Across
- 2. Substance administered with an immunogen that enhances immune response
- 7. Alternate form of a gene that codes for a slightly different form of the same product
- 8. Condition of being resistant to infection
- 9. bone marrow and thymus, where lymphocytes mature
- 11. Macromolecule that stimulates production of antibodies or sensitized lymphocytes
- 12. Set of genes located close together on a chromosome, usually inherited as a single unit
- 16. Process of producing nonpathogenic bacteria or viruses for use in vaccines
- 17. Immunoglobins, a glycoprotein produced by B and plasma cells due to foreign exposure
- 19. engulfment of cells or particulate matter by WBCs
- 20. Ability of an immunogen to stimulate a host response
- 22. Host’s antigen and is incapable of stimulating an immune response under normal conditions
- 23. protection from disease caused by antibodies in serum
Down
- 1. type of resistance to infection by antigen specificity due to prior exposure
- 3. Antigen found in another member of host’s species that elicits an immune response
- 4. Protein coded for by the MHC genes that plays an essential role in the immune response and rejection of foreign transplants
- 5. Portion of the immunogen against which the immune response is directed
- 6. Process by which degraded peptides within cells are transported to the plasma membrane with MHC molecules so that T cells can recognize them
- 10. Substance capable of inducing an immune response
- 13. organs where main contact with foreign antigens take place (ex: lymph nodes)
- 14. Antigen in different species but is identical or similar it causes cross-reactivity
- 15. Proteins coded for by genes at loci A, B, C in the MHC and Expressed on all nucleated cells
- 18. Proteins coded for by genes at loci DR, DP and DQ in the MHC and Found on B cells, macrophages, activated T cells, monocytes, dendritic cells & endothelium
- 21. ability of individual to resist infection naturally
