Concept explainers
To discuss:
Antigen recognition, costimulation, and clonal selection of a T cell; differentiation of selected T cells into effector cells and memory cells.
Introduction:
For all living organisms, there is a challenge for surviving by defeating the entire pathogenic organism. The human body kills the pathogen or eliminates the foreign particles by an organized system called the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system or immune system consists of a group of cells or immune cells, which inhabit all the organs of the body. The lymphatic system includes lymphatic organs and a group of lymphatic tissues that are involved in the immune system.

- The Adaptive Immune Response Is a Specific Defense Against Infection Identify the components of cellular immunity, and define their roles in the immune response.arrow_forwardMatch the immunity concepts: __________ inflammation __________ antibody secretion __________ phagocyte __________ immunological memory __________ vaccination __________ allergy a. neutrophil b. plasma cell c. nonspecific response d. purposely causing memory cell production e. basis of secondary immune response f. nonprotective immune responsearrow_forwardDescribes the relationship of the following terms using short terms: Adhesion Molecule(s)Anergic T cellAntigen PresentationAntigen Processingarrow_forward
- to contrast the difference between the adaptive and innate immune system. What cells are involved, which one is most specific and which one is responsible for long lasting immunity. Try to include as much detail as possible when contrasting these two arms of the immune system. Require 150 wordarrow_forwardFood-derived retinoic acid and commensal bacteria stimulate all three populations of innate lymphoid ells(ILC, ILC2, ILC3) to cause T cell inactivation (anergy) and regulatory T cell (Treg) formation. True Falsearrow_forwardTrue/False: B-cell receptors and T-cell receptors share a mechanism for generating diversity, and also share overall structural homology both in their V domains and their C domains. This is because the two proteins have nearly identical functions in the immune responses mediated by their respective cell types.arrow_forward
- describe the process of antigen presentation and T cellactivation;arrow_forwardWhether the statement "To guarantee that the antigen-presenting cells in the thymus will display a complete repertoire of self peptides to allow elimination of self-reactive T cells, the thymus recruits dendritic cells from all over the body" is true or false.arrow_forwardAll of the following are true of the lymphatic system, EXCEPT: Lymphatic capillaries lie in close physical proximity to arterial and venous capillaries None of the other four answers (all are true of the lymphatic system) Lymph nodes are located at lymphatic vessel junctions It brings microbial antigens into contact with immunologically active cells (lymphocytes and macrophages) Its only important function is to carry interstitial fluid back to the circulatory systemarrow_forward
- True/False: Dendritic cells are tissue resident myeloid cells that are highly phagocytic, like macrophages. However, dendritic cells do not play a major role in large-scale pathogen destruction; instead, they are important in initiating adaptive immune responses of T cells.arrow_forwardPhagocytes bind to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) via: I selected opsonins, which is incorrect. Please help.arrow_forwardAll T cell types share the presence of: Select one: CD8 CD25 CD4 CD3arrow_forward
