Presentation Transcript

  1. What are toll-like receptors? Where do you find them? What is their function? • What is the role of natural killer cells? • Describe the inflammatory response. • What is the first line of defense? • Differentiate between invertebrate and vertebrate immunity. • List three characteristics of the acquired immune system • Sketch out the structure of a B-cell receptor and a T-cell receptor. How are their functions differ?

  2. Differentiate between a pathogen, antigen and an epitope. • Differentiate between the following: • Primary and secondary immune response • Cell mediated immune response and humoral immune response • Active and passive immunity • What is the role of cytokines, the complement system and interpherones in the function of the immune system? • What is clonal selection? • How does the diversity of lymphocytes arise?
