    I like to think of opsinization as "honey" that makes the target pathogen more delicious to phagocytes. Visual: bees to honey. "Bee"-cells respond, make honey, to attract "b"ears to eat them.

    He was meant to call that place on the cell to which the antibody binds an antigen. antigens are like antibodies consisting of peptide chains and the peptides have some areas to which the antibodies bind (which means thyat the antibody binds to specific areas, not the entire antigen). These "active seats" are called epitopes and are only a small fraction of the entire antigen

    I'm taking micro now. This what I was learned. It's different in the way of an invader presenting itself so to speak.
    B cells see Ag. The Ag attaches to the immunoglobulin binding site & processed inside the B cell making Ag fragments (epitopes). MHC2 attaches to the Ag making MHC2-Ag complex. It will then go to the surface of the B cell to display itself for the TH cell to recognize it. TH cell attaches it to the MHC2-Ag which will release cytokines to activate the B cell to Clonal expand. The clonal expansion will make some B cell, memory B cell & developing into antibody producing plasma cells.

    About 92% of all human cells are microbes; then one can ask what "are" we? My true interest is quantum mechanics, but I started education late so getting my PhD in biology before switching to sub-atomic particles. I want to research and publish work in regards to how subatomic particle interact to create such products, i.e. at 5:45 I want to know what quantum mechanisms occur in order for these variables to shift.. Science is amazing, good videos.

  • @qais84able
    @qais84able Před 12 lety

    First thank you for this wonderful illustration. I have some questions.
    1. Where does these processes take place? I mean do all of them happen in the bone marrow? plasma or lymphoid organs?
    2. U mentioned that B-cells can recognize an antigen, but can they activate themselves spontaneously?? or they need helper t-cells as well??
    3. what's about the role of b cell receptors (BCR) in recognizing antigen?
    4. How does hypermutation play a role in B-cell activation?
    Thank you for your time & help

  • @MrToxicSausage
    @MrToxicSausage Před 12 lety

    Antibodies can neutralise pathogens by binding to the active regions. Antibodies can also bind to pathogens and tag them for phagocytosis. Or the antibodies bind and signal NK cells to kill the cells.Or the bound antibodies allow the binding of a C1 complex to the pathogen surface and allow the complement cascade to destroy the cell.
    Hope that helped

  • @brcarter1111
    @brcarter1111 Před 6 lety

    since the variable regions of B-cells are assembled randomly, there is a chance they can become autoreactive, or react against healthy antigens within the body. Just like T cell receptors, B cells must be tested and autoreactive cells must be eliminated. The mechanisms controlling T cell "training" have been elucidated, but the mechanism for B cell training has yet to be discovered. Maybe it will be you, I'm sure there is a Nobel prize in it for ya for added incentive
