iL5, IL4, 6,10,13 all promote blank synthesis

A

igA

19

b cell homing is independent of blank and appears to be blank

A

antigen, random

24
Q

secretory antibodies limit blank of protein antigens via mucosal membranes

A

absorption

25
Q

T cells presented with Ag peptides in the absence of co-stimulatory signals become refractory to further stimulation with Ag

A

anergy

26
Q

these cells actively suppress Ag-specific responses following re-challenge with Ag

Q

polio vaccine protects by blank at mucosa surfaces

A

sIgA

28
Q

mucosal vaccines prevent blank

A

entry of the pathogen

29
Q

difference between other immune responses and mucosal immunity is that the system gears itself into channeling a blank response

A

igA

30
Q

IgA is so important to the mucosa because it

A

prevents entry of pathogens

31
Q

helper t cells push igA response and downregulate these

A

igM, igG
