Immune Response
Bodily defense process
Immune response involves barriers, innate cells, and adaptive antibodies and T-cells working in sequence.
- innate immunity
- adaptive immunity
- antibodies
- antigens
- t-cells
Inputs
Pathogen presence detected by pattern recognition receptors.
Process
Innate cells respond rapidly; antigen presentation activates adaptive B and T cells.
Outputs
Neutralization, clearance, and memory cells for faster future response.
