Summary Plasma cells are terminally differentiated B lymphocytes that constitutively secrete antibodies. These antibodies can provide protection against pathogens, and their quantity and quality are the best clinical correlates of vaccine efficacy. As such, plasma cell lifespan is the primary determinant ...
Plasma cell, short-lived antibody-producing cell derived from a type of leukocyte (white blood cell) called a B cell. B cells differentiate into plasma cells that produce antibody molecules closely modeled after the receptors of the precursor B cell. Onc
Plasma cells are specialized terminally differentiated B cells that synthesize and secrete antibodies to maintain humoral immunity. By the production of pathogenic antibodies, plasma cells contribute to the development of many conditions, such as autoimmune disorders, transplant rejection and allergies. Two...

Long-lived plasma cells (PC) are rare cells that reside and rest in dedicated survival niches of the bone marrow (BM), which continuously secrete antibodies against previously encountered pathogens1. These cells have been considered to originate mostly from T cell-dependent B-cell activation in se...
Define plasma cell. plasma cell synonyms, plasma cell pronunciation, plasma cell translation, English dictionary definition of plasma cell. n. Any of various short-lived cells that develop from activated B cells and secrete large numbers of antibodies. T
1 Plasma Cells Antibodies secreted by plasma cells often provide the first line of defense against any invader. Plasma cells are generated either T-independently in extrafolliclar sites or T-dependantly in germinal center reactions from mature B cells. Plasma cells can also be formed from memory...
