What is the role of mast cells in inflammatory response?
  • Plasma cells develop from B cells that have been stimulated by the interleukin-2 secreted by helper T cells.
  • Mast cells release chemicals that dilate nearby capillaries, increasing their permeability and allowing blood components to enter the region from the bloodstream, thus causing localized swelling.
  • Innate immunity and acquired immunity are both characteristics of all vertebrate animals. Only vertebrate animals have fully developed acquired immunity to supplement their innate immunity.
  • Helper T cells. Specific helper T cells recognize specific antigen-class II MHC complexes. The result of this is an activated helper T cell that stimulates both humoral and cell-mediated immune responses.
Clostridium difficile typically infects which organ system?
  • Clostridium difficile typically infects the digestive system.
  • Cell-mediated immunity differs from humoral immunity in that they respond differently to invaders. Humoral immunity is a function of B cells and antibody production, whereas cell-mediated immunity is a function of the activation of cytotoxic T cells.
  • Plasma cells develop from B cells that have been stimulated by the interleukin-2 secreted by helper T cells.
  • Innate immunity and acquired immunity are both characteristics of all vertebrate animals. Only vertebrate animals have fully developed acquired immunity to supplement their innate immunity.
How do cells involved in the innate immune response detect the presence of pathogens?
  • Helper T cells. Specific helper T cells recognize specific antigen-class II MHC complexes. The result of this is an activated helper T cell that stimulates both humoral and cell-mediated immune responses.
  • Lactobacillus johnsonii. Lactobacillus johnsonii is a probiotic that produces enzymes that digest milk which are found in the gut and the vagina. During natural birth the baby would normally be coated in them.
  • Pattern-recognition receptors on leukocytes recognize and bind to unique molecules on the pathogens, such as the amino acid N-formylmethionine in bacteria. This receptor binding leads to activation of the innate immune response.
  • The role of cytotoxic T cells is the secretion of perforin, which plays a role in the cell-mediated immune response. Perforin causes the lysis of pathogen-infected body cells; it is a component of the cell-mediated immune response.
The leukocytes of the innate immune system are?
  • Helper T cells are part of cell-mediated immune responses. Cell-mediated immunity depends on the activation of T lymphocytes.
  • The leukocytes of the innate immune system are mast cells, macrophages, and neutrophils.
  • The first response to broken skin is the release of clotting proteins from platelets in the bloodstream, which decreases bleeding and helps to seal the wound.
  • The role of active cytotoxic T cells is to attack body cells that have been infected. Nonspecific defense includes natural killer cells that destroy virus-infected body cells, and abnormal cells that could form tumors. Cytotoxic (killer) T lymphocytes kill cancer cells and cells infected by viruses or other intracellular pathogens.

Tissues are immunogically "typed" before an organ transplant to make sure that the donor and recipient match as closely as possible in their _____.
  • Mast cells release chemicals that dilate nearby capillaries, increasing their permeability and allowing blood components to enter the region from the bloodstream, thus causing localized swelling.
  • Clonal selection is the division of B cells that have been stimulated by binding to an antigen, which results in the production of cloned plasma cells and memory cells.
  • Tissues are immunogically "typed" before an organ transplant to make sure that the donor and recipient match as closely as possible in their MHC (major histocompatibility complex) proteins.
  • The role of cytotoxic T cells is the secretion of perforin, which plays a role in the cell-mediated immune response. Perforin causes the lysis of pathogen-infected body cells; it is a component of the cell-mediated immune response.
Innate immunity and acquired immunity are both _____.
  • An antigen is a foreign molecule that evokes a specific response by a lymphocyte. Antigen molecules can be a part of any type of organism. Antigen molecules could also be a part of a product of an organism such as pollen or feces.
  • Mast cells release chemicals that dilate nearby capillaries, increasing their permeability and allowing blood components to enter the region from the bloodstream, thus causing localized swelling.

  • The fact that there are about a million different antigen receptors possible in human B cells is based on recombination of the segments of the receptor DNA that make up the functional receptor genes of differentiated B cells.
Cell-mediated immunity differs from humoral immunity in that _____.
  • Extracellular pathogens such as viruses and bacteria in body fluids are attacked by antibodies from plasma cells. Antibodies are part of the "humoral" immune responses. Circulating antibodies encounter microorganisms in body fluids and complex with them to "mark" them for further counterattack.
  • Cell-mediated immunity differs from humoral immunity in that they respond differently to invaders. Humoral immunity is a function of B cells and antibody production, whereas cell-mediated immunity is a function of the activation of cytotoxic T cells.
