Innate immune defense against intracellular pathogens is mediated by

Answer 3

NK cells. these kill virus infected cells

cytokines called type 1 interferons

Question 4

microbial molecules that stimulate the innate immune system are called

Answer 4

pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs)

Question 5

PAMPs are recognized by

Answer 5

pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)

Question 6

DAMPs

Answer 6

damage-associated molecular patterns

innate immune recognition of molecules released when a cell is damaged
