What are the action of b cells and t cells in an immune response?

Answer 1

There are three types of T cells:

* Th cells: T helper cells which bind to foreign antigens on an antigen presenting cell (APC) and secrete cytokines, hereby initiating an immune system response. * Tc cells: T cytotoxic cells, which bind to the infected cell and secretes the cytotoxins perforin and granulysin and thus lysing the cell, killing it. * Ts cells: T suppressor cells, which shutdown the immunity system after the infection has been eliminated from the body. B cells, upon detecting the presence of cytokines, divide and differentiate into two types of cells:

* Plasma cells; which secrete antibodies * Memory cells; which persist in the body in case there is a recurrent infection with the same disease, then a faster and more efficient immune response would occur.

Answer 2

T cells and B cells help filter the body out from disease and antibodies

T cells are killer cells that destroy pathogens and B cells create Antibodies. Now you know what are T cells and B cells! :)

Answer 3

B cell will response to extracellular bacteria but t cell response to intracellular bacteria.
