The human immune system responds to a wide variety of pathogens and microorganisms to defend the body. Investigating the cell types and molecular markers of the immune system are critical for the understanding of diseases and finding treatments. Antigen presenting cells (APCs) are sentinels of the immune system that sample the surrounding environment and educate the components of the adaptive immuCan parts of the immune system be utilized for new effective cancer treatments? The immune system is a defense network for our body to respond against outside invaders including bacteria, fungi and viruses, and protect us from diseases by, for instance, removing infected or abnormal cells. The innate immune system acts as a rapid response system for recognizing foreign, potentially dangerous age
