Cell-Mediated Immunity Vs. Humoral Response


	Cell-Mediated Immunity Vs. Humoral Response
	Similarities both use helper T cells (T lymphocytes) both result in memory cells both respond to antigens both are specific defence mechanisms both involve division by mitosis (clonal selection)	Differences humoral response is in the blood and tissue fluids cell mediated response is in cells that present antigens cell mediated does not result in any antibodies cell mediated immunity results in a lot more responses: cytotoxic T cells, phagocytosis stimulation, B cell stimulation humoral results in plasma cells usually helper T cells respond to viruses only humoral response is the vaccine-related response
	Overall comparison Very different responses

humoral response is in the blood and tissue fluids
cell mediated response is in cells that present antigens
cell mediated does not result in any antibodies
cell mediated immunity results in a lot more responses: cytotoxic T cells, phagocytosis stimulation, B cell stimulation
humoral results in plasma cells
usually helper T cells respond to viruses only
humoral response is the vaccine-related response
