The Immune System
... CD8 cells are T cells that have a protein called CD8 on their surface. When CD8 cells recognize a specific infection, such as HIV, they can develop into what are often referred to as killer T cells or CTLs (cytotoxic T lymphocytes). These killer T cells seek out and kill other cells that are already ...
