MCB Exam4 Immune cells

Wb cell's function is phagocytosis

Wb cell's function is production of histamine

Wb cell's function is production of toxic proteins agianst certain parasites; some phagocytosis

Wb cell's function is initiation of adaptive immune responses

Wb cell's function is initiation of adaptive immune responses

Wb cell's function is phagocytosis when they mature into macrophages

Wb cell's function is to target cells by cytolysis and apoptosis

3 Types of Lymphocytes

Wb cell's function is cell-mediated immunity

Wb cell's function is to produce plasma cells which produce antibodies

Process in which perforin proteins insert themselves into the plasma membrane of target cells, creating channels in mem that allow extracellular fluid to flow in, causing cell to burst

The maturation and proliferation of _________ (along with _____) is one factor that causes swelling of lymph nodes during infection.

Wb cells which also dispose of worn out blood cells

Wb cells found in blood, spleen, lymph nodes, red bone marrow

The binding of _______ to target cell, such as infected human cell, causes release of toxic granules, some of which contain perforin.

Wb cells (2) in tonsils, spleen, thymus, red bone marrow, appendix, Peyer's patches of small intestine, & lymph nodes of resp, GI, and repro tracts; also circulate in blood

Wb cells which recognize antigens and make antibodies against them

Wb cells which have surface immunoglobulins which coat surface with receptors to specific antigens

Wb cells which do not have surface immunoglobulins, but mature under the influence of the thymus

Wb cells which respond to antigens by receptors on their surface; contact w/antigen causes proliferation and secretion of cytokines

Chemical messengers that give instructions to other cells to perform certain functions

Globulin proteins are relatively _______ (soluble or insoluble)

Wb cells which are highly phagocytic & motile, active in initial stages of infection (engulf & destroy bacteria)

4 types of granulocytes

2 types of agranulocytes
