Part of the book series: Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology ((CT MICROBIOLOGY,volume 78))

Abstract

In the past decade it has been established that antigen-reactive cells are lymphocytes and can be divided into two distinct functional classes. Thymus-processed (T-) lymphocytes are the effectors of cell-mediated immunity (e.g., delayed-type hypersensitivity and graft rejection), and also exert important regulatory (helper or suppressor) influences on thymus-independent (bone marrow-derived) B-lymphocytes, which are the direct precursors of antibody-forming cells (AFC).
