Data is derived from references 12 and 52 and represent the phenotype of mouse spleen B cells or primate blood B cells before and 5 to 7 days after immunization with TNP-Ficoll (immunization was intraperitoneal for mice and intraveneous for African Green monkeys and cynomolgus macaques). It should be noted that not all TNP-specific B cells express changes in markers following immunization, but that these alterations are due to the presence of cells expressing CD11b and increased size (FSChi).
