Cytotoxic T cells have the ability to?
It releases perforin and granzymes which kills the infected cells.
How would you explain the function of phagocytic cells to a patient with a bacterial infectinos?
Phagocytic cells ingest and destroy the bacteria. Phagocytic cells ingest and destroy the bacteria.
What cells are phagocytic?
white blood cells affected are phagocytic cells. They are part of the non-specific immune system and move via the blood to all parts of the body where they ingest and destroy microbes. Phagocytic cells are the first line of defense against microorganisms
What are the cells called that police the body in blood and lymph to kill cancer cells and virus infected body cells?
White blood cells that directly destroy virus-infected and cancerous cells are called?
What cell recognizes and destroy non self cells?
Those would be white blood cells.

Which of the following substances does a cytotoxic T cell secrete to destroy a target cell?
Perforin!
Cytotoxic t cells destroy their target cells by releasing substances that alter?
cell membrane

White blood cells that directly destroy virus-infected and cancerous cells are called?
Cytotoxic T cells can destroy cancer cells by means of a secretion called?
Cytotoxic T cells (also known as CD8+ T cells) can destroy cancer cells through a process called cell-mediated cytotoxicity. This process involves the secretion of perforin and granzymes by the cytotoxic T cells. Perforin creates pores in the target cell's membrane, allowing granzymes to enter the target cell. Granzymes are proteases that induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in the target cell, effectively killing it. This mechanism is a crucial part of the immune system's ability to recognize and eliminate cancerous or infected cells.
In cell meditated immunity what binds to and tears open the cell membranes of invading cells or infected body cells?
T Cytotoxic Cells destroy infected body cells by making holes in the cell membranes using proteins called perforins. This allows water to rush into the cells, causing it to burst. They are actually called Killer T cells.
How do T cells destroy infected or diseased cells?
Cytotoxic T-cells kill infected cells in one of two ways: 1. By interaction with Fas ligand on T-cell with Fas molecule on target cell (induces apoptosis). 2. Release of lytic granules containing granzymes (also induces apoptosis) - For this, the T-cell needs to form pores in the target cell using perforin and granulysin.
What substances do T cells produce to destroy cells infected by a virus?
T cells recognize these proteins and produce certain substances (cytokines) that destroy the infected cells.
What cell recognizes and destroy non self cells?
Those would be white blood cells.
Which blood cells in the lymph nodes destroy cellular trash?
Cytotoxic T cells and NK cells (natural killers)
