Q

Cell mediated immunity (CMI)
The primary effectors of CMI are cytotoxic T cells (killer T cells, CD8+T cells, CTLs)
Activated macrophages also participate Cytotoxic T cells kill other cells
The primary targets of cytotoxic T cells are usually pathogen-infected cells
Like humoral immunity, CMI depends on specific recognition of an antigen by a protein: T-cell receptor
