Study Notes
T Cell Maturation
- T cells mature in the thymus.
B Cell Function
- The primary function of a B cell is to produce antibodies.
T Cell Role in Immune Response
- T cells play a central role in cell-mediated immune response.
- T cells recognize and respond to antigens presented by antigen-presenting cells.
B Cell Function in Immune System
- The main function of B cells in the immune system is to produce antibodies to combat infections.
Cell-Antigen Interaction
- T cells directly interact with antigens presented by antigen-presenting cells.
T Cell Function
- The primary function of T cells in the immune system is to recognize and respond to antigens.
T Cell Subtype
- Helper T cells (CD4+) stimulate B cells to produce antibodies.
Adenovirus Characteristics
- Adenovirus is a type of DNA virus.
Adenovirus Infection
- Adenovirus commonly infects epithelial cells.
- A common symptom of Adenovirus infection is conjunctivitis (pink eye).
- Adenovirus is typically transmitted through respiratory, fecal-oral, and ocular routes.
Test your knowledge of the interaction between B cells and T cells, including their primary functions, maturation sites, and roles in the immune response. This quiz also covers the direct interaction of T cells with antigens presented by antigen-presenting cells.
