Aberrant Humoral Immune Responses in Neurosyphilis: CXCL13/CXCR5 Play a Pivotal Role for B-Cell Recruitment to the Cerebrospinal Fluid

Abstract

CXCL13/CXCR5 mediated the aggregation of B cells, that directed the aberrant humoral immune responses via the formation of EGCs, which suggests a molecular mechanism of neurological damage in neurosyphilis.
