Detailed explanation-1: -T-cells are a type of white blood cell called lymphocytes. They help your immune system fight germs and protect you from disease. There are two main types. Cytotoxic T-cells destroy infected cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cytotoxic T cells kill target cells bearing specific antigen while sparing neighboring uninfected cells. All the cells in a tissue are susceptible to lysis by the cytotoxic proteins of armed effector CD8 T cells, but only infected cells are killed.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) represent one of several types of cells of the immune system that have the capacity to directly kill other cells. They play a major role in host defense against viral infection, as well as infection by other intracellular pathogens that replicate in the cytoplasm of the host cell.
