Cellular immunity uses helper cells and killer cells to identify and destroy abnormal cells.
Cellular Immunity.
In cell mediated immunity the lymphocytes go and attack the offending microorganism. This develops after about 2 to 3 weeks after the first attack by microorganisms.
T cells are part of the adaptive immunity. There are two major types of T cells: CD4+ T helper cells and CD8+ T cytotoxic cells. T helper cells primarily function in humoral immunity whereas T cytotoxic cells are important in cell mediated immunity. T helper cells produce cytokines to activate other immune system components like macrophages, B cells, etc. whereas T cytotoxic cells primarily kill infected cells.
It is a type of leukocyte, or white blood cell, but it has no ability to ingest or destroy invading bacteria. It activates other white blood cells or antibodies to react with the invading organism.
T-cells will do this
T cells are made in the red bone marrow but specialize into t cells outside the marrow in the thymus, hence the T in Tcells. two types of t cells are cytotoxic effector cells and helper t cells. think of cytotoxic t cells as the drunk guy in the bar that wants to fight everyone (and is a good fighter by the way) and the helper t cells are the friends who show him who to fight and provides him with the weapons to fight. CTC can attach to and destroy cells carrying antigens Helper T cells 1. present antigen to CE cells and plasma B cells to activate them into action and 2. produe powerful immune protein called cytokins which can stimulate the lymphocyte cell disvision.
T cells are considered the most critical cells in immunity, playing a central role in orchestrating the immune response by recognizing infected cells and coordinating the overall immune reaction to pathogens.
The most critical cell in immunity is the T lymphocyte (T cell). T cells play a key role in coordinating immune responses by recognizing and attacking infected cells and regulating other immune cells.
T cells destroy pathogens.

ANTIBODY IMMUNITY IS BETTER TERMED AS HUMORAL IMMUNITY Humoral immunity is acquired by B-lymphocytes and T-helper lymphocytes as An antigen is engulfed by antigen processing cell (APC) e.g. , B-cells then a part of an antigen (epitope) is presented to T-helper cells in association with MHC-II (MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX) then T-helper cell activates B-cell to produce effector cell (plasma cell) and memory cell then plasma cell secrete antibodies which neglify harmful or toxic effects of the above antigen. CELL MEDIATED IMMUNITY Every cell of the body can show this response while in the above case only APC can show humoral response A whole foreign body/ antibody is engulfed by the cell then epitope is represented to cytotoxic T-lymphocytes(CTLs) then CTLs secrete certain chemicals which kill the cell along with foreign body.
use missles and shoot in the middle of the cannons then destroy the helper repairing ships.
The cells which are involved in the production of antibodies are known as B cells. These are effector cells which will secrete anybodies and activate the antigens.
(t-cells) are involved in cell mediated immunity that can have memory of previous antigens(non self) that have invaded our body. cytotoxic tcells release preforin that destroy tumor cells or antigens helper tcells release cytokines/interlukins that help in more tcell differentiation
B cells and Helper T cells
If im correct, helper t-cells activate: b-cells that mark viruses and make them stick together, killer t-cells --which attack macrophages and infected cells, and memory b-cells, which remember how to stop viruses, this i believe is called active immunity
