27
Q

What are 3 functions of antibodies?

A

neutralization
opsonization
complement activation

28
Q

What Igs neutralize?

A

IgA
IgG

29
Q

How do antibodies neutralize?

A

bind to toxin to prevent it from coming in contact with host cells and prevent replication of viruses

30
Q

What antibody method does the flu vaccine use?

A

neutralization

31
Q

Does to bacteria or viruses inhibit their replication?

A

bacteria - no
viruses - yes

32
Q

In opsonization, antibodies bind to the pathogen and phagocytic cells bind to the antibodies _____ region

A

Fc

33
Q

What antibodies complement fix?

A

IgM
IgG

34
Q

Do antibodies have to bind to cell/pathogen to induce complement?

A

no
just makes it easier to activate if it binds

35
Q

What is the end result of complement activation?

A

c1q binds
lysis

36
Q

CD8+ T cells are also known as …

A

cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTL)

37
Q

Do CTL bind directly to pathogen?

A

no, interacts with infected cells

38
Q

Do CD4+ helper T cells bind directly to pathogen?

A

no
secrete cytokines and recruits innate cells when activated by APC

39
