Abstract

Long-lived plasma cells (LLPCs) play a central role in protective immunity after vaccination and infection. In this issue of Immunity, Robinson, Ding, et al. utilize a timestamping approach to fate map and characterize the LLPC compartment and demonstrate that PC longevity in the bone marrow is independent of competition for niches with newly generated incoming PCs.
