Cell-mediated immunity Flashcards

1
Q

In cell-mediated immunity is when

A
  • An antigen is recognized and bound
  • A small number of T cells proliferate and differentiate into a clone of effector cells
  • The antigen is eliminate

Q

Antibody-mediated immunity is when

A
  • An antigen is recognized and bound
  • Helper T cells costimulate the B cell so the B cell can
    proliferate and differentiate into a clone of effector
    cells that produce antibodies
  • The antigen is eliminated

Q

Naturally acquired active immunity follows exposure to a microbe

A

antigen recognition by B cells and T cells and costimulation lead to formation of antibody-secreting plasmocytes, cytotoxic T cells, and B and T memory cells.

Q

Naturally acquired passive immunity is when

A

IgG antibodies are transferred from mother to fetus
across placenta, or IgA antibodies are transferred
from mother to baby in milk during breast-feeding

Q

Artificially acquired active immunity

A

Antigens introduced during vaccination stimulate
cell-mediated and antibody mediated immune
responses, leading to production of memory cells
