    Use the crossword template to start the table and load the styles, then use the row template to construct rows. Supply parameters like this: .: Unfillable cell, no input box, background color. 0: Fillable cell with no number. 1–42: Fillable cell with number in background of cell. It should look like this:

  4. Adaptive immune system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_immune_system

    B cells and T cells, two different types of lymphocytes, carry out the main activities: antibody responses, and cell-mediated immune response. In antibody responses, B cells are activated to secrete antibodies, which are proteins also known as immunoglobulins. Antibodies travel through the bloodstream and bind to the foreign antigen causing it ...

  5. Humoral immunity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humoral_immunity

    The B cell waits for a helper T cell (T H) to bind to the complex. This binding will activate the T H cell, which then releases cytokines that induce B cells to divide rapidly, making thousands of identical clones of the B cell. These daughter cells either become plasma cells or memory cells. The memory B cells remain inactive here; later, when ...

  6. Plasma cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cell

    These antibodies are transported from the plasma cells by the blood plasma and the lymphatic system to the site of the target antigen (foreign substance), where they initiate its neutralization or destruction. B cells differentiate into plasma cells that produce antibody molecules closely modeled after the receptors of the precursor B cell. [3]

  7. Immune response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immune_response

    An immune response is a physiological reaction which occurs within an organism in the context of inflammation for the purpose of defending against exogenous factors. These include a wide variety of different toxins, viruses, intra- and extracellular bacteria, protozoa, helminths, and fungi which could cause serious problems to the health of the host organism if not cleared from the body.

  8. Cell-mediated immunity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell-mediated_immunity

    Type 1 immunity consists of these cells: [5] CD4+ T H 1 cells; CD8 + cytotoxic T cells (T c 1) T-Bet + interferon gamma producing group 1 ILCs(ILC1 and Natural killer cells) CD4 + T H 1 Cells. It has been found in both mice and humans that the signature cytokines for these cells are interferon gamma and lymphotoxin alpha.

  9. Naive B cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naive_B_cell

    In immunology, a naive B cell is a B cell that has not been exposed to an antigen. These are located in the tonsils , spleen , and primary lymphoid follicles in lymph nodes . Once exposed to an antigen , the naive B cell either becomes a memory B cell or a plasma cell that secretes antibodies specific to the antigen that was originally bound.
