Quiz 4 Immune Response Flashcards
Infection with human immunodeficiency virus causes acquired immune deficiency syndrome because
the virus damages CD4+T cells
The principle role of histocombatibility molecules is
to bind foreign proteins for presentation to appropiate antigen specific T cells
In type I hypersensitivity reactions, the effects seen primarily relate to initial
release of mediators from mast cells
Transcription of HIV proviral DNA in CD4+T cells leads to
Productive infection and cell death
has develoment with energy with age been implemented in auto immune diseases?
no
IgM has the smallest molecular wheight?(T/F)
F, IgG does
IgA is found in mucous secretions (T/F)
T
the third phase in pathogenesis of systemic immune complex disease (type III hypersensistivity) occurs when?
an inflammatory reaction leads to tissue injury
Compared to the primary immune response, the secondary immune response is characterized by?
greater magnitude
the deposition of immune complexes in blood vessels seen in type 3 hypersensitivity reactions leads to?
necrotizing vasculitis
Delayed type hypersensitivity reactions is initiated by?
CD4+T cells
