Lymphocytes... more specifically T lymphocytes.
The T in T-cells stands for the thymus gland. Lymphocytes produced in the bone marrow are either become B-cells or they are matured in the thymus gland and are "trained" to be either Natural Killer T-cells, CD4 (Helper T-cells), CD8 (Suppressor T-cells).
Dendritic cells activate T cells in the immune response by presenting antigens to the T cells. This interaction triggers the T cells to become activated and initiate an immune response against the specific antigen.
B cells activate T cells in the immune response by presenting antigens to T cells. This interaction triggers the T cells to become activated and multiply, leading to a coordinated immune response against the invading pathogen.
T helper 1 cells activate and assist in the activation of T cells by releasing signaling molecules called cytokines. These cytokines help stimulate T cells to multiply and become more effective in fighting off infections. Additionally, T helper 1 cells can directly interact with T cells to provide necessary signals for their activation and function.
T cells play a key role in autoimmune diseases by mistakenly attacking the body's own cells and tissues. This can happen when T cells become overactive or fail to recognize the body's own cells as "self," leading to inflammation and damage to healthy tissues.
The thymus causes T lymphocytes (T cells) to become immunocompetent by secreting hormones that promote their development and maturation process.
it doesnt
The lymphocytes become immunocompetent when the thymus secretes hormones. Lymphocytes are white blood cells that are found in a vertebrate's immune system.
When B and T cells are fully developed and mature, they are described as being immunocompetent, meaning they are capable of recognizing antigens and mounting an immune response.
The two main immunocompetent cells are B-lymphocytes (B-cells) and T-lymphocytes (T-cells). B-cells are responsible for producing antibodies, while T-cells have various roles including helping B-cells produce antibodies and directly killing infected cells.
each lymphocyte must become able (competent) to recognize its one specific antigen bye binding to it. this ability is called immunocompetence.
CD8+ T lymphocytes, also known as cytotoxic T cells, become cytotoxic when they are activated by presenting antigens on major histocompatibility complex class I molecules. These cells play a key role in the immune response by directly killing infected or abnormal cells.
The T in T-cells stands for the thymus gland. Lymphocytes produced in the bone marrow are either become B-cells or they are matured in the thymus gland and are "trained" to be either Natural Killer T-cells, CD4 (Helper T-cells), CD8 (Suppressor T-cells).
Dendritic cells activate T cells in the immune response by presenting antigens to the T cells. This interaction triggers the T cells to become activated and initiate an immune response against the specific antigen.
Directly from my anatomy and physiology book - Marieb & Hoehn Eighth Edition: "Lymphocytes originate in red bone marrow from hematopoietic stem cells." " B cells become immunocompetent and self-tolerant in the bone marrow."
