Figure 59. These are the Th cells during a viral infection. A large number of active
T helper cells is deployed to eliminate the threat.
Figure 60. Cytotoxic T-cells responding to a viral infection. During the acute phase of
the infection, some Tc become anergic by overstimulation. However, these anergic Tc
are very few, and the majority of cytotoxic cells are actively killing infected epithelial
cells.
Figure 61. During the viral infection, macrophages and dendritic cells do their job by
capturing soluble virus particles and presenting these antigens to helper T-cells.
