    immune cell involved in allergic reactions and parasite defense

    A T-helper 2 (Th2) cell is a type of immune cell that plays a crucial role in the body's defense against extracellular parasites, such as helminths, and is also involved in allergic reactions. Th2 cells produce cytokines like IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13, which help stimulate the production of antibodies by B cells and promote the activation of other immune cells.
