Phagocytosis |
Phagocyte engulfs a pathogen and hydrolysises it using lysozymes. They remove them through exocytosis. They retain the antigens and present them on there cell membrane to stimulate the cell mediated response. |
|
|
T lymphocytes |
A specific t helper cell brings to the foreign antigens on the phagocytes plasma membrane. This activates the division of t cells through mitosis. Some go on to stimulate b cells, stimulate phagocytosis, activate cytotoxic t cells or become memory cells |
|
|
B lymphocytes |
They are stimulated by t helper cells through clonal selection. Plasma cells secrete antibodies specific to the antigen, helping to destroy it. Some develop into memory cells |
