Can someone please explain the features of a TH1 vs a TH2 immune
response? I gather that a TH1 cell is more of a cytokine-producing
cell, while a TH2 cell is more directly involved in encouraging
antibody production in a B cell. A list of relevant cytokines and
cell surface markers would be nice to know, too. Thanks.
