Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: SARS-CoV-2 specific antibody-secreting plasma cells (PC) mediating specific humoral immunity have been identified in the human bone marrow (BM) after COVID-19 or vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. However, it remained unclear whether or not they acquire phenotypes of human memory plasma cells. METHODS: SARS-CoV-2-specific human bone marrow plasma cells (BMPC) were characterised by tetramer-based,...
