Detailed explanation-1: -Humoral immunity is also called antibody-mediated immunity. With assistance from helper T cells, B cells will differentiate into plasma B cells that can produce antibodies against a specific antigen. The humoral immune system deals with antigens from pathogens that are freely circulating, or outside the infected cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -IgG antibodies help protect your body from viral and bacterial infections. Found in your blood and lymph system, IgM antibodies act as the first line of defense against infections. They also play a large role in immune regulation.
Detailed explanation-3: -Humoral immunity Lymphocytes known as naive B cells circulate throughout the body via the lymphatic system. These cells produce antigen-specific molecules that are necessary for detecting infectious pathogens in the human body.
