Nature. 416:2002;603-607 This study uncovered an important mechanism of B-cell activation: that ligation of both BCR and Toll-like receptor is essential for activation of autoreactive B cells. This raises the possibility that ligation of the TLR by either apoptotic cells or lipopolysaccharide could affect BCR signaling strength, thereby influence B-cell development.
