This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Ch 15, tumor specific antigens eg HER2, cytotoxic t-cells independent of antibodies, cytotoxic t-cells present ligand to FAS receptor, antibodies recruit NK cells, compliment binds complex of these in the Fc region antigens, immune response is adaptive, Herceptin acts on receptor of HER2, dendridic cell takes up and chews up all proteins, immunostimulation stimulates immune system, macrophages represent Humoral Immune Response, tumor cells can kill immunocytes, adaptive aka is educated upon exposure to antigens, macrophages function via endocytosis of target cell, helper T-cells relay between dendridic cell, Major histocompatability complex (MHC) class II to distinguish between non self, immunocytes use histocompatability, evade via overexpression of an inhibitor, all proteins have differences that allow them to be recognized by immune response, eg timing of expression (pre/post embryogenesis), passive immunization aka adoptive transfer, autoimmune disease eg recognizes self
