Antigen presenting cells link innate and adaptive immune responses. In the theoretical scenario where phagosomes cannot be formed, phagocytosis is made ineffective.
a. Could any APCs continue processing and presentation of an antigen in this scenario? How? Explain in less than 25 words.
Solution:-
No, APCs shall fail to processing their presentation as phagocytosis is a must before they present the antigen at the surface. Phagocytosis is a process through which the APCs engulf a foreign body, digest it in phagosomes and present its broken parts on its surface(antigen presentation).
Like if it helps. Best of luck for exams.
