Innate or Adaptive:
Provides constant and relatively rapid protection
Innate Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Previous exposure not required to be activated
Innate Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Cells does not respond to specific viral antigens
Innate Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Cells are activated by the presence of the virus
Innate Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Develops only after exposure to a virus
Adaptive Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Specific to that particular pathogen and close relatives
Adaptive Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Involves cell and antibody mediated effector mechanism
Adaptive Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Includes the T and B lymphocytes
Adaptive Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Exhibits a memory property
Adaptive Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Quickly reactivated after re-exposure
Adaptive Immunity
Innate or Adaptive:
Includes the production of cytokines
Innate Immunity
These are cytokines made by lymphocytes
Interleukins
These are key family of cytokines
Interferons
Are key elements of antiviral resistance at the cellular level.
Interferons
These protein hormones bind to the IFN-α receptor
Type I interferon (IFN)/ IFN-α.
Activates the signaling cascade that results to induction of the interferon response genes in cells
Type I interferon (IFN)/ IFN-α.
Cytokine central to both innate and adaptive immunity.
Type II interferon or IFN- γ
Also known as Immune interferon
Type II interferon or IFN- γ
Defines multiple subtypes of T Lymphocytes.
Type II interferon
Designated as IFN-λ (lambda)
Type III
IFN- γ is what type of Interferon
Type II
Type I Interferon are activated via cel/lular receptors called
Pattern Recognition Receptors
These detects pathogen-associated molecules patterns (PAMPs) specific to different classes of viruses
Pattern Recognition Receptors (TLRs)
TRUE or FALSE:
Binding of PAMPs to PRRs stimulates the transcription of numerous genes encoding proteins involved in innate and immune responses including interferon.
TRUE
