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.
