Q

IgM

A

10 antigen binding sites

  • produced early in immune response
  • pentameter shape
  • activates complement cascade most efficiently
  • intravascular cell destruction
  • immediate spin

Q

Phagocytes

A

APC

PMN

17
Q

Lymphocytes

A

T cell

B cell

18
Q

Antigen

A

Any substance ( usually foreign) that combines with an antibody or binds to a T cell

19
Q

Immunogen

A

Antigen in its role of eliciting an immune response

- can have multiple epitope and produce multiple antibodies of varying specificity

20
Q

Allotype

A

Parts of antibody that are common to host

Ex: IgG heavy chain allotrope

21
Q

Isotope

A

IgG class

Heavy chain

22
Q

Idiotype

A

Specific to antigen stimulating the response

Ex: complementary determining regions of antibodies are unique

23
Q

Primary response

A

Lag phase 5-7 days

  • initial exposure to antigen
  • Ab rise,plateau, decline
  • IgM followed by IgG
24
Q

Secondary response

A

Ab production 1-2days
Memory B cells
Ab levels higher and sustained longer
- IgG

25
Q

Prozone

A

Antibody excess

26
Q

Postpone

A

Antigen excess

27
Q

Idiotype

A

Variable region on immunoglobulin

28
Q

Hinge region

A

Imports flexibility to the immunoglobulin

29
Q

Kappa

A

Light chain

30
Q

Haplotypes

A

When two genes are close together on the same chromosome and are inherited genes as in most blood group system

31
Q

Polymorphic

A

Having two or more alleles at a given gene locus

32
Q

Recessive

A

When a gene product is expressed only when it is inherited by both parents
