It is often helpful to draw a complicated pathway in the form of a flow chart to visualize the multiple steps and the ways in which the steps are connected to each other. Draw the antibody-mediated immune response pathway that acts in response to an invading virus.
The Adaptive Immune Response Is a Specific Defense Against Infection Identify the components of cellular immunity, and define their roles in the immune response.
Complement proteins function in defense by _______. a. neutralizing toxins b. enhancing resident bacteria c. promoting inflammation d. forming pores that cause pathogens to disintegrate e. both a and b f. both c and d
Which activities by knocking out the following genes: Formation of classical pathway C3 convertase Formation of alternative pathway C3 convertase Formation of classical pathway C5 convertase Formation of lectin pathway C3 convertase C3b-mediated opsonization Neutrophil chemotaxis and inflammation Cell lysis will be inhibited C1q Complement component knocked out C5 C3 Factor B C4 C9 MASP-2
Which of the following complement components are generated during the classical pathway and bind independently to the membrane surface promoting immune adherence and opsonizing effects? C3b O C3d O C1q O C2
A patient develops a blood infection with a capsule-producing strain of E. coli. Phagocytosis by macrophage will be essential to destroy the bacteria and resolve the infection. Which of the following will be dirertly required to allow ADCC-opsonization of the encapsulated E. coli: O Toll-like receptor (TLR)-induced secretion of tumor necrosis factor alpha O Release of C3a to the extracellular fluids O Presence of MHC II on the surface of the macrophage O Presence of IgG receptors (Fc-gamma-R) on the macrophage All of the answers apply
Macrophages and neutrophils both contribute to extracellular pathogen protection. Describe their common characteristics, differences in structure and function, and if one were eliminated from the innate immune response, explain which one would be more detrimental to the body and why.
Individuals infected with herpes simplex virus (HSV) mount protective antibody responses directed against surface glycoproteins of the virus. These antibodies are critical to viral clearance. The act to neutralise any virus trying to infect a person’s cells as well as activating the classical pathway of complement and cytotoxic cell-mediated killing of infected target cells. Having a deficiency in the complement component C3 greatly impairs a person’s ability to control HSV infections. To understand this further, you will investigate this in the lab. Using C3-deficient mice, you infect them with HSV at day 0 and then a second time 4 weeks later. A hypothesis is a tentative answer to a scientific question and is an important part of practical experiments. A testable hypothesis is statement that can be proved or disproved as a result of experimentation. Q1. State the problem that you are trying to solve. And then formulate a robust testable hypothesis for your…

A hypothesis is a tentative answer to a scientific question and is an important part of practical experiments. A testable hypothesis is statement that can be proved or disproved as a result of experimentation. You perform an ELISA to measure the antibody response of the C3-deficient and normal mice (referred to as wild-type – WT)…
How many types of “foreign molecules” (use the proper term where needed) does each cell recognize? On the pathogen side – what molecules will be recognized by these immune cells? (no need for specific names, just a few examples of pathogen molecules that will trigger an immune response) Bloodwork indicates that a patient who has pneumonia is actively secreting different forms of antibody against Streptococcus pneumoniae. Explain how the patient can respond to this pathogen by secreting more than one antibody.
Which of the following is NOT an example of non- specific (innate) resistance mechanisms interacting directly with specific acquired immunity mechanisms? Complement being activated by antigen- antibody binding Macrophages and dendritic cells presenting antigens to lymphocytes Antibodies binding to bacterial surface antigens, coating (opsonizing) the bacteria and enhancing their phagocytosis by leukocytes None of the other four answers (All are examples of interaction between innate and acquired resistance) Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity
Complement is an integral part of the innate immune response to bacteria . One of its mechanisms of action is to behave as an anaphylatoxin Describe the anaphylatoxic effects of complement identifying which components are activated.
