The normal number of WBCs in the blood is 4,500-10,000 white blood cells per microliter (mcL).
There are 3 functional classes of lymphocytes:
1. T cells (cell-mediated immunity) attack foreign cells directly.
2. B cells (humoral immunity) differentiate into plasma cells which synthesize antibodies.
3. Natural killer (NK) cells detect and destroy abnormal tissue cells such as cancers.
