The researchers discovered that disease-scarred lung tissue abounds in plasma cells—specialized immune cells that typically reside in bone marrow and produce antibodies. "What we found most striking ...

The abnormal accumulation of antibody-producing immune cells in the lungs may contribute to IPF progression, a new study ...

the number of plasma cells in the spleen increased considerably, simultaneously with the formation of antibodies 1. The cellular reaction was localized almost exclusively to the red pulp ...

These results were similar to those of the control antibody. Plasma cells at the end stage of B cell differentiation are organized using Beacon ®, and memory B cells with antibodies expressed on ...

Long-lived plasma cells, which produce autoantibodies in diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), are an as yet unexplored therapeutic target in such antibody-mediated disorders.

To treat glioblastoma, Purdue researchers are developing antibody-based immunotherapies to improve the recruitment and ...

In this event, the plasma, which is usually group O transfused to A, B or AB recipients, may contain sufficient potent antibodies directed against A or B antigens on the recipient's red cells to ...

Hemagglutination would be positive for maternal cells that have been bound with anti-D Also known as the "antibody screen" that is drawn before the administration of RhIG to RhD-negative women.

A vaccine's ability to generate long-lasting, high-affinity antibodies hinges on a delicate balance. Upon exposure to a vaccine or pathogen, B cells scramble to refine their defenses, rapidly ...

"What we found most striking in this study is that all the fibrotic regions of IPF patients' lungs are covered by antibody-producing plasma cells," Qi Yang, an associate pediatrics professor at ...
