ANTIBODY IMMUNITY IS BETTER TERMED AS HUMORAL IMMUNITY
Humoral immunity is acquired by B-lymphocytes and T-helper lymphocytes as
An antigen is engulfed by antigen processing cell (APC) e.g. , B-cells
then
a part of an antigen (epitope) is presented to T-helper cells in association with MHC-II (MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX)
then
T-helper cell activates B-cell to produce effector cell (plasma cell) and memory cell
then plasma cell secrete antibodies which neglify harmful or toxic effects of the above antigen.
CELL MEDIATED IMMUNITY
Every cell of the body can show this response while in the above case only APC can show humoral response
A whole foreign body/ antibody is engulfed by the cell
then
epitope is represented to cytotoxic T-lymphocytes(CTLs)
then
CTLs secrete certain chemicals which kill the cell along with foreign body.
What else can I help you with?
Which immune system consists of cellular immunity and humoral immunity?
inner
What is the Differentiate between Humoral mediated immune response and cellular mediated immune response?
The difference between humoral immunity and cell-mediated immunity is that humoral immunity uses B cells and T cells whereas mediated immunity only uses the T cells. Also humoral immunity provides a defense against antigens and pathogens in body fluids whereas cell-mediated immunity protects from abnormal cells and pathogens inside living cells.
What kind of immunity depends upon the production of disease specific antibodies to destroy harmful bacteria?
humoral immunity
Is Acquired Immunity the same as Humoral Immunity?
Actually acquired immunity consists of "humoral immunity" and "cell mediated immunity. Acquired immunity is the same with adaptive immunity, it is when the antibodies are produced within the bodies after the exposure of pathogen. Humoral immunity secreted antibodies while cell mediated immunity involves in production of T lymphocytes.
What is the difference between humoral and cell-mediated immunity?
how they respond to and dispose of invaders.
What has the author James L Biesecker written?
James L. Biesecker has written: 'Cellular and humoral immunity after allogeneic transplantation in the rat'
A circulating antibody is what?
humoral immunity...
Comparison of humoral and cell mediated immune response?
Humoral immunity is effected by antibodies produced by plasma cells toward a specific foreign antigen. Cellular immunity does not directly involve antibodies, but refers to cellular destruction of alien cells/tissues by production of cytotoxins locally, typically the latter are produced by T-lymphocytes and natural killer cells.
What immunity is where resistance is provided by antibodies released to body fluids?
humoral immunity
What lymphocyte act as the bridge between the cellular and humoral responses?
helper T cell
What type of immunity can be transferred by bodily fluids from one person to another thus conferring immunity to the recipient?
humoral immunity
What type of immunity are b cells and antibodies?
Part of humoral
