The formation of cytotoxic t-lymphocytes

Reference no: EM13533894

Although β-lymphocytes are not produced in the thymus,removal of the thymus from a young animal decreases the productionof antibodies by β-lymphocytes as well as impairing the formation of cytotoxic T-lymphocytes. Explain this observation.
