'''T cells''' are [[lymphocyte]]s that play an important role in [[cell-mediated immunity]]. They are distinguished from other lymphocyte subsets such as [[B cell]]s and [[natural killer cell]]s by the [[T-cell receptor]] on the cell surface. They mature in the [[thymus]]. ==Types of T cells== * [[T helper cell]] * [[Cytotoxic T cell]] * [[Regulatory T cell]] * [[Natural killer T cell]] ==Notable studies related to ME/CFS== * 2000, Comparative Analysis of Lymphocytes in Lymph Nodes and Peripheral Blood of Patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome<ref>{{Cite journal | last = Fletcher | first = Mary Ann | authorlink = Mary Ann Fletcher | last2 = Maher | first2=Kevin | author-link2 = | last3 = Patarca-Montero | first3 = Roberto | author-link3 = Roberto Patarca-Montero | last4 = Klimas | first4 = Nancy | author-link4 = Nancy Klimas | date = Jan 2000 | title = Comparative Analysis of Lymphocytes in Lymph Nodes and Peripheral Blood of Patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome|url=http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1300/J092v07n03_06|journal=Journal of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome|language=en|volume=7|issue=3 | pages = 65β75|doi=10.1300/J092v07n03_06|issn=1057-3321|pmc=|pmid=|access-date=|quote=|via=}}</ref> - [https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1300/J092v07n03_06 (Abstract)] *2016, A Preliminary Comparative Assessment of the Role of CD8+ T Cells in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Multiple Sclerosis<ref name="Brenu2016" /> - [http://www.hindawi.com/journals/jir/2016/9064529/abs/ (Abstract)] *2018, Association of T and [[Natural killer cell|NK cell]] phenotype with the diagnosis of [[ME/CFS|Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)]]<ref name="Rivas, 2018" /> - [https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fimmu.2018.01028/abstract (Abstract)] *2020, Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome patients exhibit altered T cell metabolism and cytokine associations<ref name="Mandarano2020">{{Cite journal | last =Mandarano | first = Alexandra H. | author-link = Alexandra Mandarano | last2 = Maya | first2=Jessica | authorlink2 = | last3 = Giloteaux | first3 = Ludovic | author-link3 = Ludovic Giloteaux | last4 = Peterson | first4 = Daniel L. | authorlink4 = Daniel Peterson | last5 = Maynard | first5 = Marco | authorlink5 = | last6 = Gottschalk | first6 = C.
