Q

Question he had on on slide 9… didnt catch it…?

Q

T-cells cannot respond to ____________ antigens.

A

unprocessed

17
Q

Little tiny piece of an antigen, the piece that T-cells look at and respond to. Antigens are covered in these.

A

Epitope

18
Q

A substance that is capable of reacting with a specific antibody but cannot induce the formation of antibodies unless bound to a carrier protein or other molecule.

A

Hapten

19
Q

Antigens are phagocytized and digested in ______________.

A

acidic lysosomes

20
Q

Vessicles containing MHC-II fuse with _________.

A

lysosomes

21
Q

Macrophage antigen processing and presentation…MHC-II

A

Peptide complexes are transported to surface where they interact with and activated CD4 cells that are specific for the peptide.

22
Q

2 signals required to activate immune response

A

T cell receptor binding to MHC

Engagement of co-stimulatory molecules alone= (anergy- nothing will take place, lack of immune response)

23
Q

What happens

A

Antigen presenting cells processes
Comes up and presents via a macrophage
T cells receive a co-stimulatory signal
Co-stimulation with accessory

24
Q

MHC II is being presented by a ____________

A

Macrophage

25
Q

TH1 is ___________ response

A

cell mediated

26
Q

TH2 cells promote ________________ responses

A

antibody- mediated

27
Q

What cells don’t have MHC-I?

A

Red blood cells
