Which of the following is NOT a reason why childre may become less susceptible to Covid-19 compared with adults? children tend to produce more Th2 cytokines (IL-4, ILS) compared to adults in response to the infection Children have more ACE2 receptors on their epithelial tissues children tend to produce less inflammatory cytokines (e.g. IL-6) in response to the infection none of the choices shown children tend to produce nore neutralizing antibodies (from B celiso more often than adults in response to the infection

Figure 42.11 Which of the following statements about T cells is false? Helper T cells release cytokines while cytotoxic T cells kill the infected cell. Helper T cells are CD4+, while cytotoxic T cells are CD8+. MHC II is a receptor found on most body cells, while MHC I is a receptor found on immune cells only. The T cell receptor is found on both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells.

Toll-like receptors represent an ancient pathogen-recognition system. The first pattern recognition receptor (PRR) important in innate immune responses was discovered in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Stimulation of this receptor, called Toll, induces: The synthesis of prostaglandins and leukotrienes The inflammatory response in Drosophila hemolymph vessels The production of antimicrobial peptides The recruitment of phagocytic cells to the site of infection The activation of Drosophila complement
Some Type-II immunopathology mediated autoimmune diseases have manifestations inmultiple different organs. Discuss how antibodies to one single antigen can cause damage inmultiple sites throughout the body. Things you might discuss include, but are not limited towhere the antigen could be expressed, how antibodies are made, how they bind antigen,where they circulate, the ratios of antigen to antibody, mechanisms of the immune systemthat result in cellular/tissue damage, or how immune system components can affect otherorgans. You might also comment on what makes one antigen an attractive target rather thananother. Please do NOT comment on all the things listed above, they are just to get youthinking. If you are having trouble getting started, it might help to think about a specificdisease which affects multiple organs.
Many of the inflammatory mediators produced by tissue macrophages at sites of infection act on the endothelial cells lining the blood vessel walls. An exception to this is (are) the: Cytokines that induce increased vascular permeability Chemokines that induce directed migration of blood monocytes Cytokines that induce increased expression of adhesion molecules TNF produced by tissue-resident sensor cells Bradykinin produced that causes pain
Helper T cells are affected by HIV, how come is this receptor key to the immune system? which line of defense are we referring to? How is it connected to the immune system and which line of defense? Hence, based on your prompt, how are cytokines linked to the defense mechanism of HIV virus? Do you know or can you explain the cascade of events dealing with PAMPS, TLRs, interferon? What do they have to do with the second line of defense?
