INBDE (Integrated National Board Dental Examination) Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 1180

Which cells kill intracellular antigens?

CD8 cells

CD8 cells, also known as cytotoxic T cells, are able to kill intracellular antigens. This is due to their ability to recognize and bind to antigens presented on the surface of infected cells. B cells, on the other hand, are responsible for producing antibodies and are not directly involved in killing antigens. CD4 cells, also known as helper T cells, assist in immune responses but do not have the ability to directly kill intracellular antigens. Mast cells are involved in allergies and immune responses to parasites but do not play a role in killing intracellular antigens.
