T cells compare non-self antigens to HLA (human leukocyte antigens) molecules with proteins the system already knows are its own. Your T-cells don't react to your HLA because of tolerance but are not tolerant to the HLA proteins of someone else. Thus, when there is a non-self system in your body (i.e.: after a transplant), your T-cells will begin a cell-mediated immune response against it, considering them foreign.
After a white blood cell consumes a virus, it communicates with the rest of the immune system to generate proteins known as antibodies. These antibodies lock themselves onto a virus and disable it. Although a white blood cell does destroy the virus, there aren't enough white blood cells to combat viral infections. It is the antibodies that actually destroy the infection. The white blood cell just gets the process started.
Self and non-self recognition based upon the Major Histocompatibility Complex markers (MHC markers) allow the cells of the immune system to identify antigens (foreign invaders). When the immune system loses the ability to differentiate between self and non-self, autoimmune disorders occur (ex: Rheumatoid arthritis, Grave's Disease, Multiple Sclerosis) in which the immune system attacks the body's own tissues.
If it did not it would begin to destroy itself. This is what happens in autoimmune disorders. It should only attack non-self cells, etc.
So it won't attack 'self'.
it uses white blood cells
HIV, also known as AIDS.
Yes it does, the one responsible for this is our immune system. When a virus enters our body, our immune system recognizes this virus as a foreign invader and will then proceed to produce antibodies that will help fight off the virus.
Your body's immune system had antibodies that fight against the bacteria or virus infecting you.
If you have a weak immune system, you have an increased risk of developing malignancy. Your immune system cannot fight the virus and so the virus has control and it able to invade the cervical cells and induce tumour growth.
the immune system. it the reason you cant get chicken pox twice. as soon as you get it your immune system produces things to kill the virus.
The HIV virus kills the helper T-cells which are part of your immune system.
Viruses cannot be destroyed, although doctors can give you vaccines to help fight the virus with your white blood cells in your immune system.
Antibody is a type of protein produced by the immune system, its function is to fight antigens (bacteri, virus)

It Might Help The Immune System Remember How To Fight The Virus, So When You Get The Same Sickness Later, The Recovery Date Will Be Shorter
Your white blood cells fight it. They're like the defenders of your body that reside in the immune system.
Yes because your immune system can fight and destroy it. Not all viruses can be destroyed. (HIV and AIDs for example)
