Homework Answers
Antigen presenting cells: The antigen presenting cells are involved in the phagocytosis, processing and presentation of the antigens. In this way, foreign pathogens are taken by APC and processed in order to be presented to T cells.
T helper (TH) cells: Their main function is to promote the differentiation and activation of immunological pathways. For example, T helpers are involved in the differentiation of B cells to plasma cells that secretes antibodies
Plasma cells: Plasma cells are responsible to secrete antibodies against foreign pathogens in order to initiate an immunological response mediated by antibodies.
Cytotoxic T cell: This type of lymphocytes is involved in the destruction of cells that are infected by an intracellular pathogen or are defective (such as cancer). The APC will present the intracellular antigen to the cytotoxic cells, initiating the response
Eosinophils: in this context, the eosinophils participates in several ways during an immunological response. They are able to produce and secrete cations proteins and reactive oxygen species that will kill the pathogen (mostly parasites)
