Antibodies act as opsonins, agglutinins, and antitoxins, aiding phagocytes in engulfing pathogens and neutralizing toxins.
Antikorlar opsonin, aglutinin va antitoksinlar sifatida harakat qilib, fagotsitlarning patogenlarni iste'mol qilishini osonlashtiradi.
| Front | Antibodies modes of action 4.1.1(h) and (i) |
|---|---|
| Back | antibodies defending body - antibody of complex acts as an opsonin, so complex easily engulfed/digested by phagocytes - pathogens cant effectively invade hosts cell once part of complex - antibodies act as agglutinins, causing pathogens carrying complexes to clump together, preventing them speading through body and easier to engulf all at same time - antibodies can act as anti toxins, binding to toxin produced by pathogen making it harmless |
