TL;DR: Results indicate that MZ B cells rapidly and effectively capture soluble Ag and activate CD4+ T cells to become effector T cells.
Abstract: The early involvement of marginal zone (MZ) B lymphocytes in T-independent immune responses is well established. In this study we compared the abilities of MZ and follicular (FO) B cells to collaborate with T cells. After immunization with soluble hen egg lysozyme, both MZ and FO B cells captured Ag and migrated to T cell areas in the response to hen egg lysozyme. MZ B cells were far superior to FO B cells in inducing CD4+ T cell expansion both in vitro and in vivo. MZ, but not FO, B cells, after interaction with T cells, differentiated into plasma cells, and in addition they stimulated Ag-specific CD4+ T cells to produce high levels of Th1-like cytokines upon primary stimulation in vitro. These results indicate that MZ B cells rapidly and effectively capture soluble Ag and activate CD4+ T cells to become effector T cells. The enhanced capacity of MZ B cells to prime T cells in this study appeared to be intrinsic to MZ B cells, as both MZ and FO B cell populations express an identical Ag receptor.

TL;DR: The study indicates that ErbB4 represents a first receptor tyrosine kinase that undergoes intramembrane proteolysis and may mediate a novel signaling function independent of its canonical role as a receptor tyrose kinase.

TL;DR: The authors examined whether participant attitudes would change toward positions advocated by an ingroup member even if the latter was known to be an embodied agent, i.e., a human-like representation of a computer algorithm.
Abstract: Two studies examined whether participant attitudes would change toward positions advocated by an ingroup member even if the latter was known to be an embodied agent; that is, a human-like representation of a computer algorithm. While immersed in a virtual environment, participants listened to a persuasive communication from a digital representation of another student. The latter was actually an embodied agent (a computer-controlled digital representation of a human). Study 1 examined the extent to which gender of the virtual human, participant gender, and the agent's behavior affected attitude change. Results revealed gender-based ingroup favoritism in the form of greater attitude change for same gender virtual humans. Study 2 examined behavioral realism and agency beliefs; that is, whether participants believed the other to be an agent or an avatar (an online representation of an actual person). Results supported Blascovich and colleague's model of social influence within immersive virtual environments. ...

TL;DR: In this paper, the mediating potential of perceived organizational support on politics perceptions was investigated, and it was found that perceived support was related to job satisfaction, performance, affective commitment and job-induced tension providing support for mediation.
