| 1. | Opsonins aid the immune system in a number of ways.
|
| 2. | After opsonin binds to the membrane, phagocytes are attracted to the pathogen.
|
| 3. | Tunicate intelectin is an opsonin for phagocytosis by hemocyte.
|
| 4. | With the antigen coated in opsonins, binding to immune cells is greatly enhanced.
|
| 5. | They also express receptors to detect and adhere to endothelium and Fc receptors for opsonin.
|
| 6. | The molecular mechanisms facilitating opsonin-dependent phagocytosis are different for specific opsonin / receptor pairs.
|
| 7. | The molecular mechanisms facilitating opsonin-dependent phagocytosis are different for specific opsonin / receptor pairs.
|
| 8. | Opsonins include Mfge8, Gas6, Protein S, antibodies and complement factors C1q and C3b.
|
| 9. | The recognition and clearance of invading microorganisms occurs through both opsonin-dependent and opsonin independent pathways.
|
| 10. | Opsonization involves the binding of an opsonin, e . g ., antibody, to an epitope on an antigen.
