Immune Pathway
The first part of our immune response
What is virus recognition?
A cell that can mature into various other cells
What is a stem cell?
A cell that kills pathogens but dies after
What is a Neutrophil?
A type of lymphocyte that creates antibodies
What is a B Lymphocyte?
Memory cells only forming after a recovery from the infection
What is the memory formation without a vaccine?
An organ that trains T-cells
What is the Thymus?
A cell that captures bacteria and presents it to the lymph nodes
What is a dendritic cell?
A type of T-lymphocyte that fights off cancer
What is a Cytotoxic (Killer) T-cell?
Helper T-Cells QUICKLY producing antibodies specific to the virus
What is the immune response with a vaccine?
Parts of a system that filter your lymphatic fluid
What are the lymph nodes?
A cell that removes dead cells and bacteria
What is a macrophage?
A type of Lymphocyte that scans cells and kills them
What is a Natural Killer (NK) Cell?
Heavy production of cytokines, NK cells assisting in killing infected cells, and a higher chance of symptoms
What is the immune response without a vaccination
An organ that releases blood cells when needed
What is bone marrow?
A cell that helps filter your bloodstream and fight allergic reactions
A lymphocyte that remembers antigens and helps the body respond to viral attacks
What is a Memory Cell?
Dendritic cells capture and begin antigen processing, heavy disease symptoms are experienced
What is virus recognition without a vaccine?
An organ that controls your blood cell levels
What is the spleen?
A cell that transforms into Macrophages or Dendritic Cells
What is a monocyte?
A type of lymphocyte that activates other lymphocytes and cells
What is a Helper T-cell?
