- Explain how dendritic cells or B cells can express six different versions of MHC1 and six to eight versions of MHC2. What is the evolutionary benefit of MHC being highly polymorphic and polygenic? thank you!arrow_forwardFrom: "Towards a universal flu vaccine" Each year, the flu vaccine includes antigens from two strains of Influenza A and two strains of Influenza B. These antigens are from the head of the H spikes an area that sticks out from the virus and so, is very easy for human immune cells to detect. However, the problem with using the head of the H spike as an antigen is... O The H spike head mutates very rapidly, so quickly changes to forms not recognized by human immune cells. O The H spike head is exposed on the surface of the virus for only a short period of time. Viruses quickly pull the H spikes back inside the virus, shiclding them from human immune cells. O The H spike head is often too big for the human immune cells to attack. O The H spike head is often too small for the human immune cells to bind to.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statement regarding the whole-pathogen vaccine is/are correct (B) Live attenuated whole-pathogen vaccines are more effective to elicit a robust immune response, and often a single dose is sufficient. A and B are correct (A) Inactivated whole-pathogen vaccines are usually less immunogenic and often require booster doses/s A and C are correct (C) Inactivated whole-pathogen vaccines never cause disease but live attenuated vaccines always cause a mild disease.arrow_forward
- From: "Towards a universal flu vaccine" Researchers are trying to create a universal influenza vaccine - one that can confer %3D immunity to all, or nearly all, strains of influenza virus. The universal vaccine will target a stable antigen that is present on all influenza viruses that does not readily mutate to different forms. The target researchers are focusing on as a universal stable antigen is on the... The H spike head.

Do you think the enhanced response to other infections, as described, is due to innate responses to the vaccine or adaptive responses? Explain your answer.arrow_forward

(i) Explain the differences seen in the graph between the numbers of T4 cells and HIV particles over the 10-year period. (ii)Suggest why suffers with AIDS may contract Tuberculosis (TB), even though they have been vaccinated against it.arrow_forwardhello!

- Look again at Fig. 43.12. Imagine that a different novel antigen is added on day 40 rather than a second injection of the same antigen. Would you predict that there would be a primary or a secondary response to this second antigen?arrow_forwardSuppose you are designing a study to determine whether a vaccine is effective. You recruit volunteers and then assign them into two groups. Which of the following is a better way to determine if the vaccine works in a wide variety of people? (a) Recruit people from a variety of backgrounds: different ethnicities, ages, sexes, etc... and then randomly form two groups. (b) Recruit people for the study who are very similar to one another, such as married nonsmoker female nurses in their forties who don't drink with no health problems and good incomes, then randomly form two groupsarrow_forwardpicture 1 shows the directed migration of two immune cell types, neutrophils (red) and macrophages (green) to a laser-induced injury in the ear of a mouse. As you can observe from the video, there are three stages to this process: 1) an initial phase characterized by fast recruitment of neutrophils (red) to the site of injury followed by 2) the slower recruitment of macrophages after which 3) the interaction between both cell types is stabilized. Recruitment to the injury site is mediated by leukotriene B4 (LTB4), a potent immune signaling molecule (Figure 1A). LTB4 binds to BLT1, a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR), activating various signaling pathways and resulting in immune cell migration to the site of injury (Figure 1B). With this background information and your knowledge of cell and molecular biology, describe in detail in your own words, as many molecular processes as you can identify that must take place for the cell migration process depicted in the video to be achieved.
