Specialty Definition: T-LYMPHOCYTES, CYTOTOXIC

DomainDefinition

Health

Immunized T-lymphocytes which can directly destroy appropriate target cells. These cytotoxic lymphocytes may be generated in vitro in mixed lymphocyte cultures (MLC), in vivo during a graft-versus-host (GVH) reaction, or after immunization with an allograft, tumor cell or virally transformed or chemically modified target cell. The lytic phenomenon is sometimes referred to as cell-mediated lympholysis (CML). These cells are distinct from natural killer cells and from killer cells mediating antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity. (references)
