A type of white blood cell and, specifically, a type of lymphocyte. Many B cells mature into what are called plasma cells that produce antibodies (proteins) necessary to fight off infections while other B cells mature into memory B cells. All of the plasma cells descended from a single B cell produce the same antibody which is directed against the [..]

A type of white blood cell that makes antibodies. B cells are part of the immune system and develop from stem cells in the bone marrow. Also called B lymphocyte.

A type of lymphocyte that develops in the bone marrow and later produces antibodies, which mediate humoral immunity.

A type of white blood cell (called a lymphocyte) that is an essential component of the immune system. Non Hodgkin B cell lymphoma begins in B cells.

A type of lymphocyte derived from bone marrow stem cells that matures into an immunologically competent cell under the influence of the bursa of Fabricius in the chicken, and the bone marrow in nonavian species; following interaction with antigen, it becomes a plasma cell, which synthesizes and secretes antibody molecules involved in humoral immuni [..]

See B lymphocyte.

One of the major types of cells in the immune system. B cells can differentiate to form memory cells or antibody-forming cells.

One of the main types of cells involved in the humoral immune response. A type of white blood cell (called a b-lymphocytes

White blood cells that come from bone marrow, and produce antibodies to fight off disease.

A type of lymphocyte (a specific type of white blood cell). B-cells respond to the presence of antigens by dividing and maturing into plasma cells.

B cells, also known as B-lymphocytes, are lymphocytes produced in the bone marrow which circulate in the bloods and form part of the acquired immune system. Their main role is the production of antibo [..]

A type of white blood cell that produces antibodies.

A type of immune cell that makes proteins called antibodies, which bind to microorganisms and other foreign substances, and help fight infections. A B cell is a type of white blood cell. Also called B lymphocyte.

a type of lymphocyte

A white blood cell which produces antibody.

a type of lymphocytes (white blood cell) that, after becoming a plasma cell, makes antibodies

A specialized cell of the immune system cell with membrane receptors that recognize and bind to an antigen. Upon binding to an antigen and stimulation by a T cell, a B cell matures into a plasma cell [..]

a type of lymphocyte produced in the bone marrow. Once activated by the presence of a disease agent, B cells either transform into plasma cells which produce antibodies directed against that agent, or become memory cells which provide long-lasting immunity.

A type of immune cell that produces antibodies, which recognize and attack antigens on the surface of foreign cells.

A B-lymphocyte.

a white blood cell that matures in bones and makes antibodies

(immunology) A lymphocyte, developed in the bursa of birds and the bone marrow of other animals, that produces antibodies and is responsible for the immune system. * '''2011''', Terence Allen and G [..]
