Organized B cell sites in cartilaginous fishes reveal the evolutionary foundation of germinal centers

Summary: The absence of germinal centers (GCs) in cartilaginous fishes lies at odds with data showing that nurse sharks can produce robust antigen-specific responses and affinity mature their B cell repertoires. To investigate this apparent incongruity, we performed RNA sequencing on single nuclei,...
