===About Antibodies===
: [[Antibody|Antibodies]] attach themselves to [[chemical]]s known as [[antigen]]s which are [[protein]]s found on the surfaces of different [[pathogen]]s or other [[Cell (Biology)|cells]].
: Some '''antibodies''' can directly damage or destroy a [[pathogen]].
: Some '''antibodies''' attach themselves to [[pathogen]]s to make it easier for [[phagocyte]]s to engulf and destroy them. They act like tags to tell the [[phagocyte]]s which [[Cell (Biology)|cells]] to attack.
: When an [[organism]] is [[infected]] [[lymphocyte]]s produce hundreds of different '''antibodies''' until one works.
: Once a [[lymphocyte]] has produce a working [[antibody]] it will remember and reproduce it any time the same [[pathogen]] [[infection|infects]] the [[organism]].
: If a patient's own '''antibodies''' are not able to get rid of a [[pathogen]] [[scientist]]s can find and [[organism]] that makes '''antibodies''' that do work and copy them to be injected into the patient. These are called [[Monoclonal Antibody|monoclonal '''antibodies''']].
