ALL (Exam III) Flashcards

1
Q

Lymphocyte Ontogeny

A

Starts with a hematopoietic stem cell
- specific growth factor determines if it’s a B or T lymph

Antigen dependent matuaration
- B lymphocytic cells develop in BM
- T lymphocytic cells develop in the thymus (committed cells that migrated there from the BM)

Migrate to secondary lymphoid organs (lymph nodes, spleen and other)
- wait for antigen presentation

Antigen dependent maturation
