Specific Immune Response

During Specific Immune Response, antibodies are produced, which will recognize and bind to specific antigen, and either neutralise the pathogen or flag it for the removal by other lymphocytes (T-cells)

• Once antibodies have been made against certain antigens, a few remain in the blood, which can trigger quicker immune response during infection.
• Moreover, certain T-cells and B-cells remember the specific antigens of pathogens and form memory lymphocytes. During next similar infection, memory B cells quickly differentiate and produce matching antibodies, while memory T cells rapidly multiply to destroy infected cells.
