antibodies are produced from which cells?
1591
B lymphocytes produce antibodies - proteins (gamma globulins) that recognize foreign substances (antigen) and attach themselves to them. B lymphocytes (or B cells) are each programmed to make one specific antibody.
827962
The immune system responds to antigens by producing cells that directly attack the pathogen, or by producing special proteins called antibodies. Antibodies attach to an antigen and attract cells that will engulf and destroy the pathogen. The main cells of the immune system are lymphocytes known as B cells and T cells.

Monoclonal antibodies are artificially produced against a specific antigen in order to bind to their target antigens. ... Fusion of cell culture myeloma cells with mammalian spleen cells antibodies result in hybrid cells/hybridomas which produces large amounts of monoclonal antibody.

Antibodies are proteins produced by a person's immune system that help the body to recognise and get rid of infection. Autoantibodies are antibodies that recognise parts of our own body.

B cells differentiate into plasma cells that produce antibody molecules closely modeled after the receptors of the precursor B cell. Once released into the blood and lymph, these antibody molecules bind to the target antigen (foreign substance) and initiate its neutralization or destruction.

B cells, also known as B lymphocytes, are a type of white blood cell of the lymphocyte subtype. They function in the humoral immunity component of the adaptive immune system by secreting antibodies.
1053099
An antibody (formally called immunoglobulin) is a large Y-shaped glycoprotein produced by B-cells and used by the immune system to identify and neutralize pathogens. Antibodies are produced by B cells, and are either secreted into circulation or remain expressed on the surface of the B cell.

Antigens are any substance that the immune system can recognize and that can thus stimulate an immune response. B cells (B lymphocytes) are white blood cells that produce antibodies specific to the antigen that stimulated their production.
847667
In vitro Methods In the in vitro method, antibodies are produced using the hybridoma method, where hybridoma cells are generated by fusing myeloma cells and B-lymphocytes. These lymphocytes may be from a mouse or rat. The target antigen is injected to the animal, and thus the animal is immunized against the antigen.
163915
Monoclonal antibodies are produced via multiple/identical copies of a certain cell called a hybridoma. To create Hybridoma cells the fusion of 2 cells are needed in order to combine the characteristics of the 2 cells into 1 cell.
754317
Lymphocytes are one of the main types of immune cells. Lymphocytes are divided mainly into B and T cells. B lymphocytes produce antibodies - proteins (gamma globulins) that recognize foreign substances (antigen) and attach themselves to them.
730813
An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shaped protein produced mainly by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to neutralize pathogens such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses. ... The production of antibodies is the main function of the humoral immune system.
951588
Antibodies are produced by white blood cells and bind to specific antigens on erythrocytes, causing agglutination, or clumping of erythrocytes. Antibodies are the proteins produced by specialized kinds of white blood cells called B lymphocytes.
1269662
Gamma globulins are blood proteins produced by lymphocytes and plasma cells of the immune system when an immune response is needed. Almost all gamma globulins are known as immunoglobulins, also called antibodies, which are globulins that help with immune responses and immunity.
842401
Process by which bulk quantities of targeted antibodies against a specific antigen are produced. Monoclonal antibodies are produced via multiple/identical copies of a certain cell called a hybridoma. ... Hybridoma cells manufacture the specific monoclonal antibody that was originally produced by the B-Lymphocyte cell.
1198980
Each B cell clone makes antibody molecules with a unique antigen-binding site. Initially, during B cell development in the bone marrow, the antibody molecules are inserted into the plasma membrane, where they serve as receptors for antigen.
1387172
Lymphocytes are produced in bone marrow. They make natural antibodies to fight infection caused by viruses that enter the body through the nose, mouth or other mucous membrane, or through cuts and grazes.
