Abstract :
Our immune response has evolved to counteract foreign antigens, such as viruses and bacteria. Both cellular and humoral antibody responses can be triggered as a result of infection. However, the immune system may undesirably react to non-infectious agents such as food, pollen (allergies) allograft (transplant rejection) and respond to hidden or unhidden self-antigens (auto-immunity).
