B cells (humoral immunity) differentiate into plasma cells which synthesize antibodies.

B cells
B lymphocytes are the cells that secrete the antibodies in response to infection in body.
B Cells
exogenous pathogens.
B cells, plasma cells, and antibodies are all part of the immune system. B cells are a type of white blood cell that produce antibodies when activated by antigens. Plasma cells are a mature form of B cells that secrete large amounts of antibodies. Antibodies are proteins produced by B cells that help to neutralize pathogens and foreign substances in the body.
Freaking awesome bodies!! 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.
The cells which are involved in the production of antibodies are known as B cells. These are effector cells which will secrete anybodies and activate the antigens.
No, T cells do not produce antibodies. T cells mainly help regulate the immune response by signaling other immune cells to attack pathogens or infected cells. B cells are the immune cells responsible for producing antibodies.
