The Role of T Lymphocytes in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Abstract：T lymphocytes originate from the bone marrow and mature in the thymus. According to their effector functions and recognition of different types of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules, they are divided into CD8 cytotoxic and CD4 helper T cells. From the perspective of adaptive immunity, CD4 T cells are early disease biomarkers with neuroprotective functions; CD8 T cells play a crucial role in eliminating cells infected by pathogens.
