Low CSM% may mark an endotype of humoral immune dysfunction defined by either loss of class switching or critical failure of the coordinated production of both memory cells and long-lived plasma cells responsible for adequate immunoglobulin levels in humans. In patients with low CSM%, maintenance or expansion of IgMonly cells and IgM production suggests the former explanation, while concomitant loss of IgMonly cells suggests the latter. These findings provide a simple endotypic stratification method for future studies on the failed coordinated B cell response in humans with PAD.
