Immune system
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.
The Immune system is the bodily system that fights against potentially pathogenic organisms or substances.
The Human immune system can't fight silicon. (ENT: "Observer Effect")
In the 2350s and 2360s, a research project at the Darwin Genetic Research Station developed Human children who had an aggressive immune system, capable of attacking disease organisms before they entered a Human body. (TNG: "Unnatural Selection")
Species 8472 have an immune system that can fend off Borg nanoprobes, thanks mostly to the dense DNA of their cells. (VOY: "Scorpion", "Scorpion, Part II")
