| Type: white blood cell |
| T cells are white blood cells that play a central role in the adaptive immune response. Subsets and Function: Cytotoxic T Cells (CD8+): Recognize and kill infected or malignant cells. Helper T Cells (CD4+): Assist in orchestrating the immune response by secreting cytokines and supporting the functions of other immune cells. T cells, particularly CD8+ cytotoxic T cells, can recognize tumor antigens presented on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules and directly kill malignant cells. Regulatory T Cells (Tregs): Maintain immune tolerance and prevent autoimmunity but may also suppress anti-tumor responses in the tumor microenvironment. Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs): Tumor Microenvironment: The presence of T cells within tumors, often referred to as tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, is a key indicator of an ongoing anti-tumor immune response. Regulatory T Cells (Tregs): Tregs within the tumor environment may inhibit the activity of cytotoxic T cells through the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines (e.g., IL-10, TGF-β), thus allowing tumors to evade the immune response. In many cancers, a robust T cell infiltrate is correlated with a better overall survival, lower rates of relapse, and improved responses to therapy. Assessing the type, density, and activation state of T cells in the tumor microenvironment can provide valuable prognostic information. High levels of active, cytotoxic T cells generally indicate a better prognosis. |
