🔬 T-Lymphocytes: Our Body’s Natural Defense Against Cancer
Cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, also known as T-killer cells, play an essential role in our immune system by targeting and destroying our body’s own cells that have been compromised. Their targets include cells infected with intracellular parasites such as viruses and certain bacteria, as well as cancerous cells. This ability makes T-killer cells a crucial component of the body’s natural defense system against cancer.
