adaptive immune response Flashcards
functions and properties of helper T cells
involved in the cell-mediated immune response
recognises antigens presented by MHC class II molecules
expresses CD4
also expresses CD3, TCR, C28
major source of IL-2
mediates acute and chronic organ rejection
functions and properties of cytotoxic T cells
involved in the cell-mediated immune response
recognises antigens presented by MHC class I molecules
induce apoptosis in virally infected and tumour cells
expresses CD8
also expresses CD3, TCR
mediates acute and chronic organ rejection
functions and properties of B cells
major cell of the humoral immune response
acts as an antigen presenting cell
mediates hyperacute organ rejection
functions and properties of plasma cells
differentiated from B cells
produces large amounts of antibody specific to a particular antigen
