Lymphocytes comprise 15% to 40% of all WBCs and are of central importance to the immune system. Two functional types of lymphocytes are the T cell, which is involved in cell-mediated immunity, and the B cell, which produces antibodies involved in humoral immunity. Lymphocytosis frequently is associated with acute viral infections such as Epstein-Barr virus infection (mononucleosis) and cytomegalovirus in fection and rarely with unusual bacterial infections (i.e.. Brucella spp. infections).
