Down: 2) An adaptive immune system attack against the body's cells. 3) Cell surface proteins that are important in immune system function and are encoded by closely linked genes on the short arm of chromosome 6. 4) ) Antibodies that attack the body's own cells. 5) Immune system molecules that detect viruses, bacteria, and yeasts. complement Plasma proteins that have a variety of immune functions.6) Specialized ends of antibody chains. 8) ) Part of an antigen that an idiotype of an antibody binds. heavy chains The two longer polypeptide chains of an antibody subunit.9) A cell displaying a foreign antigen. 10) A class of T cells that recognize nonself antigens on macrophages, stimulate B cells to produce antibodies, secrete cytokines, and activate cytotoxic T cells.11) A cell descended from a B cell that produces abundant antibodies of a single type. 13) The protection from a certain infection that arises when a large majority of a population has been vaccinated, blocking spread of the disease.14)  A biochemical that a T cell secretes that controls immune function. 15) Immune system cells that reside in places where the body contacts the environment, serving as antigen-presenting cells to stimulate an immune response.16) Cells that release histamine, which dilates blood vessels near infected or injured areas. Misdirected mast cell activity causes allergic reactions.19) The two shorter polypeptide chains of an antibody subunit.20) Part of an antibody molecule that binds an antigen.21) A response of the immune system to a substance that is not dangerous. 25) A substance that can provoke an allergic response. 32) A type of lymphocyte that secretes antibody proteins in response to nonself antigens displayed on other immune system cells. Across: 1) Part of the innate immune response that causes an infected or injured area to swell with fluid, turn red, and attract phagocytes6) An innate immune system attack against the body's cells (inflammation).7) T cells A class of T cells that help to suppress an immune response when it is no longer required.12) An inactive or partial form of a pathogen that stimulates antibody production.17) A multisubunit protein, produced by B cells, that binds a specific foreign antigen, alerting the immune system or destroying the pathogen that bears the antigen. 18) Process in which B cells secrete antibodies into the bloodstream. 22) A slow, specific type of immune response following exposure to a foreign antigen23) A type of cytokine.24) An organism or infectious agent that causes an infection.26) Proteins embedded in the plasma membranes of immune system "sentinel" cells (macrophages and dendritic cells) that bind proteins common to many pathogens, stimulating innate and adaptive immune responses.27) B or T cell descendants that carry out a secondary immune response. 28) Immune system activation in response to a second or subsequent encounter with a foreign antigen.29) A class of T cells that attack cancer cells and self cells infected with viruses. 30) A type of cytokine31) type of lymphocyte that produces cytokines and coordinates the immune response. 33) A large, wandering cell that engulfs and digests debris, including cells, and presents nonself antigens, alerting other immune system cells.
