Study Notes
Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)
- MHC is a tight cluster of linked genes.
Immune System Cells
- Chediak-Higashi syndrome is caused by a deficiency of NK cells.
- Polymorphonuclear leukocytes include:
- Eosinophils
- Basophils
- Not macrophages
- Mast cells have a high affinity receptor for IgE.
- Microglial cells are macrophages associated with the central nervous system.
Antigen Presentation
- Dendritic cells constitutively express Class II MHC molecules.
- Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) include:
- Dendritic cells
- Not lymphoid dendritic cells
- Follicular dendritic cells do not function as antigen-presenting cells.
