              Macrophage       As viruses start to invade the
                               body, some will be captured by
                               the antigens with the assistance
                               of the macrophages and subse-

              cell             lions of T helper cells travelling
                               in the circulatory system have
                               the ability to "read" this specific
                               antigen. These particular T cells
                               become active when they bind
