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