Both type of lymphocytes are made in the bone marrow and only the B - Lymphocytes mature in the bone marrow, whereas the T Lymphocytes travel to the thymus gland where they mature.
Directly from my anatomy and physiology book - Marieb & Hoehn Eighth Edition: "Lymphocytes originate in red bone marrow from hematopoietic stem cells." " B cells become immunocompetent and self-tolerant in the bone marrow."
each lymphocyte must become able (competent) to recognize its one specific antigen bye binding to it. this ability is called immunocompetence.
B lymphocytes are associated with
T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes
B lymphocytes, or B cells would produce antibodies.
At lymph nodes
Lymphocytes LB
Lymphocytes
IMPORTANCE OF B LYMPHOCYTES: 1.b lymphocytes play important role in humeral immune response. 2.they secretes antibodies. 3.they differentiate into memory and plasma cells.
The term that refers to the ability to develop an immune response is "immunocompetence." This capability allows the immune system to recognize and respond effectively to pathogens and foreign substances. Immunocompetence is crucial for maintaining health and protecting the body against infections and diseases. It can be influenced by factors such as age, genetics, and overall health.
The destruction of B lymphocytes and or T lymphocytes is a cell injury. Both of these lymphocytes are needed to activate the specific and nonspecific immune responses.
