Lymphocyte Development
Across
- 3. what happens to a thymocyte following negative selection
- 4. antibody region that recognizes antigens
- 5. the target of an adaptive immune response
- 6. antibody region that is NOT modified during VDJ recombination
- 12. the development of specific cell types from progenitors
- 14. the set of unique lymphocytes in individuals that recognize distinct antigens
- 17. progenitor cell type that gives rise to T cells, B cells, NK cells
- 18. _______ exclusion prevents more than 1 antigen receptor being expressed on the same cell
- 19. lymphocyte subset that does not express antigen receptors
Down
- 1. site of T cell development
- 2. enzyme that promotes antigen receptor gene rearrangement
- 7. selection process that contributes to self tolerance
- 8. type of antigen recognized by T cells
- 9. molecule expressed on T cells that strengthens interactions with MHC/peptide complexes
- 10. B cell receptor
- 11. lymphocyte that has successfully developed through positive and negative selection
- 13. selection process that ensures a functional antigen receptor is produced
- 15. non-responsiveness to antigens
- 16. B cell receptor isotype
