Stochastic model of T Cell repolarization during target elimination (I) [PDF]
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (T) and natural killer (NK) cells are the main cytotoxic killer cells of the human body to eliminate pathogen-infected or tumorigenic cells (i.e. target cells). Once a NK or T cell has identified a target cell, they form a tight contact zone, the immunological synapse (IS).

Stochastic model of T Cell repolarization during target elimination (II) [PDF]
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (T cells) and natural killer cells form a tight contact, the immunological synapse (IS), with target cells, where they release their lytic granules containing perforin/granzyme and cytokine containing vesicles. During this process the cell repolarizes and moves the microtubule organizing center (MTOC) towards the IS.
