Across
- 5. / antibodies act as opsonins to increase phagocytosis
- 8. /the generic term for serum because it contains antibodies ( Ab).
- 9. antibodies /Involved in allergic reactions and the lysis of parasitic worms
- 11. killing / facilitate destruction by eosinophils and or NK cells
- 12. antibodies / Crosses placenta; protects fetus and newborn.
- 15. / glycoproteins made by B cells that recognize antigens
- 16. antibodies / On B cells, initiate immune response with their B cells
- 18. / linking together antigens to make larger, increasing phagocytosis
- 19. / not making self-reactive antibodies or self-reactive TCRs
Down
- 1. fixation/ antibodies activate MAC lysis by complement
- 2. deletion / The process of destroying B and T cells that react to self antigens
- 3. disease / Occur when T and/or B cells are activated to produce immune reactions against self-proteins
- 4. antibodies / first Ab produced in response to infection (primary response)
- 6. / the study of reactions between antibodies and antigens.
- 7. / binding to toxins or viruses or bacterial cells to prevent their binding their host cell targets
- 10. / Involves TH cells (TH2 ), B cells (plasma cells), antibodies.Produces antibodies to destroy invaders.
- 13. globulin/ Serum fraction containing Ab. Can be given to a person as a treatment against a specific antigen
- 14. / a molecule that is recognized as non-self by the immune system.
- 17. antibodies / Likely to be the first type of antibody an invading microbe would encounter because it is present in mucous membranes (secreted).
- 20. mediated / Involves TH cells (TH1), TC cells, phagocytes. Destroys infected host cells.
