Best Answer

The answer is Lymphocytes. However, they do not RELEASE antibodies. When there is an increase in lymphocytes this indicates a viral infection. Internally, this viral infection is represented as a foreign antigen that could potentially weaken the immune system. Once these foreign antigens are detected this triggers antibodies to form to eliminate the same antigens that created them (the viral infection). These antibodies are what work to fight away the viral infection to return the body to its original state.

Antibodies are special proteins that recognize foreign materials and help the body destroy or neutralize them. The type of white blood cell that secretes antibodies to kill microorganisms is called lymphocytes. The other kind of white blood cell is called the phagocyte, which kills pathogens by engulfing them (basically, "eating" the microbe).

What type of white blood cells make antibodies?

There are two types of white blood cell. The kind which secrete antibodies to kill microbes are called lymphocytes. The other type, which engulf microorganisms, are called phagocytes.*Specifically, the type of lymphocyte (white blood cell) that produces antibodies would be plasma cells. After a B cell (a type of lymphocyte) undergoes clonal selection, the result is the formation of a clone of B cells that consists of plasma cells and memory B cells. Plasma cells secrete antibodies and memory B cells do not secrete antibodies.
