Across
  1. 3. part of chain where variable differs greatly and gives antigen binding specificity.
  2. 5. cytotoxic T cells recognize antigen presented via MHC I and directly destroys cells via enzymes.
  3. 8. stimulates a primary response AND a memory response and primes the immune system for future pathogen exposure; i.e. vaccinations.
  4. 9. substances that can elicit a response from a B or T cell.
  5. 10. small accessible part of an antigen that binds to an antigen receptor
  6. 11. treating a patient with antibodies for immediate effect but is temporary and has no memory induction.
  7. 13. vertebrates; involves a very specific response to a pathogen and is slower to develop.
  8. 15. antibodies of B cells, not cells themselves, defend against pathogens by binding to them and marking them for elimination.
  9. 16. abbreviation, T cells have T cell receptors.
Down
  1. 1. regulatory T cells recognize antigen presented by MHC II or I, expresses CD4 or 8 and modulates the immune response.
  2. 2. any immunity obtained by inoculation with selected antigens/parts of a microbe, or in some cases, the entire microbe.
  3. 4. recognize antigen presented by MHC II, expresses CD4, the conductors of the immune system.
  4. 6. part of chain that remains relatively the same.
  5. 7. before B or T cells are bound to an antigen they are considered this
  6. 12. abbreviation, B cells have antibody receptors.
  7. 14. abbreviation for Major Histocompatibility Complex and is the antigen presentation necessary for T cells to participate in adaptive immune response.
