plasmablasts

Example:The plasmablasts played a crucial role in the immunological response to the infection by increasing the production of antibodies.

Definition:A coordinated, innate and adaptive immune response to a pathogen or antigen.

Example:After the plasmablasts matured into plasma cells, they began secreting large quantities of immunoglobulin in response to the infection.

Definition:A type of antibody that is responsible for the specific binding of antigens, recognizing them and marking them for destruction.

Example:Plasmablasts are key to producing antibodies after vaccination as they differentiate and multiply to secrete these antibodies.

Definition:A large Y-shaped molecule produced by B cells that can specifically recognize and neutralize antigens.
