Which hormone plays a vital role in immunity?

Answer

The thymus gland secretes thymosins which play a major role in the differentiation of T-lymphocytes, which provide cell-mediated immunity. In addition thymosins also increase the production of antibodies to provide humoral immunity. Thus, these hormones play a vital role in immunity of the body.
