Function of immune systemTo defend the organism, protect body from invasion anddamage by foreign cells, microbes, viruses and parasites.1.By humoral immune responses against foreignsubstances (antigens)2.By cell-mediatedimmune responses againstmicroorganism, tumor and transplanted cells,and virus-infectedcells

Immunocyte (Lymphocyte, Macrophage, Antigen presenting cell, Plasma cell) ① Lymphocyte the principal cells of the immune system their ability to recognize and respond to foreign cells and substances three main types: T, B and NK lymphocytes a. T-lymphocytes 65%~75%, are primarily responsible for cellmediated immunity

T cells include several functionally distinct subtypes:T cytotoxic cell: produces perforin and other protein thatkill the tumor cell, virus infective cell and foreign cell:Thelper cell:promotes activity ofBLC andTc C;T memory cell:are long-lived, committed,immunocompetent cells, regulate the function of BLC andTC
T cells include several functionally distinct subtypes: T cytotoxic cell: produces perforin and other protein that kill the tumor cell, virus infective cell and foreign cell; T helper cell: promotes activity of BLC and Tc C; T memory cell: are long-lived, committed, immunocompetent cells, regulate the function of BLC and TC
