Innate immunity: pathogen-associated molecular patterns are recognized by Toll-like receptors. When the pathogen invades the host cell, the neutrophil and natural killer cells start digesting the pathogen. However, the macrophages and DC phagocytose the pathogen and act as antigen-presenting cells, producing a cytokine storm for attracting other immune cells to amplify the response.
