IgMs that inactivate oxidation-specific epitopes (IgMOSE), which are secondary products of lipid peroxidization, protect against inflammatory diseases, including diet-induced atherosclerosis. However, the human B cell subtype that produces IgMOSE remains unknown. In this study, we used single-cell mass cytometry and adoptive transfer of B cell subtypes to NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Wjl/SzJ (NSG) mice to identify B27+IgM+CD24hi cells as the major producers of IgMOSE in humans.
