The primary function of the humoral, or antibody-mediated, immune response is to control freely circulating pathogens is a "true" statement.
What is humoral, or antibody-mediated?
Antibody-mediated immunity is another name for homunculus immunity.
Some key features of humoral are-
- B cells will develop into plasma B cells, which can manufacture antibodies against a particular antigen, with the aid of helper T cells.
- The humoral system reacts to pathogen antigens that are in the environment or outside of the diseased cells.
- By binding to antigens, antibodies made by B cells either neutralize them or trigger lysis (the breakdown or apoptosis of cells by an isozyme) or phagocytosis.
- T lymphocytes have a role in the cellular immunity that takes place inside infected cells.
- The cell surface or an antigen-presenting cell expresses the pathogen's antigens.
- Helper T cells promote inflammation that enable activated T cells to attach to the MHC-antigen complex of infected cells and develop into cytotoxic T cells. After that, the infected cell is lysed.
