The ability of your body's immune system to distinguish between your cells and foreign cells depends on your cells what?

At a basic level here's how it works: The surfaces of our cells have protein "markers" embedded in them, each person's markers are unique. If the immune system doesn't recognize the markers on a cell, it will attack it as being foreign. This usually works pretty well asa defense systems go, however, there are times (autoimmune diseases like Grave's disease, MS and rheumitoid arthritis) when the system attacks the body's own cells anyway or other diseases (HIV, etc) where the immune system doesn't recognize foreign cells, so doesn't attack.
