Article Synopsis
- Plasma cells are crucial for immune function, but how they survive and secrete antibodies is not fully understood.
- Researchers found that the protein Sec22b is vital for maintaining plasma cell function; without it, plasma cells are barely present and antibodies are significantly lower.
- Sec22b helps in effective antibody secretion and maintains plasma cell health by regulating their gene activity and the structure of the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria.
