Lymphocytes

A lymphocyte is a type of white blood cell in the vertebrate immune system. Lymphocytes include natural killer cells (which function in cell-mediated, cytotoxic innate immunity), T cells (for cell-mediated, cytotoxic adaptive immunity), and B cells (for humoral, antibody-driven adaptive immunity).

High lymphocyte blood levels indicate your body is dealing with an infection or other inflammatory condition. Most often, a temporarily high lymphocyte count is a normal effect of your body's immune system working. Sometimes, lymphocyte levels are elevated because of a serious condition, like leukemia.

Lymphocytopenia is an abnormally low number of lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) in the blood. Many disorders can decrease the number of lymphocytes in the blood, but viral infections (including AIDS) and undernutrition are the most common.

Five types of lymphocytes (Ig-theta-, Ig-theta+weak, Ig-theta+strong, Ig+theta- and Ig+theta+) characterized by double immunofluorescence and electrophoretic mobility.

The normal range for lymphocytes is between 800 and 5000 (0.8-5.0) lymphocytes per mL of blood. A normal lymphocytes percentage is 18-45% of total white blood cells.

Microscopically, in a Wright's stained peripheral blood smear, a normal lymphocyte has a large, dark-staining nucleus with little to no eosinophilic cytoplasm. In normal situations, the coarse, dense nucleus of a lymphocyte is approximately the size of a red blood cell (about 7 μm in diameter).

Lymphocytes are white blood cells that are also one of the body's main types of immune cells. They are made in the bone marrow and found in the blood and lymph tissue. The immune system is a complex network of cells known as immune cells that include lymphocytes.

Healthy ways to strengthen your immune system

1. Don't smoke.
2. Eat a diet high in fruits and vegetables.
3. Exercise regularly.
4. Maintain a healthy weight.
5. If you drink alcohol, drink only in moderation.
6. Get adequate sleep.
7. Take steps to avoid infection, such as washing your hands frequently and cooking meats thoroughly.

A lymphocyte is a type of white blood cell that is part of the immune system. ... The B cells produce antibodies that are used to attack invading bacteria, viruses, and toxins. The T cells destroy the body's own cells that have themselves been taken over by viruses or become cancerous.

The diagnosis of CLL is dependent on finding on a complete blood count (CBC) an absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) of more than 5,000 or 5,000/microL [5 x 109/L] lymphocytes, specifically more than 5000 clonal B-lymphocytes, present for at least three months.
