I'm at the start of TEW2 (1 hour in). Tried to find what APC means by googling all sorts of things, but can't seem to find any definition or...
B-cells become Plasma Cells. When a B-cell receptor connects to its specific antigen, a Helper T-cell releases chemicals that tell that B-cell to divide many times. This makes an army of B-cells with the perfectly shaped B-cell receptor to connect to the invader in your body.Many of these B-cells quickly turn into Plasma cells.how/hide words to know. 1  Antibody: a molecule made by B-cells to trap foreign particles and microbes... 2  Molecule: a chemical structure that has two or more atoms held together by a chemical bond. 3  Plasma cell: an immune cell that comes from B-cells and makes and releases antibodies. 4  Receptor: a molecule on the surface of a cell that receives ...
Each antibody binds to a specific antigen; an interaction similar to a lock and key. An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shape protein produced by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to identify and neutralize pathogens such as bacteria and viruses.The antibody recognizes a unique molecule of the harmful agent, called an antigen, via the variable region.ach antibody binds to a specific antigen; an interaction similar to a lock and key.
