Which of the following does NOT have a functional role at innate immunity?
Mast cells
Effector T cells
Complement cells
Basophils
Select the FALSE statement regarding pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs)
Includes mRNA and virus
Includes methylated CpGs
Includes the LPS cell wall of gram-negative bacteria
Includes nuclear proteins or nucleic acids found outside the nucleus such as extracellular HMGB1
Select the CORRECT statement regarding adaptive immunity
Humoral immunity is mediated by B lymphocytes
Humoral immunity is mediated by T lymphocytes
Antibody production is a feature of cell-mediated immunity
Cytokine-activated phagocytosis is not a feature of cell-mediated immunity
What is the INCORRECT statement regarding toll-like receptors?
There are 10 different functional TLRs in humans labelled TLR1-TLR10
The High mobility group box (HMGB1) DNA-binding proteins bind to TLR2
TLRs are integral membrane proteins with cysteine-rich repeat motifs flanked by leucine-rich motifs in their extracellular region
TLRs were discovered in Drosophila
Tick the CORRECT answer regarding NOD-like receptors
Not all NOD-like receptors (NLRs) originate from a nucleotide oligomerization Domain.
NOD2 is highly expressed in the brain
Both NOD1 and NOD2 contain the baculovirus IAP repeat domain in their typical domain structure
NOD1 recognizes protein components derived from gram negative and gram positive peptidoglycans
Which of these is NOT a cytosolic PRR?
NOD-like receptors
Cytosolic DNA sensors
Transcription factor NF-kB
Retinoic-acid inducible gene (RIG)-like receptors (RLRs)
Which of the following components are associated with inflammation during the complement cascade (soluble PRR)
C5b
C5b9
C3a
C3b
Which is the INCORRECT statement regarding RIG-like receptors?
RLRs can recognize ds RNA and RNA-DNA complexes
RLRs include RIG-1 and MDA5 receptors
RLRs are only expressed in bone marrow derived leukocytes
Coronavirus can evade RIG-1 and MDA5
Which of the following is a soluble PRR?
Cytosolic DNA sensors
RIG-like receptors
Collectins
NOD-like receptors
Identify the INCORRECT statement regarding the following PRRs
The complement system is a cell-associated PRR
The complement system is a soluble PRR
RLRs are present in the cytosol of phagocytes and other cells.
The TLRs are specific to the plasma membrane and endosomal membranes
