"T lymphocyte"の定義と意味

What is a "t lymphocyte"?

A "T lymphocyte", also known as a "T cells", is a vital component of the human immune system. They are responsible for recognizing and eliminating infected or abnormal cells in the body. T lymphocytes play a crucial role in coordinating immune responses, including the activation of other immune cells and the production of cytokines. They are involved in both adaptive and innate immune responses, helping to defend the body against various pathogens and cancer cells. T lymphocytes are produced in the bone marrow and mature in the thymus gland before circulating throughout the body to carry out their immune functions.
