Many cells in the human body have proteins on the surface that are able to interact with the receptors of helper T cells. Explain the mechanisms and why it is that such an interaction or signal does not usually result in an autoimmune reaction?
Immature B-cells express only IgM on its membrane, and if it encounters antigen the IgM will be stripped off and the cell will stimulated to undergo apoptosis. A mature B-cell expresses IgM and IgD on its membrane. What mechanism allows these cells to express and secrete IgE antibodies in type I hypersensitivity reactions? Explain this mechanism.
