PPT-Antigen Processing and

Presentation MHCrestricted antigen recognition by T cells Any T cell can recognize an antigen on an APC only if that antigen is displayed by MHC molecules Antigen . Radioimmunoassay. Radioimmunoassay (RIA) is a very sensitive in vitro assay technique used to measure concentrations of antigens (for example, hormone levels in the blood) by use of antibodies.. RIA technique is extremely sensitive and extremely specific, requiring specialized . Let’s start. The immune system is a system of biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against disease.. . To function properly, an immune system must detect a wide variety of agents, from viruses to parasitic worms, and distinguish them from the organism’s own healthy tissue. . Ligand. In biochemistry and pharmacology, a ligand is a substance that forms a complex with a biomolecule to serve a biological purpose. In protein-ligand binding, the ligand is usually a molecule which produces a signal by binding to a site on a target protein. The binding typically results in a change of conformation of the target protein.. Cells of the Immune System. Physical & Chemical Barriers. Innate and Adaptive Immunity. Innate Defenses. Nonspecific physical and chemical barriers that contribute to resistance against infection. History . In 1963, Dr Baruch . Blumberg. accidentally discovered an antigen that detected the presence of hepatitis B in blood samples.. Dr . Blumberg. and his team identified a strange antigen from a blood sample of an Austrian Aborigine..
