Descriptor linfopoyesis
Scope note: Formación de los LINFOCITOS y de las CÉLULAS PLASMÁTICAS a partir de las células madre linfoides que se desarrollan a partir de las CÉLULAS HEMATOPOYÉTICAS pluripotentes en la MÉDULA ÓSEA. Estas células madre linfoides se diferencian en LINFOCITOS T, LINFOCITOS B, CÉLULAS PLASMÁTICAS o células NK (CÉLULAS ASESINAS NATURALES) dependiendo del órgano o tejido (TEJIDO LINFOIDE) a los que migran.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D038041
Scope note: Formation of LYMPHOCYTES and PLASMA CELLS from the lymphoid stem cells which develop from the pluripotent HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELLS in the BONE MARROW. These lymphoid stem cells differentiate into T-LYMPHOCYTES; B-LYMPHOCYTES; PLASMA CELLS; or NK-cells (KILLER CELLS, NATURAL) depending on the organ or tissues (LYMPHOID TISSUE) to which they migrate.
