4. Studied expression of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) in osteoblasts and the toxic effect of chromium on its expression; found BCMA is involved in osteogenesis of osteoblasts; chromium downregulates expression of BCMA in osteoblasts. PMID: 26011700
5. BCMA has other contributors for ligands binding except DxL motif. The affinity of BCMA for APRIL higher than for BAFF may be caused by the segment outside of the conservative DxL motif. Moreover, the exposition of new binding modes of BCMA2 interacting with APRIL may establish the foundation of designing novel drugs in the future PMID: 28260502

9. Decreased BCMA expression on peripheral B cells according to severe disease activity suggests that BCMA plays an important regulating role in B-cell hyperactivity and immune tolerance homeostasis in systemic lupus erythematosus patients PMID: 26424128
10. results suggest that Akt and JNK pathways are involved in the regulation of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) PMID: 26914861
11. shedding of BCMA by gamma-secretase controls plasma cells in the bone marrow and yields a potential biomarker for B-cell involvement in human autoimmune diseases PMID: 26065893
12. elevated serum levels in patients with Behcet's disease PMID: 25759827
13. Data show significant differences in expression of tumour necrosis factor family (BAFF) receptors BAFF-R, BCMA and TACI in patients with and without anti-Jo-1 or anti-Ro52/anti-Ro60 autoantibodies. PMID: 25301447

15. BAFF and APRIL as well as their cognate receptors (BCMA, TACI) correlate with glioma grade. (Meta-analysis) PMID: 24376672
16. The B cell maturation antigen (BCMA) is a tumor necrosis family receptor member that is predominantly expressed on terminally differentiated B cells and, upon binding to its ligands B cell activator of the TNF family and a proliferation inducing ligand. PMID: 23237506
17. Activation of B cells through BCMA regulates spinal cord injury-induced autoimmunity via a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL) and B-cell-activating factor (BAFF). PMID: 23088438
18. Data indicate that MAGE3, Survivin and B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) mRNA-pulsed dendritic cells (DCs) are capable of stimulating tumor-associated antigens (TAA)-specific T-cell responses in multiple myeloma (MM) patients. PMID: 23728352
19. Data indicate that B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) is a suitable target for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-expressing T cells, and adoptive transfer of anti-BCMA-CAR-expressing T cells is a promising new strategy for treating multiple myeloma. PMID: 23344265
20. B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), an essential membrane protein for maintaining the survival of plasma cells, was identified as a glycoprotein exhibiting complex-type N-glycans at a single N-glycosylation site, asparagine 42. PMID: 23776238
21. the effect of APRIL is mediated via BCMA, which does not activate the classical NF-kappaB pathway, whereas it induces a novel signaling pathway, which involves JNK2 phosphorylation, FOXO3A activation, and GADD45 transcription PMID: 23071284
22. Serum BCMA levels were higher among patients with progressive disease than those with responsive disease. Overall survival was shorter among patients whose serum BCMA levels were above the median. PMID: 22804669
23. TNFRSF17 may be a candidate gene associated with the pathogenesis of colon cancer. PMID: 22108903
24. These data advance BCMA as an inflammation-related TNF superfamily member in keratinocytes, of potential importance in the management of inflammatory skin conditions. PMID: 22166983
25. primary leukemia B-cell precursors aberrantly express receptors of the BAFF-system, BAFF-R, BCMA, and TACI PMID: 21687682
26. This is the first study, presenting together the TNFSF members APRIL, BAFF, TWEAK and their receptors in different areas of normal renal tissue and renal cell carcinoma. PMID: 21483105
27. Signaling through BCMA enhances B cell activation following exposure to TLR9 agonists, and increased expression in SLE may contribute to the production of IgG autoantibodies. PMID: 21250838
28. genetic polymorphisms are associated with gastrointestinal disorders PMID: 20016944
29. Expression of BCMA, TACI, and BAFF-R by multiple myeloma cells support cell growth and survival. PMID: 14512299
30. APRIL.TACI_d2 and APRIL.BCMA complexes together reveal the mechanism by which TACI engages high affinity ligand binding through a single cysteine-rich domain PMID: 15542592

32. Review. APRIL interactions with BCMA likely govern memory B cell populations. PMID: 16919470
33. Review. Direct BAFF/APRIL signalling in T cells and/or T cell modulation in response to a BAFF-modified B cell compartment may play an important role in inflammation and immunomodulation. PMID: 16931039
34. The BCMA inhibited HRS cell accumulation in vitro and might attenuate HL expansion in vivo. PMID: 16960154
35. BCMA TVs were observed only in some CD19+ cell samples. PMID: 17825416
36. rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast like synoviocytes are stimulated by APRIL and express the APRIL receptor BCMA PMID: 17968879
