Long-lived plasma cells: a mechanism for maintaining persistent antibody production
Abstract
Current models suggest that continuous antigenic stimulation of memory B cells is required to maintain long-term antibody production. In view of recent developments concerning plasma cell longevity, a new model is described that incorporates the important role of long-lived plasma cells in sustaining persistent antibody responses.
