Our bodies do have the ability to make antibodies to something we never have had contact with. These are called natural antibodies.

Natural antibodies are produced by B lymphocytes in the absence of external pathogen stimulation. With their ability to recognize between self and non-self, they comprise an important first-line defense.

Any problem with this formation of natural antibodies, the body would begin to attack itself. This is seen in autoimmune disorders.

Can your body make antibodies for pathogen that you have never been in contact with?

It varies, but most likely not.


Can you make antibodies for diseases you have never come in contact with?

Yes, the immune system has the ability to generate antibodies against a wide range of foreign antigens, even those the individual has never been exposed to. This is because the immune system can recognize and respond to a vast array of potential pathogens based on their unique structures.


Do antibodies make a person immune to disease?

I wouldn't say so specifically.However yes antibodies help the bodies immune system by working in three ways. Either the stimulate an immune response to a pathogen e.g activating the complement system, they can also prevent pathogens from entering the body and damaging cells or in some case they might bind to or try to smother a pathogen to death. Antibodies have also been know to consume pathogens. Diet is one very important way in which you can stimulate and boost your immune system


What do plasma cells form from?

Plasma cells form from B cells that have been specifically activated by antigens. Upon activation, B cells differentiate into plasma cells which are responsible for producing and secreting antibodies to fight off pathogens.


What is toxoid?

Toxoids are inactivated toxins from pathogens. They are used to stimulate the production of antibodies. Though many pathogens are not harmful themselves, the toxins they are produce cause sickness. Toxoids can be used to protect the body against such illnesses. Both tetanus and diphtheria immunization use toxoids.


What are the major advantages of antiserum?

Antiserum can provide immediate passive immunity to specific pathogens by delivering preformed antibodies. It can be used in emergency situations to treat venomous bites or infections. It is also effective in preventing certain diseases, such as rabies, in individuals who may have been exposed.


What effect does the vaccine have on the body?

A vaccine contains the pathogen ( a foreign body which causes diseases/illnesses) which the virus is designed to provide protection for ie: a flu vaccine will contain a flu virus, measles has the measles virus etc... - but they have been treated so they are in effect dead and so will cause no symptoms, your body can only recognise a pathogen, it does not know that it is dead and can not harm you,so your body produces antibodies ( cells that fight off and remove pathogens from the body) to fight this vaccine, the antibodies remain in the body forever (unless you have an autoimmune/immunodeficiency illness) so when you come into contact with say the flu your body already has the antibodies and you don't get sick because your body removes the pathogen before it gets chance to take hold.

What does a vaccine do when it enters your body?

A vaccine is actually a severely weakened version of the virus being vaccinated against.. The body recognizes this weak virus as a threat and builds antibodies to deal with that specific threat. After these antibodies have been created, your body then has a mechanism to destroy future infections of this virus before it has a chance to make you sick.
