Question
Chapter 26.8, Problem 1MQ
Summary Introduction
T cells should have the capability to differentiate between the harmless self-antigens, present in our body tissues and the possibly dangerous nonself antigens. Hence, T cells acquire specific unresponsiveness to self-antigens or tolerance. Matured lymphocytes recognize pathogenic organisms, generate antibodies, thereby, destroying the pathogen that could potentially cause damage to the host.
