Abstract
Recent results on the biology of plasma cells have shown that these cells can survive as long as memory B cells. Possibly, such long-lived plasma cells are also involved in the production of autoantibodies. Here, we discuss the potential involvement of long-lived plasma cells in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disease and the consequences it has for the development of effective therapeutic strategies.
