Mechanism of Humoral Immunity | Microbiology

The mechanism of humoral immunity is accomplished after interaction of antigen with B-cells, antibody production and antigen-antibody binding. 1.  Interaction of antigen with B-cells: The B-cells after production from the stem cells (Fig. 22.8) migrate to lymphoid organs. When antigen interacts and contacts the receptor, the later gets stimulated. The B-cells differentiate into antibody producing cells through three steps: activation, [...]
