Cell mediated Immunity

Cell mediated Immunity

Cell-mediated immunity is an immune response that does not involve antibodies. Rather, cell-mediated immunity is the activation of phagocytes, antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, and the release of various cytokines in response to an antigen. Cell-mediated immunity is primarily driven by mature T cells, macrophages, and the release of cytokines in response to an antigen. T cells involved in cell-mediated immunity rely on antigen-presenting cells that contain membrane-bound MHC class I proteins in order to recognize intracellular target antigens.
