Questions and Answers

What are tolerogens?

  • Molecules that activate the immune system
  • Molecules that suppress the immune system
  • Molecules that induce tolerance in the immune system (correct)
  • Molecules that are recognized by the immune system
  • What is the purpose of the immune system's response to T cell independent antigens?

  • To generate a memory response for future encounters
  • To produce a strong, specific antibody response (correct)
  • To induce tolerance to the antigen
  • To activate T cells to destroy the antigen
  • What is the key difference between tolerogens and T cell independent antigens?
