In Vitro and In Vivo Assessment of T, B and Myeloid Cells Suppressive Activity and Humoral Responses from Transplant Recipients
Published on: August 12, 2017
Abstract:
Immune tolerance has an antigen-directed specificity analogous to that of immune responsiveness. Studies have shown the direction of response-immunization or tolerization-is often dependent on the physical form and the dose of antigen, and that the two major lymphocyte classes, B cells and T cells, have different tolerance requirements. The critical relationships of these findings to autoimmunity are explored.

Special Features of Adaptive Immunity
The primary cell types involved in adaptive immunity are T cells and B cells. Each type has a unique role in defending the body against pathogens. T cells are responsible for cell-mediated immunity. They identify and eliminate infected cells directly,...
