Overview
Plasma cells are specialized white blood cells that develop from B lymphocytes and produce antibodies as part of the adaptive immune response. Research published in this journal examines plasma cells across multiple clinical contexts, including their role in disease pathology and immune function. Studies have investigated extraosseous plasmacytoma arising in thyroid tissue affected by Hashimoto's thyroiditis, as well as plasma cell disorders such as multiple myeloma complications including plasma cell pleocytosis following bone marrow transplantation, and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance with chromosomal abnormalities. The journal has published work on neutralizing antibodies present in convalescent plasma from donors, relevant to infectious disease management. Additional research has explored plasma cell infiltrates in inflammatory conditions, including their presence in canine mammary carcinomas, idiopathic granulomatous mastitis, and their relationship to immune responses against xenobiotics across the lifespan. Work on Waldenström's macroglobulinemia has examined related cell populations in xenotransplantation models. These investigations contribute to understanding plasma cell biology in both normal immune function and pathological states, informing approaches to diagnosis and potential therapeutic interventions for plasma cell-related disorders and conditions involving antibody-mediated immunity.
