In class a few days ago my professor was explaining how most cells in our body contain a marker which distinguishes them as being apart of our bodies rather than foreign and possibly dangerous. He said that this marker was the glycoprotein MHC I. He also said that RBC did not contain this marker, so, I was wonder why our bodies don't attack our red blood cells (RBC). ((I know this forum was for med students only, but my professor is a Doctor and can't explain this)) Please help!
