Like T cells, B cells are a type of blood cell that belong to a group of white blood cells (WBCs) called lymphocytes, which help the body fight infection.   When B cells encounter an antigen (infectio [..]

B cells are a type of white blood cell and an important part of the adaptive immune system.  Immature B cells, in mammals, develop in bone marrow.  The primary functions of B cells are to make antibodies against antigens, and to develop memory B cells following their activation though interacting with an antigen. Memory B cells have a long lifespan [..]
