Description
T-cell attacking cancer cell. Computer illustration of a T-lymphocyte white blood cell (round, centre left) destroying a malignant (cancerous) cell (red). T-lymphocytes, or T-cells, are a type of white blood cell and a component of the body's immune system. They recognise a specific site (antigen) on the surface of a pathogen or foreign object, bind to it, and produce antibodies or cells to eliminate it.
