Antibody-secreting plasma cells persist for decades in human intestine

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2017
Plasma cells (PCs) produce antibodies that mediate immunity after infection or vaccination. In contrast to PCs in the bone marrow, PCs in the gut have been considered short lived. In this study, we studied PC dynamics in the human small intestine by cell-
