Across
- 2. molecule that can help deactivate T cells
- 4. ligand for PD-1
- 5. these T cells express both CD4 and CD8
- 6. CTLA-4 and PD-1 function as this type of protein that decommissions T cells
- 8. Do you have receptors that recognize one of the self MHC molecules which I am expressing on my surface?
- 11. cell that is characteristically star shaped
- 12. protein that's prominently displayed on the surface of CTLs
- 14. another level of protection against autoimmunity
- 16. a way of eliminating obsolete T cells after they have been re-stimulated many times
- 18. transcription factor that drives expression of many tissue specific antigens
- 20. Do you recognize any of the self peptides displayed by the MHC molecules on my surface?
- 21. binding partner for Fas ligand
- 23. T cells that help protect us from autoimmunne disease; subset of CD4 T cells selected to become these cells
- 25. Cell that asks T cells questions
- 27. T cells learn tolerance of self in the thymus
Down
- 1. these proteins give each organ or tissue type its identity
- 3. Cell that tests T cells for tolerance of self
- 7. a "neutered" T cell
- 9. Cells that stop displaying either CD4 or CD8
- 10. T cell that dampens the immune response
- 13. the outer region of the thymus
- 15. at least 25% of all B cells in mice take advantage of this "second chance"
- 17. self eating
- 19. NK cells destroy cells that don't display class I MHC molecules on their surface
- 22. central region of the thymus
- 24. B7 molecules plug into these receptor proteins on T cells
- 26. gene that conferrs nTreg cells their properties
