Questions and Answers

When it comes to inducing tolerance, which factor plays a key role in determining whether tolerogens will be introduced during the perinatal or adult period?

  • Time of introduction of tolerogens (correct)
  • Persistence of tolerogens in the host
  • Dose of the tolerogens
  • Structure of the tolerogens

In inducing tolerance, what impact does the structure of the tolerogens have according to the provided text?

  • Moderate complexity induces faster tolerance
  • Simple molecules induce tolerance more rapidly (correct)
  • Complex structures induce tolerance more rapidly
  • Highly unstable structures induce tolerance faster

How does the persistence of tolerogens in the host affect tolerance induction based on the information given?

  • It accelerates the tolerance process
  • It hinders the induction of tolerance (correct)
  • It depends on the timing of introduction
  • It results in an immune response
