The atypical lymphocytes have been best studied from blood of patients with infectious mononucleosis. Early studies suspect that atypical lymphocytes could have both T or B cells features; now it is more suggested that reactive lymphocytes are activated T-lymphocytes produced in response to infected

Downey type II cell is the most common type of reactive lymphocyte. In general, those cells may vary in morphologic detail as well as surface marker characteristics since this is the result of a polyclonal immune response to antigenic stimulation. All three types of Downey cells were observed along

Reactive lymphocytes have been found to accumulate in areas of inflammation like the liver and pharynx of individuals with infectious mononucleosis and skin window preparations. In infectious mononucleosis, the atypical lymphocytes are one component of a normal immune system that helps to control
