summer, highest in evening
immunotherapy changes
As the shift occurs from TH2 to TH1, IFN-γ goes up and IL-4 goes down, resulting in an increase in the ratio
FENO level caffeine

three major criteria of mAPI
asthma, personal atopic dermatitis and sensitization to aeroallergens; Elevated eosinophils and wheezing apart from colds are minor criteria in the mAPI

change in constant region
activation of AID, occurs in B cell follicle
somatic hypermutation
gM+, CD20+, CD27+, CD38+ and CD43+ cells
B1 B cells,seeded from the bone marrow during fetal development and self-renew from these peripheral cells for the rest of the individual’s life, do not require T cell help, bind antimicrobial carbohydrate antigens
UNG
hyper IgM with no recurrent infections
SH3 binds
proline residues
Most TLR activation results in .
NFkB activation
All TLRs utilize IRAK4/MyD88 to signal except
TLR3
TCR diversity
N additions placed by TdT ; shuffling of different V segments, D segments and J segments.
TLR activation results in processing of pro-IL-1beta to
