Its foreign molecule which induce the immune system in the
body.
It stimulates the lymphocytes to produce the antibody.
T-cell and B-cell are the antigen presenting cells.
Its majorly classified into two types
1. Exogenous antigen.
 Endogenous antigen.
 And endogenous antigen is fatherly classified into 3 types
1. Heterogenic antigen.
2. Allogenic antigen.
3. Autologous antigen.
This type of antigen are enter from the outside of the body.
This antigen entering site are macrophages, dentric cells etc.
Example: virus, bacteria and fungi etc.
These type of antigen found inside the cytosol of the human
cells.
Example: viral protein, tumer protein etc.
It was in three types.
It also known as xenogenic antigen.
It is foreign molecules related with the tissue
transplantation and serology at the time entering
molecule are heterogenic antigen.
This type of antigen occurs only in the
individual species.
For example blood group antigen.
The antigen originate from the body it self is
autologous antigen.
Example: Thyroglobulin and DNA etc.
