Antigen Isotypes

Antigen isotypes are components of the immune system that help the body recognize foreign substances and proteins. They are proteins expressed on the surface of white blood cells and other cells that bind and recognize certain molecules. Antigen isotypes are essential in helping the body identify and respond to infectious agents and other foreign substances, including toxins and allergens. They act as a gateway for the body to mount an immune response, activate other cells of the immune system, and help form antibodies. Antigen isotypes can also be used to differentiate between different types of antigens, helping us diagnose and treat certain diseases.
