Illustration based on SEM of a single T-lymphocyte
Illustration based on a scanning electron micrograph of a single T-lymphocyte, a class of white blood cell. The T-cell develops in the thymus & is a key component of the immune system involved in cell-mediated response to invasion of body by foreign organisms or particles, notably viruses and some bacteria, which are protected from direct attack from antibodies (produced by B- lymphocytes) by their host cells. Unlike B-cells, T-cells do not produce antibodies; instead they recognize selective surface antigens on infected cells and certain types (" killer" T-cells) proceed to destroy infected cells by direct contact

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intricate illustration based on a scanning electron micrograph of a single T-lymphocyte, one of the remarkable white blood cells found in our body. Developed within the thymus, these T-cells play a vital role as key components of our immune system. They are primarily responsible for orchestrating cell-mediated responses against foreign invaders such as viruses and certain bacteria. Unlike their counterparts, B-lymphocytes that produce antibodies, T-cells possess a unique ability to recognize specific surface antigens present on infected cells. Once identified, certain types of T-cells known as "killer". T-cells unleash their power by directly engaging with and destroying these infected cells through physical contact. This awe-inspiring illustration beautifully captures the complexity and importance of the immune response carried out by T-lymphocytes. It highlights how they safeguard our bodies from harmful organisms or particles that would otherwise be shielded from attack by antibodies produced by B-lymphocytes. Through this mesmerizing visual representation provided by Science Photo Library, we gain insight into the intricate world within us where these incredible white blood cells tirelessly work to protect and preserve our health.
