Human immune system     a) Pathogen-associated molecular patterns are conserved molecular structures produced by microorganisms, but not by host cells.   b) A virus-infected host cell that displays a viral antigen via MHC class I molecules may become a target of cytotoxic T cells.   c) Secreted MHC Class I proteins present in blood plasma can function as opsonins.   d) Both (a) and (b) are correct and (c) is incorrect   e) Statements (a), (b) and (c) are all correct
The emphasis in innate immunity is that it is non-specific. Explain how two different factors/parts of the human innate immune system are not specific to a particular pathogen.”                 “2. Antibodies are a crucial part of adaptive immunity. Discuss the structure of an antibody and how the adaptive immune system is capable of producing different antibodies for a wide variety of antigens.”                   “3. The innate and adaptive immune systems typically communicate with each other. Which system acts first and then communicates with the other? Why would this be advantageous?
1. (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) (h) Provide the word that best fits the definition for each part below. A protein on the surface of macrophages and other immune cells that recognizes and binds the constant regions of antibodies in antibody-antigen complexes. The portion of an antigen that is recognized by a particular antibody. An antibody that is produced by a hybridoma, a hybrid between a normal B cell and a B cell tumor. A pharmaceutical product that is produced from living organisms or contains components of living organisms. Description of a monoclonal antibody that has been engineered to have the original murine variable regions of the heavy and light chains coupled with human constant regions of the heavy and light chains. A generic form of a biologic drug. It is not identical in structure but identical in function, side effects, and toxicity. A new cancer therapy in which the tail end of an anti-cancer antibody is replaced by a T cell. Binding of the antibody to the tumor can…
