B-Cell vs. T-Cell
  1. T-Cells
      1. Migrate and mature in the thymus
        1. Have Vertical Antigen Receptors
            1. Bind to Antigen Fragments displayed by the MHC on the cell surface
              1. Helper T- Cells
                1. Cytotoxic T-Cells
                  1. Memory T-Cells
            2. B-Cells
              1. Lymphocytes that are part of Adaptive Immunity
                1. Attack the same specific antigens, function differently
                  1. Each B- and T- Cell creates ~100,000 of antigen receptors of ONE TYPE
                    1. B- and T- Cells carrying the same specific antigen receptor proliferate in the presence of an infection
                      1. Antigen
                        1. Cell product (toxin-released into extracellular fluid)
                          1. Pathogenic cell itself - Proteins or polysaccharides
                            1. Epitope - accessible part
                            2. When binded to same antigen, proliferates and differentiates to:
                              1. Effector Cells (PRIMARY RESPONSE)
                                1. Memory Cells (SECONDARY RESPONSE)
                        2. Remain and mature in the bone-marrow
                          1. Have Y-Shaped Antigen Receptors
                            1. Share Constant Regions - anchors to cell surface
                              1. Bind to the epitope of the antigen - OUTSIDE cells
                                1. Plasma Cells
                                  1. Secretes Antibodies
                                  2. Memory B-Cells
