Test 1 chapter 8 Flashcards
rapid
nonspecific
short-lived
inflammatory response
slower
specific
long-lived memory
adaptive immune response
substances capable pf generating an immune response
“non self”
antigens
associated with the body fluids and due to the production of soluble proteins call antibodies
humoral immunity
associated with the development of “trained” armies of the T lymphocytes
cellular immunity
antibodies circulate in the blood and binds to antigens on infectious agents. this can result in direct or indirect response
humoral immunity
inactivates microorganism
direct response
activates inflammatory mediators that destroy pathogen
indirect
antibodies are responsible for protection against what
many bacteria and viruses
T cell differentiation which lead to direct, indirect or avoid attacking self
cellular immunity
cell mediated immunity protects against what
viruses and cancer
lymphocytes that downgrade the immune response and also provide tolerance to self
T regulatory cells
lymphocytes that are trained killer cells, they destroy host cells infected by bacteria/viruses and cancer cells
Cytotoxic T cells
have perviously encountered and responded to their antigen
memory T cells
react with antibodies/antigen receptors on B and T cells to induce immune response
antigens
Immunogenicity
Foreignness
Molecular size
chemical complexity
sufficient quantity
Most abundant antibody
Can cross capillary walls to enter or exit tissue
Can cross the placenta giving the newborn immediate protection to all the disease and vaccinations the moth has ever had
IgG
made after IgM and IgG against same antigen
found in mucus membranes
IgA
largest and most effective antibody
made first in response to infection
blood types
IgM
mediates parasitic and allergic response
IgE
located on the surface of B lymphocyte memory cells
IgD
antigens require processing and presentation by what
antigen presenting cells APC
APC activates what
T helper cells
For processing and presentation…
Antigen must be appropriate type
Lymphocytes must be prepared to recognize presented antigen
Antigen must be presented appropriately
