Question
Chapter 34, Problem 6WIO
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The reason why physicians may place a solution containing bovine tuberculosis bacteria into the patient’s bladder to treat the disease. Explain the reason why this treatment causes the patient’s immune system to launch an attack against the cancer cells. Write a prediction how bovine tuberculosis bacteria might help a patient’s immune system fight cancer.
Concept Introduction:
Bladder infection is caused by the infection of the lining of the cells in this organ. This infection can be caused by the micro-organisms like E.coli which adhere to the walls of the epithelial cells lining this organ. This organ stores the urine which is excreted from the human body.

- 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_forwardThe diagram shows a pathogen (in red) that is present in different cellular compartments of each of the cell types shown. In each case, a specific T cell subset will recognize peptides of that pathogen presented on MHC molecules on the surface of the cell, and will execute its effector function. From the list below, match the appropriate T cell effector response to the cell type and location of the pathogen. CD4 T cell killing of target cell CD8 T cell killing of target cell CD4 T cell activation of target cell’s antibody production CD8 T cell activation of target cell’s antibody production CD4 T cell activation of target cell’s ability to kill intracellular pathogen CD8 T cell activation of target cell’s ability to kill intracellular pathogenarrow_forwardThe largest and most effective of the phagocytes are: a. red blood cells b. lymph nodes c. macrophagesarrow_forward
