bring proteins of antigens out to where T-cells can bind to them
161
MHC-I
catches virus-infected, cancerous, or transplant cells
activating CD8
is on all nucleated cells, will bring a sample of protein from the cytoplasm to T-cell
if bound to CD8 on Tc it will activate. use mitosis for an effector and memory cell response
Effector: kill cells with the same antigen

if the CD4 alpha-beta receptors on helper T-H cells match antigen on APCs then are activated
through mitosis gives effector and memory
effector T-H cells cytokines activate other lymphocytes & phagocytes
memory T-H cells held in reserve for fast secondary response
