The type of immunity that functions in defense against fungi, protists, bacteria, and viruses inside host cells and against tissue transplants, with highly specialized cells that circulate in the bloo [..]

Immune response mediated by antigen-specific T-lymphocytes.

Part of the immune system that deals with viruses and other infectious agents as well as cancer cells.

A type of immune response mounted against viruses, certain types of parasites, and perhaps cancer cells.

Type of immune response that is produced by the direct action of immune cells, such as T lymphocytes (T cells), rather than by antibodies. See Related Term(s): Humoral Immunity, T Lymphocyte

An immune response not involving antibodies, in which specific blood cells, leukocytes, and lymphocytes attack and remove antigens. Challenge, dechallenge and rechallenge

the immune response coordinated by helper T cells and CTLs. This branch of the immune system targets cells infected with microorganisms such as viruses, fungi, and certain bacteria.

 Immunity, which is dependent on the sensitisation of certain white blood cells, rather than antibodies. CHeCS -

Part of the immune system in which specific immune system cells, such as cytotoxic T cells, directly attack infected cells.

The immune response coordinated by helper T cells and CTLs. This branch of the immune system targets cells infected with microorganisms such as viruses, fungi and certain bacteria.

Acquired immunity as a result of T-Lymphocytes and activated macrophages.

When the immune system fights infection via cell to cell combat rather than antibody contact. The defense cells used in cell-mediated immunity are killer T-cells, macrophages, and other white blood ce [..]

Immune defense in which T-lymphocytes come in close proximity with their victim cells, as opposed to humoral immunity which is provided by the secretion of antibodies into the blood or lymph (humors) by B-lymphocytes.
