In the immune response what kind of cells trigger the production of b cells and killer t cells?

In the immune response, helper T cells (specifically CD4+ T cells) play a crucial role in triggering the production of B cells and cytotoxic T cells (killer T cells). When activated by antigen-presenting cells, helper T cells release cytokines that stimulate B cells to produce antibodies and enhance the activation and proliferation of killer T cells. This coordinated response is essential for effectively targeting and eliminating pathogens.
