Across
  1. 4. Cells that engulf and present pieces of other molecules on their surface
  2. 6. Disease causing agent
  3. 8. Inflammatory response that slows the growth of pathogen by denaturing proteins via change of set point
  4. 10. Swelling and redness in response to tissue damage
  5. 12. General type of defense using T-Cells
  6. 16. Kill viral infected cells non-specifically in the Innate system
  7. 17. T-Cell that kills antibody/antigen bound cells
  8. 18. Cascade of proteins in innate immune system that helps eliminate a pathogen
  9. 20. The name of the process for an antigen finding the right B and T cell
  10. 21. Protein specific to Helper T Cell
  11. 22. Proteins that help activate B and T cells
  12. 23. General defense that uses antibodies
  13. 24. Tissue cells that consume foreign, dead, and damaged molecules or cells
  14. 27. Like macrophages, but in the blood
  15. 28. Cell that engulfs and destroys invading microbes
Down
  1. 1. Protein that punches holes in viral infected cells
  2. 2. Dead or weakened organism that induces immunity without causing disease
  3. 3. T cell that stimulates the production of cytokines and interacts directly with antigens
  4. 5. Invasion of any organism by pathogen
  5. 7. Any foreign material that causes an immune response
  6. 9. Protein that binds to antigen
  7. 11. Immune cell found in tissues but not blood
  8. 13. Cell that develops in thymus and recognizes antigen/antibody bound cells
  9. 14. Cells that produce antibodies – general name
  10. 15. Part of the adaptive immune system that involved antibody production
  11. 19. When WBCs squeeze through capillary walls
  12. 20. Protein linking MHCII molecules to TCR on T helper cells causing cytokines to be released indefinitely
  13. 25. When a molecule or cell is coated with proteins to make phagocytosis easier
  14. 26. Protein that usually displays a self-molecule, found on all nucleated cells
