Dr. Begely: As I was saying, B-cells are also extraordinarily important because they produce antibodies... those, of course, help to physically kill viruses ... or any other such invaders of the body. When B lymphocytes transform into plasma cells, they pump out thousands of antibodies... pure virus killing material... it's incredible.

Dr. Shelly: Well, T-cells control all the aspects of immune system communication. They are really the commanders of the whole operation. T-cells control... the destruction and removal of foreign particles... they help activate almost all the other cells involved in fighting off an infection... and they monitor and adjust antibody levels in the body.
