Abstract

If asked to pick a cell type as a biological metaphor for an independent free-spirited entity, many biologists might pick the lymphocyte. Unlike most other cell types in the body, lymphocytes can and must be able to move about the body, a dynamic circulating surveillance system. The fast-moving lymphocyte- on the go- has been an obvious center of attention for decades now; where lymphocytes go, what they do, what they need in order to live and function are major issues for immunologists. By contrast, attached, relatively sessile cells seem to have fewer options, be less dynamic, less flexible, less interesting. One widely held assumption has been that those cells coming in contact with lymphocytes, by-in-large play nurturing or minor roles, hence the term “accessory” cell, accessory being defined in one dictionary as “aiding or contributing in a secondary way”. They are viewed as “aides”, even valets or butlers, for “executive” lymphocytes such as CD4+ T cells which have the really important jobs.
