Hello every one ,

Antigen Presenting Cells 

Now I would like explain the above diagram with the help of o short story

INTRODUCING :
Ag as Thief
APC as hero
Macrophage as police

One day a thief  (Ag) entered a house to take over it , as thief looked dangerous  ( infectious ) and just wanted  to make the house his own territory. By seeing thief (Ag) all members in family( cells) were afraid and small children started crying (Signal or Stimulation). Then entered hero (APC)( Immune system stimulated) who fought with the thief ( Ag processing) ,  handed it  over to the police ( Macrophage) ( Ag Presentation) . The thief was put into jail and sentenced to death ( degradation by hydrolyzing enzymes) by the court (Ag digestion).

Hope you like this
Thank you
With love, Dixy
