Question
Chapter 45, Problem 13TYU
Summary Introduction
To determine: The effects of significant reduction of macrophages in the body.
Introduction: A complex network of cells, tissues, and organs that work collectively to protect the body and fight against the pathogens or foreign substances is called the immune system. Immune cells are the cells that actively participate in the defense mechanism initiated by the immune systems. One such major type of immune cells is lymphocytes.

- Describe neutrophils and NK cells, giving one example of how each cell type destroys pathogens that have invaded your body. Why are they both part of the “innate” immune system?arrow_forwardUse to answer: In 1984, Robert Gallo and Luc Montagnier independently identified what is known today as HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). Worldwide, 17 million people suffer from HIV, which is a virus that attacks human T lymphocytes. The T lymphocytes, a crucial part of the immune system, mature in the thymus. As a result of HIV, B cell lymphocytes also decrease in number . Most HIV patients die because of other diseases like tuberculosis and cancer. Once an infected individual's lymphocytes count reaches less than 200 per cubic millimeter of blood (normal is 500-1100 T cells/mm^ 3 ) , susceptibility to disease increases, and levels below 10 can be fatal. A) How would a decrease in the thymus T cell lymphocytes cause an increase in susceptibility of disease? B) Identify the 4 types of Tlymphocytes that mature in the thymus, including their role in the immune response: C) A decrease in B cell lymphocytes would affect the immune system in what way ?arrow_forwardFor an autoimmune disease to occur, lymphocytes do not learn how to recognize foreign pathogens as dangerous and self-antigens as safe.
