项目摘要

Project summary Plasma cells that secrete antibodies against self-antigens pose a considerable threat to human health. Moreover, because many plasma cells are exceptionally long-lived, strategies are needed to deplete long-lived plasma cells (LLPCs) that secrete pathogenic antibodies. This project centers on the hypothesis that LLPCs in bone marrow generate requisite survival signals by sensing extracellular ATP with specific members of the purinergic receptor (P2rX) family. Hence, we propose that compounds that selectively poison relevant purinergic receptors will deplete LLPCs. To test our hypothesis, we will: 1) Establish the impact of P2rX inhibitors on LLPC generation and maintenance, and 2) Determine the role of the purinergic receptor P2rX4 in early plasma cell induction and LLPC maintenance. These studies will provide unique and needed insights into the specialized survival mechanisms employed by LLPCs. This work supports our long-term objective of developing strategies to effectively and specifically disable or deplete problematic plasma cells.

项目摘要分泌反对自我抗原抗体的血浆细胞对人类健康。而且，由于许多浆细胞非常长，因此需要耗尽分泌致病性的长寿命浆细胞（LLPC）需要策略抗体。该项目以骨髓中的LLPC产生的假设为中心必要的生存信号，通过感应细胞外ATP与特定成员嘌呤能受体（P2RX）家族。因此，我们提出的是有选择地的化合物毒药相关的嘌呤能受体会耗尽LLPC。为了检验我们的假设，我们将： 1）建立P2RX抑制剂对LLPC生成和维护的影响，2）确定嘌呤能受体P2RX4在早期浆细胞诱导中的作用 LLPC维护。这些研究将为您提供独特而需要的见解 LLPC采用的专门生存机制。这项工作支持我们的长期制定策略以有效，专门禁用或耗尽的策略有问题的浆细胞。
