B cells is B lymphocytes. B cells recognize antigens through clonally expressed and highly specific antigen receptors[1]. B cells develop in the foetal liver before birth and in the bone marrow after birth[2]. B cells is a part of adaptive immune responses. B cells are responsible for the production of antibodies which are for extracellular pathogens[3]. B cells also function as antigen presenting cells for the activation of T cells[4].
