∙ 8y agoAntibodies are proteins made specifically to attach to 'foreign' molecules (the foreign molecules are called antigens). Once attached, the molecule changes to a shape that attaches to receptors on immune cells and activates them to attack whatever the antibody is attached to.
It doesn't matter if it is a virus or bacteria, the antibody system works on anything it thinks is 'non-self'. Each cell in your body has a self marker (with your name on it). If not, your immune system will attack it.
