MHC _____ presents endogenously synthesized antigens to CD8+ cytotoxic T cells
#2
_____ Lymphoid Cell Function
B & T cells - Found in bloodstream, lymph nodes, spleen, submucosa, and epithelia
B cells: contain markers CD19, CD20, CD21 - Mature into plasma cells - Function is to produce antibodies
TH cells: contain markers CD3 and CD4 - Function is to regulate immune responses
Cytotoxic T cells: contain markers CD3 and CD8 - Function is to kill infected cells
NK cells - Contain markers CD16 and CD56 - Function is to kill tumor/virus cell targets or antibody-coated target cells
- T cells can only bind peptides that have been processed and presented by major histocompatibility complexes (MHCs)
#3
CD79a and CD79b are present on _____ cells essential for signal transduction through the antigen receptor.
#4
MHC _____ presents exogenously synthesized antigens to CD4+ helper T cells
#5
The antigen receptors of T lymphocytes have one _____ and beta chain (monovalent)
#6
father of immunology is
#7
_____ cells are induced to kill cells that have an absence of MHC I on their cell surface
#8
Type I interferons (IFN-/IFN-B) work by _____ cells to the products of viral replication
#9
The enzymes responsible for gene recombination in heavy and light chains are encoded by the genes _____ and RAG2
#10
IFN-Y is primarily produced by _____ cells and primarily activates Macrophages and NK cells, along with CD8 CTLs
