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 modifies proteins and lipids produced by the cell, then secretes them in vesicles to their final destinations within and outside the cell.
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.
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.
A member of a population of genetically identical cells produced from a single cell is a?
clone. Clone is the answer!
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).
What kind of cell secretes histamine?
mast cells
What packages and secretes the products of the cell?
Golgi body
WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE STOMACH CELL THAT SECRETES HYDROCHLORIC ACID?
The stomach cell that secretes hydrochloric acid is called a parietal cell. These cells are responsible for producing the hydrochloric acid that helps in the digestion of food in the stomach.
What does the Clonal Selection Theory state?
The Clonal Selection Theory explain how the immune system can be both diverse and very specific at the same time.The theory states:All antibodies are precommitted to making a single antibody with a single specificityA single cell produces only one antibody which interacts with only one antigen with the highest specificityWhen the right antigen interacts with that cell, it leads to clonal expansion and proliferation of that cell, so that many daughter-cells are made with the exact same specificityThe ability to recognise an antigen is dependent on a receptor, and the receptor is a product of the same cell that secretes the antibody. This ensures that made antibodies will fit with the antigen they are supposed to bind.A clone is defined as a group of cells in which all daughter cells are equal in their specificity
