Across
- 7. positive selection; the process by which T cells are tested for recognition of self MHC molecules
- 9. enzyme released by CTLs that triggers apoptosis chain reaction inside cell
- 10. T cell activated by TGF-beta to produce TGF-beta and IL-10 to restrain the immune response
- 11. APC that travels to the lymph nodes to present antigens to naive T cells
- 12. when rearranged genes of the BCR can mutate to increase its affinity for its cognate antigen
- 13. this type of B cell activation requires crosslinking and co-stimulation from a foreign danger signal
- 15. cells in lymphoid follicles that display opsonized antigens to B cells
- 16. combination of gene segments that will produce a full-length Hc protein for BCR
- 21. special region in a small blood vessel where B and T cells can enter secondary lymphoid organs
- 24. the protein that removes CLIP and competes for binding on the MHC II molecule
- 25. the antibody that binds to mast cells to induce anaphylactic shock
- 26. cell that is activated by IL-12 and secretes TNF, IFN-gamma, and IL-2 for viral and bacterial attacks
- 28. only dendritic cells, B cells, and macrophages express this molecule, which binds CD4 and presents exogenous peptides
- 30. T cell protein that binds with B7 on an APC for co-stimulation
- 31. region of an antigen that is recognized by a BCR or TCR
- 33. proteins on the surface of NK cells that recognize "kill" or distress signals
- 34. cavity lined with macrophages that lymph first enters when it enters the lymph node
Down
- 1. protein that blocks the binding groove of MHC II molecules to prevent endogenous binding
- 2. protein released by CTLs to attack cell membrane for apoptosis
- 3. proteins on the surface of NK cells that recognize "don't kill" signals
- 4. cytoplasmic complex that cuts proteins into peptides
- 5. almost every cell expresses this molecule, which binds CD8 and presents endogenous peptides
- 6. when a cell is rendered non-functional after recognizing its cognate antigen but not receiving co-stimulation
- 8. the process by which T cells are tested for recognition of displayed self peptides
- 14. this type of B cell activation requires crosslinking and co-stimulation from a helper T cell
- 17. T cells that bind with self-antigens and suppress the activation of self-reactive T cells
- 18. where B and T cells are generated and B cells mature
- 19. cell that is activated by IL-4 to produce IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 to defend against parasites or bacteria in the digestive tract
- 20. MALTs in the small intestines that utilize M cells
- 22. the main type of antibody B cells produced when first activated
- 23. cell that is activated by TGF-beta, IL-6, and IL-23 to produce IL-17, IL-21, and IL-23 to defend against fungi and extracellular bacteria
- 27. where T cells mature and receive self-tolerance training
- 28. the CD4 and CD8 molecules on T cells that help focus the cell's attention on othe proper MHC molecule
- 29. the main antibody that guards mucosal surfaces
- 32. when BCRs are clustered together they are:
