Cytotoxic T cells, also known as CD8+ T cells, play a crucial role in determining whether a cell is healthy or not. They can recognize and eliminate infected or cancerous cells by detecting abnormal antigens presented on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules. By assessing these signals, cytotoxic T cells help maintain the integrity of the immune system and prevent the proliferation of unhealthy cells.
