Description

so i've gotten into that whole osmosis jones thing. i thought as everyone else is doing viruses i might as well do one for every type of white blood cell. it has now been colouered by the wonderous wizard tate :iconmistresstate:. shes great.
---------------------------------------------------

here is some sort of character synopsis:

Killer T lymphocyte

Biology: a white blood cell that serves a simple, effective but potentially dangerous job. A killer T lymphocyte destroys anything it doesn’t recognise with a blast of powerful acid. This is normally very helpful in destroying pathogens but if you get a blood transfusion or any kind of transplant these cells will do there best to eliminate it as they think it is an invader.

Character: as a character these cells would be rather unintelligent but very good at following orders to the letter. As they can’t think outside the box or adapt in anyway they will not be tricked by some new virus or bacterium and will blast it away with their acidic rocket launcher. They would not be very friendly or chatty and will beat you senseless if they don’t think your good fro the body you reside in.

Helper T lymphocyte

Biology: as its name suggests it helps other B lymphocyte perform their task. If it should encounter a pathogen it will release several types of hormone. One to alert any white blood cells of the pathogens appearance, one to help seed up the process of making memory B lymphocytes divide into antibody producing B lymphocytes and one to slow down the growth of an bacterium pathogen. They don’t destroy the pathogen itself but they help out a lot.

Character: as the picture suggest I think of helper T lymphocytes as medics. Healing injured cells as well as administering hormones such as adrenaline to increase other white blood cell capabilities to hunt down and destroy viruses.

Memory B lymphocyte

Biology: memory B lymphocytes are covered in antigen censors that allow it know if any harmful substances are in the body. If a censor detects anything the cell will divide into another memory cell and an antibody producing B lymphocyte which will then keep dividing until there are enough to fend off the harmful substance. The memory cells live longer that the other B lymphocytes so hang around longer to spawn more and hold the genetic coding to make more.

Character: as you can see I’ve made them techi’s and surveillance dew to there antigen censors. They would be young, jokative but first to pessimism. They would be the ones to alert the white blood cells of antigens (as apposed to helper T lymphocytes).

Antibody producing B lymphocyte

Biology: a cell that is born to fight off a particular antigen. Each one with a simple RNA code for building a specific antibody protein to fight a particular pathogen. Each one can use its antibodies in a variety of ways e.g. grabbing onto bacterium flagellum preventing them from swimming away, holding them down as a phagocyte engulf them, covering it so it can’t touch or infect anything, breaking weak protein structures to snap them, filling in active sites so they are useless and so on.

Character: this is Osmosis Jones. Need I say more?

Phagocyte

Biology: a primitive but effective white blood cell. As the name suggests it performs phagocytosis on pathogens. This means it absorbs the substance by putting it in a bubble inside it. Then in mixes it with a lisosome bubble that’s full of acid that will eat away at the substance until it’s gone. Its triple nucleus prevents a virus invading one and taking control.

Character: unlike other white blood cells, phagocytes are raw brutish cells that hunt down viruses and bacterium to eat. They are very powerful but not at all intelligent and lack the ability to surprise its prey. As dangerous as they are, it’s a good thing they work to the benefit of the bodies immunity.

well that was it. i hope i don't get sued or booed. i pray i can get it coloured soon. because as it is its crap.

osmosis jones is (c) to warner brothers
the team is (c) in design to me and to existence to human evolution.

If Osmosis jones was a B lymphocyte, he wouldn't even have bothered fighting Trax by himself. He would have ordered someone else to go, without leaving the Ganglia Headquarters, like his boss.
Also, the fact he owns a car, can modify his body and directly fight the host enemies indicates he is either a monocyte or a neutrophil.
