Descriptor English: Memory B Cells
Descriptor Spanish: Células B de Memoria
Descriptor linfocitos B de memoria
Entry term(s) células B de memoria
Scope note: Subconjunto de linfocitos B activados generados en respuesta a una exposición inmunitaria primaria o inmunización que son capaces de dar lugar a células secretoras de anticuerpos con la reexposición (ver MEMORIA INMUNOLÓGICA). Los linfocitos B de memoria presentan muchas propiedades específicas que indican diferenciación a través de un CAMBIO DE ISOTIPOS y/o una HIPERMUTACIÓN SOMÁTICA DE INMUNOGLOBULINAS para una memoria rápida y sólida de respuestas de anticuerpos específicos.

Scope note: A subset of activated B cells generated in response to primary immune challenge or immunization which are capable of giving rise to antibody-secreting cells upon re-challenge (see IMMUNOLOGIC MEMORY). Memory B cells feature many discrete properties indicative of differentiation through ISOTYPE SWITCHING and/or IMMUNOGLOBULIN SOMATIC HYPERMUTATION for rapid and robust recall of specific antibody responses.
