The Immune System
Across
- 2. artificially produced and antibody that recognises one epitope
- 8. produced by the immune system in response to infection and destroy microbes
- 9. trigger immune response by binding to white blood cells or antibodies
- 10. consists of water, viral proteins and other substances
- 11. produce class II MHC proteins
- 12. gland that trains white blood cells
- 14. protects the rotects body from pathogens in extracellular fluids
- 15. signalling molecule that directs immune cells to fight infection and influences cell differentiation
Down
- 1. white blood cells that are apart of the immune system
- 3. substance that causes damage or death to cells
- 4. acts immediately or within hours of pathogen's appearance in body and are non specific and target any pathogen
- 5. mixture of antibodies that bind to multiple epitopes of an antigen
- 6. proteins produced by lymphophytes as a result of antigen interaction
- 7. slower immune response but targets the pathogen more specifically
- 13. smallest infectious agent that can multiply only in living cells
