If defects occur in this part, it will not be able to produce diseases that adapt to the immune response (such as chronic granulomatous disease) and autoimmunity, that is, the immune system attacks its own antigen ( For example, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, or myasthenia gravis. The other is due to other immune system lesions, including causing allergic reactions, such as the production of harmless molecular compounds (such as asthma, allergies) or intense reaction.
