Antibody Response
Antibodies are proteins produced by the immune system in response to foreign molecules (antigens). They are a key component of the adaptive immune system, which helps the body distinguish between self molecules and foreign molecules as part of the immune response. Antibodies recognize and attach to antigens and help the body to fight off infection, providing protection from viruses, bacteria and many other pathogens. Antibodies also play a major role in the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases, including cancer, allergies and autoimmune diseases. Thus, an antibody response is an essential part of the body's defense system and is crucial for maintaining good health.
