What occurs in a cell-mediated immune response? Select all that apply.       Naive B cells bind to antigen on the surface of a bacterium and become activated.   A dendritic cell incorporates digested viral antigen-MHC complexes.   Naive cytotoxic T cells bind to antigen on antigen-presenting dendritic cells and become activated.   Effector cytotoxic T cells circulate through the body and kill any body cells that display the viral antigen-MHC complexes.
Which of the following best defines MHC restriction? Select one: a. The TCR recognizes a particular epitope in the context of a specific MHC molecule. b. Any given MHC molecule is able to bind a wide variety of epitopes. C. The TCR recognizes only the MHC molecule. Od. The TCR recognizes the epitope bound to any MHC molecule having the correct motif. Oe. A TCR may bind to either an MHC Class I or MHC Class II molecule along with the bound epitope.
The virus shown in the diagram below is only able to infect and replicate in epithelial cells. In order for the cross-presenting dendritic cell to display viral peptides, rather than self peptides on its surface MHC class I proteins, which of the following procedures could be utilized, starting with the components shown in the figure below? Mix epithelial cells with heat-killed virus, wait 24 hrs, wash away any virus particles outside the epithelial cells, then add epithelial cells to dendritic cells. Mix epithelial cells with viral peptides, wait 24 hrs, wash away any viral peptides not bound to the epithelial cells, then add epithelial cells to dendritic cells. Mix epithelial cells with live virus particles, wait 24 hrs, wash away any virus particles outside the epithelial cells, then add epithelial cells to dendritic cells. Mix dendritic cells with viral nucleic acids and epithelial cells for 24 hrs. MIx epithelial cells will viral nucleic acids, wait 24 hrs, wash away any viral…
