Figure 1 Antigen Presentation to Follicular B Cells in the LN The LN is supplied with lymphatic fluid containing antigens and chemokines (shown in red and green, respectively) through the afferent lymph vessel. On arrival, CD169+ macrophages lining the SCS prevent free diffusion of lymphatic fluid to the LN interior. Larger antigens (diamonds) are accumulated by SCS macrophages and can be directly presented to antigen-specific B cells (the B cell receptor is shown in red) in the follicle. In addition, larger antigens can be transported by nonspecific B cells to FDCs in a complement-dependent manner. This transport may allow FDCs to mediate antigen presentation to specific naive B cells. In contrast, smaller (less than 70 kDa) antigens and chemokines (circles) can access antigen-specific B cells in the follicle either by direct diffusion from pores in the SCS or via the follicular conduit system. These follicular conduits extend from the SCS and are comprised of bundles of collagen fibers ensheathed by fibroreticular cells (FRCs). Because the FRC network is not completely continuous, follicular B cells can extend protrusions through tiny gaps to sample the transported components of lymphatic fluid.
