What blood cell are antibodies produced by?

Antibodies are produced by a type of white blood cell called B lymphocytes, also known as B cells. These cells are a key part of the immune system and play a crucial role in helping the body defend against infections by producing antibodies that can neutralize pathogens.


What determines if a lymphocyte becomes a B cell or a T cell?

Where it is produced


What protein in b cells produce that attack foreign cells are?

The protein produced by B cells that attacks foreign cells is called antibodies or immunoglobulins. Antibodies specifically target and neutralize pathogens like bacteria and viruses.

A mature B cell that mass produces antibodies is called a?

A mature B cell that mass produces antibodies is called a plasma cell. Plasma cells are differentiated B cells that are specialized for producing large quantities of antibodies to help fight infections.


How is immunoglobulin made?

Immunoglobulins, more commonly referred to as antibodies.- Immunoglobulins/antibodies are synthesized by plasma cells which is a specialized type of B-cell. Immature B-cells are produced in red bone marrow and then migrating to the spleen where some of them mature to a mature B-cell. A mature B-cell can differentiate into either a memory B-cell or a plasma cell."- In human adults, Immunoglobulins are synthesized by plasma cells (specialized type of B-cell) which in turn originates from red bone marrow in large bones (eg. femur).


What blood cell can become an antibody-secreting cell is?

The cell which can secret antibody are called B-Lymphocytes. Those cells are generally called as B-Cells.


What is a disease- fighting protein created by the immune system in response to the presence of specific antigen?

Antibody - produced by B lymphocytes.


What are antybodies and how do they work?

Antibodies are natural part of our immune system,also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large Y-shape protein produced by plasma cells they fight foreign substances or antigenes, killing bacteria, viruses, or infected cells. Lymphocytes are one type of white blood cell play a role in immune system, and two major classes of lymphocytes are T cells and B cells. the B cell can only make antibodies when it receives the appropriate command signal from a T cell. Once the T cell signals the B cell with a type of cytokine messenger molecule, the B cell is able to produce a unique antibody that targets a particular antigen (protein on the cell surface). Although antibodies can recognize an antigen and lock onto it, they are not capable of destroying it without help. Specific T cells, also called "killer cells" are part of the system that destroys antigens that have been tagged by antibodies. Antibodies can activate a group of proteins called complement that are also part of the immune system.
