B lymphocytes Jan 8, 2004 Happy New Year, Doctor Holodniy. 1) Does a low B cell count mean that the immune system is unable to make a detectable level of antibodies in response to HIV or other infection? (mine 115 range 110-550) 2) Is the B cell count increased during acute HIV infection due to stimulation of B cells in response to the infection? 3) Or does HIV's specific dynamic of infection preclude this (B cell surface to T cell nucleus)? I think your "terse" replies are often the most clear and unequivocal, which is often what is needed with people asking questions. |
