Which cytokine results in a T cell receptor being produced on an immature T cell?
IL-7
IL-10
GM-CSF
TNF-a
Self molecules are said to induce...
Tolerance
Multi-specificity
Immunogenicity
What is negative selection?
T cells with a high affinity for self antigens are killed by apoptosis
T cells with a high avidity for self antigens are killed by apoptosis
T cells with a low affinity for self antigens are killed by apoptosis
T cells with a low affinity for self antigens are allowed to mature
What is positive selection?
T cells with a high affinity for self antigens are allowed to mature
T cells with a high affinity for self antigens are killed off by apoptosis
T cells with a low affinity for self antigens are killed off by apoptosis
The majority of T cells do not make it through negative selection.
T cells without any stimulation also die off.
