Natural killer cells cytotoxic reactions

T lymphocytes, thymus-derived lymphocytes or T cells are formed in the thymus. They carry out immune reactions involving cell-cell interactions and are responsible for cell-mediated immunity. One distinguishes specific and non-specific cytotoxic killer T cells, (NK cells, natural killer cells), and helper T cells which cooperate with antigen-presenting cells, APC s, in the initiation of an immune response. Suppressor T cells dampen the action of helper T cells. [Pg.321]
