  2. Lymphocyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphocyte

    A lymphocyte is a type of white blood cell (leukocyte) in the immune system of most vertebrates. [1] Lymphocytes include T cells (for cell-mediated and cytotoxic adaptive immunity), B cells (for humoral, antibody-driven adaptive immunity), [2] [3] and innate lymphoid cells (ILCs; "innate T cell-like" cells involved in mucosal immunity and homeostasis), of which natural killer cells are an ...

  3. Reactive lymphocyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactive_lymphocyte

    Reactive lymphocyte surrounded by red blood cells. In immunology, reactive lymphocytes, variant lymphocytes, atypical lymphocytes, Downey cells or Türk cells are cytotoxic (CD8 +) lymphocytes that become large as a result of antigen stimulation. Typically, they can be more than 30 μm in diameter with varying size and shape.

    Lymphocyte: 30%: Small lymphocytes 7–8 Large lymphocytes 12–15: B cells: releases antibodies and assists activation of T cells; T cells: CD4+ T helper cells: activate and regulate T and B cells; CD8+ cytotoxic T cells: virus-infected and tumor cells. Gamma delta T cells: bridge between innate and adaptive immune responses; phagocytosis

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed–Sternberg_cell

    They are usually derived from B lymphocytes, classically considered crippled germinal center B cells. In the vast majority of cases, the immunoglobulin genes of Reed–Sternberg cells have undergone both V(D)J recombination and somatic hypermutation, establishing an origin from a germinal center or postgerminal center B cell. Despite having the ...

  7. White blood cell differential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_blood_cell_differential

    A white blood cell differential is a medical laboratory test that provides information about the types and amounts of white blood cells in a person's blood. The test, which is usually ordered as part of a complete blood count (CBC), measures the amounts of the five normal white blood cell types – neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils – as well as abnormal cell ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_of_differentiation

    The CD nomenclature was proposed and established in the 1st International Workshop and Conference on Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens (HLDA), held in Paris in 1982. [4] [5] This system was intended for the classification of the many monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) generated by different laboratories around the world against epitopes on the surface molecules of leukocytes (white blood cells).

  9. Lymph node - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymph_node

    Diagram of a lymph node showing lymphocytes. The primary function of lymph nodes is the filtering of lymph to identify and fight infection. In order to do this, lymph nodes contain lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell, which includes B cells and T cells. These circulate through the bloodstream and enter and reside in lymph nodes. [24]
