The following are examples of APCs except:
A
Dendritic Cells
B
Macrophages
C
B-lymphocytes
D
T-lymphocytes (helper)
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -T Helper (Th) Lymphocytes T helper cells recognize viral peptides in association with class II MHC protein, usually on the surface of an antigen-presenting cell (APC).

Detailed explanation-2: -Human T cells express major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigens and adhesion molecules characteristic of antigen-presenting cells (APCs), and recent in vitro and in vivo evidence supports an antigen-presenting function for T cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Helper T cells themselves, however, can only function when activated to become effector cells. They are activated on the surface of antigen-presenting cells, which mature during the innate immune responses triggered by an infection.
