Pathogens as you probably know is a micro-organism which causes diseases by releasing toxins into the blood supply. This is countered by white blood cells that are in the blood stream which basically 'eat' the microbe and the enzymes it contains breaks down the bacteria and will die inside the white blood cell. Or antibodies are created to neutralize the toxins and the bacteria themselves.
