One thing I learned in this three-class lesson is about some cell called macrophage. Macrophages kill and eat up other cells called antibodies that don't belong in the body. It reads each cells DNA and if there is one that doesn't match to your DNA then that antibody gets eaten. This process is called phagocytosis and basically kills antibodies by eating them.
