The immune granulomas are formed when infection occurs with microbes which are capable of inducing cell mediated response. In these cases i.e., type IV Hypersensitivity T-helper cells produces IL-2 which activates other T cells and macrophages, the activated macrophages in turn form epitheloid cells and help in granuloma formation.
