    GlossaryImmune Receptor

    protein on immune cells that detects foreign substances

    An immune receptor, also known as an immunoreceptor, is a protein found on the surface of immune cells, such as T cells and B cells. These receptors recognize and bind to specific antigens (foreign substances like bacteria or viruses), triggering an immune response to help the body fight off infections.
