T cells expressing the transmembrane glycoprotein CD8 (CD8+ T cells). They shut down the immune response after invading organisms are destroyed. Suppressor T cells are sensitive to high concentrations of circulating lymphokine hormones and release their own lymphokines once the immune response has achieved its goal. This signals all other immune system participants to cease their attack. Some memory B cells remain after this signal to prevent a repeated attack by the invading organism. Also known as T-8 cells.
