Human immunity relies heavily on the body's ability to respond to viruses and parasites in order to eradicate pathogens and maintain a consistent level of health. While the innate immune system provides an immediate, albeit non-specific, response to generalized exposure, the adaptive immune system is of greater significance to trypanosomiasis. The acquired immune system is involved in the production of antibodies in response to antigens and is greatly limited by trypanosome protein interactions.
