Lymphocytes
There are several kinds of lymphocytes (although they all look alike under the microscope), each with different functions to perform . The most common types of lymphocytes are
- B lymphocytes ("B cells"). These are responsible for making antibodies.
- T lymphocytes ("T cells"). There are several subsets of these:
Although bone marrow is the ultimate source of lymphocytes, the lymphocytes that will become T cells migrate from the bone marrow to the
thymus [
View] where they mature. Both B cells and T cells also take up residence in lymph nodes, the spleen and other tissues where they
- encounter antigens;
- continue to divide by mitosis;
- mature into fully functional cells.
any good?
