B cell humoral immunity. To understand how the peripheral b cell subsets were impacted with respect to humoral response during acute sftsv infection we. Dysregulation of peripheral b cell subsets in fatal patients. Igg igm iga igd and ige. With assistance from helper t cells b cells will differentiate into plasma b cells that can produce antibodies against a specific. There are five classes of antibodies. Key concepts and summary b lymphocytesor b cellsproduce antibodies involved in humoral immunity. In humoral immune response first the b cells mature in the bone marrow and gain b cell receptors bcr s which are displayed in large number on the cell surface.
B cell receptors bcrs are membrane bound monomeric forms of igd and igm that bind specific antigen epitopes with their. Humoral immunity utilizes antibodies also known as immunoglobulins ig produced by b lymphocytes. The humoral immunity is associated with the b lymphocytes and is responsible for destroying the pathogens by producing antibodies against it whereas the cell mediated immunity is associated with the t lymphocytes and is responsible for the destroying the pathogens or microorganism which have invaded the cells without producing antibodies. Humoral immunity is also called antibody mediated immunity. These membrane bound protein complexes have antibodies which are specific for antigen detection. They become plasma cells which make antibodies.
