Solution
The correct option is B CD 4
- T-cells are a type of white blood cell that plays a central role in cell-mediated immunity.
- T-helper cell assists other white blood cells in immunologic processes, including maturation of B cells into plasma cells and memory B cells and activation of cytotoxic T cells and macrophages. These cells are also known as CD4+ T cells because they express the CD4 glycoprotein on their surfaces.
- Cytotoxic T-cells destroy virus-infected cells and tumour cells and are also implicated in transplant rejection. These cells are also known as CD8+ T cells since they express the CD8 glycoprotein at their surfaces.
- So, the correct answer is 'CD 4'.
