Generalizations T-cells recognize foreign protein antigens if these are displayed within the cleft of MHC displayed on the PM. The protein antigen must be degraded into peptides by a sequence of events called antigen processing. The degraded peptides then associate with MHC molecules with the cell interior and this peptide-MHC complex is transported to the …
Definition: Hypersensitive reactions are inflammatory reactions within the humoral or cell-mediated branches of the immune system that lead to extensive tissue damage or even death. The four types of hypersensitive reactions (Gell and Coombs classification) generate characteristic effector molecules and clinical manifestations Type I Hypersensitive Reaction It is mediated by IgE antibodies whose Fc portion …
