Specific Antibody Production by Blood B Cells is Retained in Late Stage Drug-naïve HIV-infected Africans by Lydie Béniguel, Evelyne Bégaud, Fabrice Cognasse, Philippe Gabrié, Christophe D. Mbolidi, Mary A. Marovich, Céline Cazorla, Frédéric Lucht, Christian Genin, Olivier Garraud

“…This suggests that the in vitro antibody production by drug-naïve individuals' PBMCs resulted from the maturation of already envelope and core antigen-primed, differentiated B cells, presumably pre-plasma cells, which are not known to circulate at homeostasy. As in vitro produced Abs retained the capacity of binding antigen and forming complexes, this study provides pre-clinical support for functional humoral responses despite major HIV- and other tropical pathogen-induced B cell perturbations.…”
