Q

Classical complement pathway activated by ___. How does it work?

A

Ab-antigen complexes. It works by. C1q binds to Fc portion of the IgM and IgG (not IgG4). Activates C1r/c1s. C1s cleaves C4 and C2 forming C4b/C2a (C3 convertase). C3 convertase cleaves C3 into C3a and C3b. C3b joins wiht C4b2b to form C5 convertase

Q

LFA1 on what cell?

A

On T cell. Lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) is an integrin found on lymphocytes and other leukocytes.[1] LFA-1 plays a key role in emigration, which is the process by which leukocytes leave the bloodstream to enter the tissues. LFA-1 also mediates firm arrest of leukocytes.[2] Additionally, LFA-1 is involved in the process of cytotoxic T cell mediated killing as well as antibody mediated killing by granulocytes and monocytes
