| antigen p. |
the activity in which macrophages ingest and partially digest antigens and then present the processed antigen on their surfaces to B and T lymphocytes. The presented antigen is more immunogenic than unprocessed antigen, possibly because it has been broken down into pieces more easily recognized by B and T cells, because it remains on the surface of the presenting cell for a long time, or because it is presented in association with self MHC antigen and thus able to stimulate helper T cells. The principal antigen-presenting cells are dendritic cells in B-dependent areas of lymphoid tissues, interdigitating cells in T-dependent areas, and Langerhans cells in the epidermis.
