The Dengue pathophysiology has had several aspects determined over the years. However, some points remain elusive, such as the metabolic factors that regulate the massive B cell differentiation into antibody-secreting cells observed in Dengue patients. In this chapter, we describe an in vitro method capable of mimicking this Dengue-induced cell expansion. More specifically, this approach allows dengue virus-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy individuals to enhance the frequency of phenotypical and functional antibody-secreting cells (ASCs) after 7 days of culture. A manuscript recently published by Bonezi and colleagues displays results generated through this methodology.
多年来,登革热的病理生理学的多个方面已被确定。然而,一些问题仍然难以捉摸,比如在登革热患者中观察到的调节大量B细胞分化为抗体分泌细胞的代谢因素。在本章中,我们描述了一种能够模拟这种登革热诱导的细胞扩增的体外方法。更具体地说,这种方法使来自健康个体的登革热病毒刺激的外周血单核细胞(PBMC)在培养7天后增加表型和功能性抗体分泌细胞(ASC)的频率。Bonezi及其同事最近发表的一篇论文展示了通过这种方法产生的结果。
