T cell

Antibody

B cell —> antibody —> epitope

Antibacterial response

macrophage, dendritic cell, neutrophil

macrophage

phagocytosis and activation of bactericidal mechanisms

antigen presentations

antigen presentation

neutrophil

phagocytosis and activation of bactericidal mechanisms

anti-eukaryotic response

eosinophil, basophil, mast cell

eosinophil

killing of antibody-coated parasites

basophil

promotion of allergic responses and augmentation of anti-parasitic immunity

mast cell

release of granules containing histamine and active agents

NK Cell

a type of lymphocyte that plays a crucial role in the innate immune response by targeting and destroying infected or cancerous cells
