Basic Immunology
Across
- 6. Cells that have not yet encountered their specific antigens.
- 8. It is an automatic response to cell injury that eliminates harmful agents & removes dead tissues.
- 10. Proteins produced by pathogens but not processed by antigen presenting cells.
- 14. Proteins produce by the immune system in response to the presence of a foreign substance.
- 16. The actual part of an antigen that interacts with the immune cell to stimulate the immune response and antibody production.
- 18. What is LFA-1?
- 19. Antibody crosses the placenta.
- 20. Response is mostly IgG.
Down
- 1. Secreted early in the immune response.
- 2. A molecule is to induce the movement of leukocytes up a concentration gradient and toward the chemokine source.
- 3. Binding of peptide by MHC molecule and displaying the complex on the cell surface.
- 4. A specific type of antigen that is able to induce adaptive immune response if injected on its own.
- 5. A molecule is expressed IgM and IgD on its surface.
- 7. Is where phagocytic cells surround and ingest foreign materials.
- 9. The region at which arms of the antibody (ab) molecule forms a Y.
- 11. Mediated by antibodies, which are produced by cells called B lymphocytes.
- 12. Cells involved in killing of antibody-coated parasites.
- 13. Antiviral Defense
- 15. Proteins are sequentially activated in a cascade.
- 17. Term given when 2 cytokines combine and give greater effects.
