1 B CELL

Produces special antibodies using the information of

the antigens.They deactivate the pathogen by
binding to the antigen. They are part of the humoral
and specific response.

2 T CELL
Search and destroys infected cells by releasing a protein
called perforin which makes holes in the cell membrane and
causes the cell to do apoptosis(self-destruction). Part of the
specific response.

3 NK CELL
The Natural Killer cells are members of the innate immune
reponse. They are large non-phagocytic cell that play a role in
defend againts intracellular and extracellular pathogens. All
their function is to kill, they have no clear specification to
follow. They limit the spread andsubsequent tissue damage.

4 NEUTROPHIL CELL
Neutrophil cells defend againts pathogens by
phagocytosis. They are of rapid innate defense againts
most bacterial and fungi pathogens before they can
act over an infection.

5 EOSINOPHIL
Its functions are trapping substances, killing cells,
movement to inflamed areas, immediate participation in
allergic reactions and modulate inflammatory reactions.
Some of its functions are similar to other white cells,

6 BASOPHIL CELL
Basophil cells don't ingest pathogens, they have another type
of mechanism to create reactions in the body such as
inflammation and swelling. They contain granules with
substances that create allergic reactions that led to blood
flow in damaged tissues.

7 MACROPHAGE
It is a typeof phagocyte involved in the detection and
destruction of bacteria and other harmful organisms.
They present antigens to T cells and initiate
innflamation to activate other cells.

8 DENDRITIC CELL
They are derived leukocytes from the bone marrow and are
the most potent type of antigen-presenting cells. They
initiate the adaptive immune responses of the body and act
like "soldiers" of the immune system and are specialized to
capture and process antigens.

9 MAST CELL
Cell filled with substances that work with allergic and
inflammatory responses. They release histamine which
causes blood vessels to dilate and become leakier near
the injury, this makes it easier for white cells to reach
the area. They are part of the non specific response
