What are the progeny cells of a B-cell clone called?
The progeny cells of a B-cell clone are called plasma cells. Plasma cells are responsible for secreting large quantities of antibodies specific to a particular antigen.
Which cell develops into a plasma cell?
Stem cells develop into plasma cells and B cells also turn into plasma cells. Plasma cells have been exposed to an antigen and then produces and secretes antibodies.
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.
Pakages and secretes the products of the cell?
The Golgi apparatus packages and secretes the products of the cell. It packages the molecules into vesicles for distribution around or out of the cell.
When a cell secretes a hormone that is a form of?
In my biology class this specific questions was asked. A cell secretes a hormone through facilitated diffusion.
Why limiting dilution is used in hybridoma technology?
limiting dilution is a method used to have a single cell / well in a tissue culture plate. and why we need a single cell / well ...to ensure that we have single clone of antibody producing B cell as during any immuneresponse a mixed of different B clone will produce to make antibodies against foreign antigen even during the 2ndary immune response the antibodies produced will have different structure in the variable region because of somatic hypermutation process during affinity maturation at the germinal center. Thus, we do a limiting dilution to study each B cell clone antibody produced individually and test its specificity by ELISA, which can be easy to detect the best affinity binder clone and chose it for further steps.
A member of a population of genetically identical cells produced from a single cell is a?
clone. Clone is the answer!
What are the key differences between polyclonal antibodies and monoclonal antibodies in terms of their specificity and production methods?
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by multiple B cells and are a mix of antibodies that target different epitopes on an antigen, resulting in broader specificity. Monoclonal antibodies are produced by a single B cell clone and target a single epitope on an antigen, leading to higher specificity. Polyclonal antibodies are typically produced by immunizing animals, while monoclonal antibodies are generated through hybridoma technology or recombinant DNA technology.
What packages and secretes the products of the cell?
Golgi body
What kind of cell secretes histamine?
mast cells
How do you make monoclonal antibodies and what is the process involved?
Monoclonal antibodies are made by fusing a specific type of immune cell called a B cell with a cancer cell to create a hybrid cell called a hybridoma. The hybridoma cell then produces identical antibodies that can target a specific antigen. These antibodies are then harvested and purified for use in various medical treatments and research.
Does stem cells clone humans?
no. stem cells can clone A cell that's put around it, like a heart cell or pancreas cell but it can't clone an entire person (though it would aid the process).
