The marginal zone (MZ) of the spleen contains an innate-like subset of B cells that mount rapid protective antibody responses to polysaccharides and lipids from bloodborne viruses and bacteria. These antigens activate MZ B cells by engaging somatically recombined B cell receptors (BCRs) and germline-encoded patternrecognition receptors, including Toll-like receptors (TLRs). MZ B cells receive additional co-stimulatory signals from a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL) and B cellstimulating factor of the TNF family (BAFF), two tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related cytokines released mainly by macrophages, dendritic cells and neutrophils in response to microbes. BAFF and APRIL stimulate MZ B cells through a poorly characterized recep...
