MeSH Heading: Immunological Memory Cells
Tree Number(s): A11.118.637.555.567.269
Unique ID: D000091244
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D000091244
Scope Note: Antigen-specific immunologic cells which have a potential to form IMMUNOLOGIC MEMORY providing a rapid and robust response against a second encounter with the same antigen. Immunologic memory cells typically include B-Lymphocytes T-Lymphocytes and sometimes adaptive NK cells. Building immunologic memory cells is a basis of how a vaccine affords immunity to a specific pathogen.
