- Lymphocyte cells are mainly responsible for immunity in living organisms. Lymphocyte cells are roughly classified into T lymphocyte cells (T cells) and B lymphocyte cells (B cells) according to their functions. T cells are considered to have antigen-presenting ability and cytotoxicity, and B cells are considered to have antibody-producing ability. These two types of lymphocytes are all derived from the same blood stem cells and are released into the peripheral blood after repeated differentiation in the bone marrow or other organs or by the action of growth factors. .
- hematopoietic stem cells differentiate into pre-T cells in the bone marrow, then migrate to the thymus, and further repeat differentiation to become mature T cells. After that, it is activated by the stimulation of the antigen, and becomes an activated T cell having a proliferative ability or cytotoxicity.
- B cells hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow undergo pro-B cells and pre-B cells by stimulating site cytokines such as I-1, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-6. Differentiates into mature B cells and receives additional antigen stimulation And finally become plasma cells capable of producing antibodies. Therefore, final activation is essential for the lymphocyte to exert its function.
