Methods and products are described for inducing B cell apoptosis, using antibody-induced apoptosis. Specifically, polyclonal antiserum or one or more monoclonal antibodies, either alone or in combination, as well as fragments or variants thereof are employed in the methods and products of the present invention. These antibodies, or fragments or variants thereof, are capable of binding to B cell surface markers under conditions effective to collectively or individually induce apoptosis of the contacted B cell. Consequently, the methods and products of the present invention can be used therapeutically to treat, or as a preventative agent to protect against, a B cell-related condition or disorder.

L'invention concerne des méthodes et des produits permettant d'induire l'apoptose des cellules B, à l'aide de l'apoptose induite par un anticorps. De manière plus spécifique, un antisérum polyclonal ou un ou plusieurs anticorps monoclonaux, utilisés seuls ou en combinaison, ainsi que des fragments ou des variants de ces derniers sont utilisés dans les méthodes et produits selon la présente invention. Lesdits anticorps, ou fragments ou variants de ces derniers, peuvent se lier à des marqueurs superficiels des cellules B dans des conditions efficaces pour induire collectivement ou individuellement l'apoptose des cellules B avec lesquels ils sont en contact. Par conséquent, les méthodes et produits selon la présente invention peuvent être utilisés thérapeutiquement pour traiter, ou en tant qu'agent préventif pour protéger contre, un état pathologique ou un trouble associé aux cellules B.
