cell-mediated immunity Immune reaction directed against body cells that have been infected by viruses and bacteria; controlled by T cells.
cell-mediated immunity
The type of immunity that functions in defense against fungi, protists, bacteria, and viruses inside host cells and against tissue transplants, with highly specialized cells that circulate in the blood and lymphoid tissue.

And we believe the predominant mechanism of that protection is a T-cell-mediated immunity, so a cellular-based immunity against the parasite proteins that are expressed in the infected livers, ...
Cell-mediated immunity is controlled by T cells. Antibody-mediated reactions defend against invading viruses and bacteria.
disease arises by reactivation (usually associated with a decline in cell-mediated immunity) of latent virus that persists in spinal or cranial sensory nerve ganglia.
Important to the immune system, they produce circulating antibodies and T-lymphocytes, which are primarily responsible for cell-mediated immunity and can differentiate into helper, killer or suppressor cells.
