Cell associated cytotoxicity occurs in which of the following hypersensitivity reactions?
Type 2
mechanism/s for cell damage in type 2 hypersensitivity
all of the above
classical complement cascade, activation of natural killer cells, opsonization
Incompatible blood transfusion could induce a hemolytic reaction that results in intravascular lysis of the RBC’s, and release of ______ from lysed cells.
Hemoglobulin
Antibodies bind to antigens and cause _____
all of the above
opsonization, agglutination, neutralization
______ regions in both chains of antibody are responsible for fixing compliment.
Constant
Which of the following Immunoglobulin is NOT able to activate the complement system by classic pathway?
IgD
IgDenied
C1 component of complement has a receptor for which of the following fragments of the immunoglobulin?
F-c
which of the following components of the complement primarily undergoes activation in the lectin complement pathway?
C3
T4 helper cells are able to recognize foreign antigens in combination with which of the following classes of the major histocompatibility complex?
class II molecules
a fetus can produce immunoglobulins of which of the following classes?
IgM
this component of complement that is produced during complement activation, is the most important opsonin for activation of phagocytic cells
C3
Which of the following components of complement is called anaphylatoxin?
C5a and C3a
in secondary antibody responses the antibodies of which of the following classes of immunoglobulin is produced most?
IgG
theoretically, type _____ blood can be donated to all persons because it lacks ______
O, antigens
An example of a type I hypersensitivity is ______
atopy
Type II hypersensitivities are due to
activation of cytotoxic T cells
properties of happens include:
reactivity but no immunogenicity
an antigen that occurs in various tissues of same species is referred to as
alloantigen
antigenic site that bind to antibody are called _____
epitopes
small molecules that have antigenic determinant group and are not immunogenic are, ______.
Penicillin and catechol
some bacterial toxins are super-antigens. presence of super antigens in an infection blocks activation of t-cells
false
b- cells have the ability to respond to antigens such as ___________
all of the above
protein, polysaccharide, carbohydrate
this antibody has lowest percent in blood circulation and has harmful effect
IgE
the T helper cells produce ______, that stimulates a general increase in the activity of committed B-cells.
interleukin- 2
