What are antibodies?
Globular glycoproteins proteins
What are antibodies made of?
Lymphocytes
What do each antigen have?
A specific antibodies
What do the antibodies do?
Label pathogens for phagocytes
It antibodies are proteins. WhatProperties do they have?
3d
Tertiary structure
Sensitive to ph and temperature
Types of lymphocytes (cells)
T lymphocytes
- t helper
- t killer
- T memory
- t regulator
B lymphocytes
- plasma cells
- B effector cells
- B memory
What do plasma cells do?
Make antibodies
What do memory cells do?
Remember the pathogen and has asetoj instructions on how to kill the pathogen
What do t helper cells do?
Bind to antigen and cause the release Of interleukins
What do t killer cells do?
Kill pathogen
What do t memory cells do?
Provide long term immunity - remember pathogen
What do plasmacellsdo?
Produce X release antibodies
1st stage.
Phagocyte or lymphocyte ingest antigens and presents them on surface
2nd stage - one way (phagocyte)
T helper cell and phagocyte attached together through antigen
