Detailed explanation-1: -Cell-mediated immunity or cellular immunity is an immune response that does not involve antibodies. Rather, cell-mediated immunity is the activation of phagocytes, antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, and the release of various cytokines in response to an antigen.
Detailed explanation-2: -Helper T cells, killer T cells, and macrophages are the three main kinds of lymphocytes involved in cell-mediated immunity.
Detailed explanation-3: -The key difference between cell mediated and antibody mediated immunity is that cell mediated immunity destroys infectious particles via cell lysis by cytokines, without the production of antibodies, while antibody mediated immunity destroy pathogens by producing specific antibodies against antigens.
