lecture 14 Flashcards
innat immunity
first line of defense rapid response to infection
adaptive immunity
antigen specific and takes a longer time to fight against pathogen
what are immune cells derived from
from hematopoietic stem cells
HSC’S branch into which classification?
lymphoid and myeloid progenitors
t cells derive from
hsc’s in bone marrow and mature in the thymus.
apc
antigen presenting cell
t cells have..
receptors that are activated by antigen presenting cells.
MHC
major histocompatibility complex proteins that are on the surface of APCS
class 1 mhc
intracellular peptides
class 2 mhc
molecules which present extracellular peptides
t/f the mhc protein displays fragments of antigens when a cells is infected with a pathogen
true
true or false t cells are activated when they encounter apc that have antigens on its mhc molecules.
true
cytotoxic t cells
involved in cell destruction
memory cells
tcells and b cells
clonal deletion
removal of b and t cells that have receptors of self that prevent recognition of self host cells
