What are B Cell surface markers and their related components?
Understand the Problem
The text discusses B cell surface markers, specifically focusing on antigens, surface receptors, and adhesion molecules. It provides definitions and historical context regarding B cell markers, including their identification through serological analysis.
Answer
B cell markers: CD19, CD20, CD40, CD38, CD138.
B cell surface markers include CD19, CD20, CD40 for mature B cells; CD19, CD30 for activated B cells; and CD38, CD138 for plasma cells. They involve antigens, surface receptors, and adhesion molecules.
Answer for screen readers
B cell surface markers include CD19, CD20, CD40 for mature B cells; CD19, CD30 for activated B cells; and CD38, CD138 for plasma cells. They involve antigens, surface receptors, and adhesion molecules.
More Information
B cell markers are used to identify stages of development and activation. CD markers and immunoglobulins are integral for their function.
Tips
A common mistake is confusing the markers between different stages, such as mature, activated, or memory B cells. Review the markers specific to each stage.
