Paired staining for IgD and CCR10 was performed on sections of the indicated tissue categories. Between 10 and 164 (median, 27) plasmablasts or plasma cells with cytoplasmic IgD were evaluated for distinct peripheral expression of CCR10 (percentage of positivity) in 3 individual samples of each category (median and observed range provided).
