Persistent but atypical germinal center reaction among 3rd SARS-CoV-2 vaccination after rituximab exposure

BackgroundDurable vaccine-mediated immunity relies on the generation of long-lived plasma cells and memory B cells (MBCs), differentiating upon germinal center (GC) reactions. SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination induces a strong GC response in healthy volunteers (HC), but limited data is available about res...
