B-cell Receptor Signaling Pathway (BCR Signaling Pathway)

Target: BCR Signaling Pathway
Molecular classification: Signaling pathway, Immune signaling pathway

Overview

The B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway is fundamental to the development, activation, and function of B lymphocytes. The pathway is initiated when the membrane immunoglobulin (mIg) component of the BCR binds a specific antigen. This event triggers a cascade of intracellular signaling events that regulate key processes such as cell survival, proliferation, differentiation into plasma cells or memory B cells, and maintenance of immune tolerance.

Other names: B cell receptor pathwayBCR pathway

Mechanism of action

Inhibition of proximal kinases in the BCR signaling cascade, leading to reduced downstream signaling and tumor cell death.
