Term Information

Accession: GO:0002316
Name: follicular B cell differentiation
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: follicular B lymphocyte differentiation, follicular B-cell differentiation, follicular B-lymphocyte differentiation, follicular B cell development
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The process in which a B cell in the spleen acquires the specialized features of a follicular B cell. Follicular B cells are major population of mature recirculating B cells in the spleen and are located in the B-cell follicle region. Source: ISBN:0781735149, GOC:jal
Comment: Note that immunologists typically use the word 'development' to refer to cells of B or T cell lineages undergoing the process that GO describes as 'cell differentiation'.
