CXCR4–CXCL12 interaction is important for plasma cell homing and survival in NZB/W mice

Antibody‐secreting cells (ASCs), including short‐lived plasmablasts and long‐lived memory plasma cells (LLPCs), contribute to autoimmune pathology. ASCs, particularly LLPCs, refractory to conventional immunosuppressive drugs pose a major therapeutic challenge. Since stromal cells expressing C‐X‐C mo...
