Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The regulatory T (Treg) cell's role is to control or limit the immune response to protect the host's own tissues against autoimmune reactions. Cytotoxic T cells attack and kill cellular targets directly. Th2 cells provide help for developing B cells and produce IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, and IL-13. Th1 cells are induced by antigens derived from cancer cells.
