THC Differentiation Pathway

Description:

During infection, T and B-lymphocytes recognize microbes by means of antigen-specific cell-surface receptors. The humoral immune response is mediated by B cells and the antibodies they produce. T-lymphocyte response to antigenic challenges is called the cellular immune response. T-lymphocytes can be categorized and functionally divided into CD4+ (T-helper lymphocytes) cells and CD8+ (cytotoxic T-lymphocytes) by the type of antigen receptors and a small number of accessory markers on their cell surface. There are three diffe...
