Summary Introduction
To review:
The adaptive immune response of the body when the common cold virus enters through the nose.
Introduction:
Adaptive immune responses can be of two types—the humoral immune response, in which the antibodies are produced, and the cell-mediated immune response, in which the infected cells are destroyed. These immune responses take place simultaneously and in a coordinated manner.
