- Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome is an immunodeficiency disease due to mutations in the gene encoding WASp. Individuals with this disease make poor antibody responses to protein antigens, due to impaired T cell help for B cells. WASp-deficient T cells are likely impaired in providing adequate help to B cells due to: A. Defects in up-regulating expression of genes encoding cytokines required by B cells B. Defects in up-regulating metabolic pathways for T cell macromolecular synthesis C. Defects in up-regulating expression of genes needed for T cell survival D. Defects in cytoskeletal reorganization needed for directed T cell cytokine secretion E. Defects in up-regulating T cell integrin adhesion for stable interactions with B cellsarrow_forwardAntibodies Select one: a. are not specific, but act generally. b. are composed of four light and four heavy polypeptide chains. c. play a large role in cell-mediated immunity. d. are produced by both T and B cells. e. have a variable region that binds to a specific antigenic determinant.arrow_forwardThe MHC structure is critical for... a. Natural Killer Cells to identify healthy cells b. T cells to become activated c. B cells to get activated d. Histamines to functionarrow_forward
- How could you distinguish the type of T cell that is active in an immune response? What outcomes would you be looking for to help determine which T cell is producing that result? Explain and provide examples.arrow_forwardHelper T cells can be activated by macrophages(which engulf everything indiscriminately) or by B cells (which only engulf antigens that stick to their receptors). A. What properties so macrophages and B cells have ibn common that allows them both to activate T cells? B. It has been suggested that macrophages probably do most to fhte T cell activating in the primary response but B cells do most of it in the secondary response. Why does this make sense?arrow_forwardWhich of the following cell types is unable to interact with naive T cells and induce their activation? (Select all that apply.) a. B cells b. macrophages resident in infected tissues c. macrophages resident in secondary lymphoid tissue d. interdigitating reticular cells e. immature dendritic cells.arrow_forward
- Identify which of the following statements regarding naive T cells is incorrect. a. Naive T cells have the capacity to survive for many years as nondividing circulating cells in the absence of specific antigen. b. Naive T cells express LFA-1 molecules that change their conformation after encountering a specific peptide:MHC complex. c. Naive T cells exit from lymph nodes using the same route as effector T cells. d. Naive T cells express ICAM-3, which binds to DC-SIGN on dendritic cells with high affinity. e. Naive T cells express high levels of S1P receptors on their surface.arrow_forwardWhich of the following characteristics is true of large Pre-B cells? Select one: a. They do not express CD19 at the cell surface. b. Rearrangement of light-chain genes commences. c. Nonproductive rearrangement of both heavy-chain loci has already occurred. d. Allelic exclusion of the immunoglobulin light-chain loci has already occurred. u is assembled with VpreB25. e.arrow_forwardWhich of the following pairs is mismatched? a. plasma cell: mediation of phagocytosis and killing of microorganisms in the plasma b. megakaryocyte: formation of platelets c. dendritic cell: activation of adaptive immune responses d. natural killer cell: develops from a common lymphoid progenitor e. neutrophil: formation of pus f. regulatory T cell: inhibition of T-cell activity.arrow_forward
