Immunology Potpourri
100
This class of secreted antibody consists of two heavy Epsilon chains.
What is IgE?
100
These cause antibody responses to be generated.
What are antigens?
100
This type of immunity responds within minutes.
What is innate?
100
This solution is used to rinse microtiter plate wells.
What is PBS?
100
These are the two types of immunity.
What are acquired and innate?
200
This class of antibody is a pentamer.
What is IgM?
200
This is the portion of an antigen to which TCRs bind.
What is an epitope?
200
This type of immunization can be achieved by a bone marrow transplant.
What is adoptive immunization?
200
In precipitin reactions, this phase occurs between the zone of antibody excess and the zone of antigen excess.
What is the equivalence zone?
200
This type of leukocyte usually responds to parasitic infections.
What is an eosinophil?
300
This class of immunoglobulins contains four subclasses.
What is IgG?
300
The numbers of these large, granular lymphocytes do not increase in response to antigens.
What are NK cells?
300
Of the following signs and symptoms, this is not indicative of inflammation: redness, pain, edema, heat.
What is edema?
300
This type of bond is not associated with interactions between antigens and antibodies.
What are covalent bonds?
300
This enzyme cleaves immunoglobulins into Fc subfragments.
What is pepsin?
400
This class of immunoglobulins is secreted in saliva, mucus, tears, sweat, and gastric fluids.
What is IgA?
400
This is a univalent, low molecular weight substance that cannot induce an immune response.
What is a hapten?
400
This organ consists of red pulp and white pulp.
What is the spleen?
400
A compromised lymphoid defense mechanism caused by the failed development of B and T cells.
What is SCID?
400
Of the following, this is not an organ of the lymphatic system: Sweetbreads, Peyer's patches, Tripe.
What is Tripe?
500
This immunoglobulin has no subclasses.
What is IgD?
500
This is a commonly used adjuvant in experimental animals.
What is Freund's complete adjuvant?
500
Recognition of intracellular pathogens in innate immune cells involves these.
What are NOD-like receptors?
500
These are used in the production of monoclonal antibodies.
What are malignant plasma cells?
500
These consist of basophils, mast cells, eosinophils, and neutrophils.
What are polymorphonuclear leukocytes?
