Question
required information
which of the following are needed for antibody production to occur with t cell dependent antigens?
multiple choice
antigen presenting cell
t helper cell
b cell
all of these choices are correct answers.
only the second and third choices are correct answers.
Brief Explanations
For antibody production with T - cell dependent antigens:
- Antigen - presenting cells (APCs) process and present the antigen to T - helper cells.
- T - helper cells then interact with B - cells (after receiving the antigen - MHC complex from APCs). The T - helper cells provide co - stimulatory signals (e.g., cytokines like IL - 4) to B - cells.
- B - cells, upon receiving these signals (along with the antigen - binding to their B - cell receptors), differentiate into plasma cells (which produce antibodies) and memory B - cells.
So all three cell types (antigen - presenting cell, T - helper cell, B - cell) are required.
