It is a complex process initiated by tissue damage caused by endogenous factors

The sequence of events in the journey of leukocytes from the vessel lumen to the

• Lag
• No antibody is detectable
• Log
• The antibody titer increases logarithmically
• Plateau
• The antibody titer stabilizes
• Decline
• The antibody is catabolized
