These proliferating centroblasts form a germinal center, located in the center of the follicle of the lymph node.

Other activated B-cells go to the center of a primary follicle in the lymph node and they differentiate into B-cells called centroblasts and start to proliferate or divide.

These centroblasts have a rearrangement of their immunoglobulin genes, and some of them undergo a class switch where they change from producing IgM antibodies to producing IgG or IgA antibodies.
A centroblast generally refers to an activated B cell that is enlarged and proliferating in the germinal center of a secondary lymphoid follicle. Centroblasts form following exposure to follicular dendritic cell cytokines, such as IL-6, IL-15, 8D6, and BAFF and stimulation from helper T cell interactions between their CD40 ligand and the B cell CD40 induces centroblasts to express activation-induced cytidine deaminase, leading to somatic hypermutation.
