Across
- 2. pathogen's ability to cause damage to a host
- 5. the CD4+ subset of T cells that modulate and coordinate an immune response, usually via the secretion of selected cytokines.
- 8. molecules that the immune system recognizes as foreign.
- 10. the engulfment and digestion of foreign cells and particles.
- 13. immune system response that is specific and has a memory
- 14. individuals who are likely to develop a communicable disease after exposure to the infectious agents
- 15. the immunoglobulin that has a primary role in mucosal immunity
Down
- 1. disease resulting from several different conditions that can affect one or more components of the immune system resulting defective development and/or function of T and B cells.
- 3. immune system includes elements that are available quickly and are not specific to the pathogen in question.
- 4. subset of T cells that act as regulator of the immune response. They also play an important role in immunological tolerance.
- 6. fully differentiated B cell that can produce antibodies
- 7. inductive site of mucosal immunity in intestine
- 9. CD8+ subset of T cells that can kill target cells infected by endogenous antigen such as a virus.
- 11. the discrimination between self and non-self and the subsequent protection from non-self
- 12. example of an infectious secondary immune deficiency
