Abstract

The pig ileal Peyer's patch (IPP) has been demonstrated to a primary lymphoid organ generating mature B cells. The project is aimed to determine the role of apoptosis in the management of these cells. These results will extend our understanding of B cell antigens in the pig and emphasise the role of CD40 - CD154 interactions in B cell development.
