Memory B cells are reactivated in subcapsular proliferative foci of lymph nodes

Memory B cells need to be reactivated to produce high affinity antibody responses on subsequent antigen encounters. Here the authors show that memory B cells localise to lymph node subcapsular proliferative foci (SPF), which have distinct properties from the germinal centre, for rapid expansion and...
