Boob Goes The Antigen......
a: Antibody ~
b: the fuse which activates the firecracker
What: "The mast cell is like the gunpowder in a firecracker, the antibody is like the fuse which activates the firecracker & the protein is like the spark which lights the fuse. All these elements are necessary for a fire cracker to go off, so too all these three are required for an allergic reaction to take place."
