Homework Answers
1. The natural killer cells are a kind of lymphocyte and a component of innate immune system.
It plays an important function in the host rejection of tumour cells and cells infected with virus. It contains proteins known as perforins and proteases which induces apoptosis and it is cytotoxic. They are activated in response to interferons.
It also control the reciprocal interaction with t cells, macrophages and dendtric cells. Therefore it can reduce or accelerate immune response.
2. The lymphocyte which are responsible for humoral immunity are B lymphocytes. Helper t cells changes B cells into plasma cells. The plasma cells produce and secrete antibodies.plasma cell production of abtibodies and B lympocytes are the 2 factors responsible for humoral immunity.
3. The cell mediated immunity is an immune response involves the activation of phagocytes, t lymphocytes, and release of cytokines in response t antigen. It is the response of T cell and macrophages.Exposure of t lymphokines turns the macrophages to produce phagocytes. Activated t cell produce lymphokines and transfer factor.
4. Antigen- a foreign substance which induces the immune response or production of antibody. Eg. A bacteria or virus.
Antibody- it is a protein or immunoglobulin produced by plasma cells in response to an antigen.
Marophages-
Are large special cells of immune system that destroy or engulf or recognize the target cells.
5. Cytotoxic t cells are t cells that destroy virally infected cells and tumor. It has specific receptors that recognizes the antigen.
