exp:

  • T cells cannot be activated by soluble antigens.
  • Therefore, presentation of processed antigen by antigen presenting cells is required for activation of T cell.
  • The initial step in immune response (whether humoral or cellular) is phagocytosis of the antigen by antigen presenting cells.
  • These antigen presenting cells process and present the antigen to T cells.
  • These activated T cells then interact with B cells (in humoral immunity) or with other T cells (in cell mediated immune response)
