Course Overview.

Brief introduction to lymphoid cells, it’s concentration in our body, types of lymphoid cells, brief discussion about these cells, monoclonal antibody and cluster of differentiation.

Lymphoid Cells.

The derivation of the names of the cells, their surface molecules, the path of division of the cell following antigen stimulation and their functions.

B and T Lymphocytes.

Natural killer cells discussed in detail, their surface components, mode of action and also NKT cells and their mode of action.

Natural Killer Cells

Granulocytic Cells

Monocytes and macrophages are discussed in detail. From the site of formation to the site of maturation - the path is described in detail along with their functions.

Mononuclear Phagocytes

The process of adherence of the phagocyte to the antigen, digestion, and presentation of the antigen are discussed in detail under the broad topic called phagocytosis.

Phagocytosis Followed by Digestion and Presentation of Antigen.

The structure and functions of mast cells, dendritic cells and follicular dendritic cells are discussed in detail. The types of dendritic cells and their locations are also mentioned.
