| follicular center c. |
any of a series of B lymphocytes occurring normally in the germinal center and pathologically in the neoplastic nodules of follicular center cell lymphoma; they are regarded as intermediate stages in the development of lymphoblasts and plasma cells from activated lymphocytes and are distinguished according to size (large vs. small) and presence or absence of folds or clefts on the nucleus (cleaved or uncleaved). Follicular center cells are thought to be the B memory cells.
