Preferred Label : th1 cells;
MeSH definition : Subset of helper-inducer T-lymphocytes which synthesize and secrete interleukin-2,
gamma-interferon, and interleukin-12. Due to their ability to kill antigen-presenting
cells and their lymphokine-mediated effector activity, Th1 cells are associated with
vigorous delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions.; A subset of helper-inducer T-lymphocytes which synthesize and secrete INTERLEUKIN-2;
INTERFERON-GAMMA; and INTERLEUKIN-12. Due to their ability to kill antigen-presenting
cells and their lymphokine-mediated effector activity, Th1 cells are associated with
vigorous delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions.;
