Figure 2 Biologically relevant BAFF and B cell markers in plasma, blood, and bone marrow. (A) Naive and transitional B cells are increased in patients without cGVHD, and these may serve as predictive markers of good post-HSCT health. (B) Low transitional and naive B cell numbers and high BAFF/B cell ratios may serve as markers of cGVHD.
