What are two kinds of lymphocytes?
Lymphocyte is a type of white blood cell found in the vertebral immune system. Lymphocytes can be divided into Large lymphocytes and small lymphocytes when viewed under the microscope. The Large lymphocytes include natural killer cells (NK cells) There are mainly two types of Lymphocytes. T Lymphocytes and B Lymphocytes. (these are small lymphocytes according to the microscopic view) B Lymphocytes have 3 subsets. You can see the attached link for further information.
Who discovered t lymphocytes?
who discoverd lymphocytes
What are the main two types of lymphocytes?
T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes
What is involved in the programming of T lymphocytes?
The Thymus is involved in the maturation of T Lymphocytes.
How are cytotoxic T lymphocytes produced?
CD8+ T cells divide and differentiate into cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
Where do t-lymphocytes mature?
T lymphocytes undergo their final maturation in the thymus, hence why they are called 'T cells'.
T-cell lymphocytes that inhibit the activity of B cell lymphocytes?
suppressor T-cells
What type of cell accounts for most of the lymphocytes in circulation?
T lymphocytes
Where do T cells become immunocompetent?
Lymphocytes... more specifically T lymphocytes.
Why do conditions that cause destruction of B lymphocytes and or T lymphocytes cause malfunctioning of both specific and nonspecific immune responses?
The destruction of B lymphocytes and or T lymphocytes is a cell injury. Both of these lymphocytes are needed to activate the specific and nonspecific immune responses.
What kinds of lymphocytes are there?
Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell. There are two kinds of lymphocytes. These are the T-cells and B-cells.
What is a t-cell?
T cells or T lymphocytes belong to a group of White blood cells known as Lymphocytes, and play a central role in cell-meaditated immunity . They can be distinguished from other lymphocyte types, suach as B cells and natural killer cells (NK cells) by the presence of a special receptor on their cell surface called T cell receptors (TCR). The abbreviation T, in T cell, stands for thymus, since this is the principal organ responsible for the T cell's maturation. Several different subsets of T cells have been discovered, each with a distinct function.
