B cell subsets at iTTP presentation and ADAMTS13 relapse. Percentages of transitional cells (IgD+CD38++) (A), naïve cells (IgD+CD38+) (B), IgD+ memory B cells (IgD+CD38–) (C), postgerminal center memory B cells (IgD–CD38+) (D), double–negative memory B cells (IgD–CD38–) (E), and plasmablasts (IgD–CD38++) (F) in patients with acute iTTP episodes (n = 22), ADAMTS13 relapse (n = 24), and HC (n = 27). A13 relapse, ADAMTS13 relapse; double-negative memory cells, double-negative memory cells; Post GC memory, postgerminal center memory cells.
