The main function of an antibody is to attach specifically to antigens, such as allergens (e.g., viruses, bacteria, fungi, dust, chemicals, pollen, or food proteins), which are foreign particles. It is produced by a host and works by binding to the epitope of the antigen to render it inactive. The immune system has the ability […]

A traditional view, still held by many scientists, is that the immune system is self-governing. That is to say that it is self-regulatory and functions autonomous and separate from the rest of the body. With the growing focus on the comparatively new science of Psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) these old views are becoming less reasonable. The goal […]
