al. show that these self-reactive clones may represent an innate-like B cell population specialized in the containment of commensal bacteria when gut barriers are breached. The germline immunoglobulin (Ig) variable heavy chain 4–34 (VH4-34) gene segment encodes in humans intrinsically self-reactive antibodies that recognize I/i carbohydrates expressed by erythrocytes with a specific motif in their framework region 1 (FWR1). VH4-34–expressing clones are common in the naive B cell repertoire but are rarely found in IgG memory B cells from healthy individuals. In contrast, CD27+IgG+ B cells from patients genetically deficient for IRAK4 or MYD88, which mediate the function of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) except TLR3, contained VH4-34–expressing clones and showed decreased somatic hypermutation frequencies. In addition, VH4-34–encoded IgGs from IRAK4- and MYD88-deficient patients often displayed an unmutated FWR1 motif, revealing that these antibodies still recognize I/i antigens, whereas their healthy donor counterparts harbored FWR1 mutations abolishing self-reactivity. However, this paradoxical self-reactivity correlated with these VH4-34–encoded IgG clones binding commensal bacteria antigens. Hence, B cells expressing germline-encoded self-reactive VH4-34 antibodies may represent an innate-like B cell population specialized in the containment of commensal bacteria when gut barriers are breached.
