All of the following regarding CD1a, b, and c are true except _____.
a. They have a more limited tissue distribution than CD1d.
b. CD1b associates with CD1e for the purpose of lipid transfer.
c. They cycle through endosomal vesicles in different locations of the cell with the assistance of adaptor proteins.
d. They possess different sizes of antigen-binding sites.
e. They all present lipid antigens.
f. They cycle continually between the cell surface and endosomal compartments, allowing exchange of antigens.
g. CD1b can accommodate more than one antigen simultaneously.
h. They are expressed by double-positive thymocytes and facilitate positive selection of CD1-restricted T cells.
i. They present antigens to NKT cells.
Enhanced phagocytosis of a cell by the binding of aspecific protein is called ________.a. endocytosisb. opsonizationc. anaphylaxisd. complement activation
Notice the comment that after treatment your CD4 count should rise. Why does treatment allow CD4s to increase?
A
Anti-retroviral therapy consists of transfusions of CD4 cells.
B
Anti-retroviral therapy directly stimulates cell division of CD4 cells, so their numbers increase.
C
Anti-retroviral therapy will prevent HIV from replicating and killing your CD4s. CD4s can grow back to some degree.
