Humoral Immunity - The Definitive Guid…
https://biologydictionary.net/humoral-immunity/
Steps involved in Humoral immune response or Antibody mediated immune response Activation of B cells once an antigen is recognized. Engulfment and digestion of the antigen by the B cells. Display of the fragments of the antigen on the surface of B cells which attract the T helper cell. Activation of the T helper cell by the B cell. Proliferation of the B cell and differentiation into plasma cells. Production of antibodies by the plasma cells. Binding of the antibodies to the antigen. Neutralization of the antigen by the antibodies. 1) Class II MHC molecules ( present only on antigen presenting cells) 2) T-cell receptors (TCRs) on T cell surface The first step in the humoral immunity process is the activation of B cells once an antigen is recognized. The antigen is then engulfed and digested by the B cells.
