Questions Related to antibody production and vaccination

Anaphylactic shock is caused due to the release of which of the following hormone?

  1. Adrenalin

  2. Histamine

  3. Glucagon

  4. Somatostatin

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Histamines are the inflammatory substances which are released by the mast cells and basophils during the allergic reactions. The excessive release of histamine may result in anaphylactic shock. Anaphylaxis is a type of severe allergic reaction which can result in the death of the person. Antihistamines are used for the treatment and cure of the allergic reactions.

Thus, the correct answer is option B. 

Which of the following is required for the cure of anaphylactic shock?

  1. Adrenalin

  2. Antihistamine

  3. Monoclonal antibodies

  4. None of the above

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Anaphylaxis is a type of severe allergic reaction which can result in the death of the person. The first or the primary treatment which is provided, is that the person is injected with epinephrine which reduces the basic symptoms. Antihistamines are used for the treatment and cure of the allergic reactions. The antihistamines are molecules which are similar in structure to histamine and block the H1 receptors which prevent the release and action of histamines. 

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Which of the following cell releases a hydrolytic enzyme during type IV hypersensitivity reaction?

  1. Macrophages

  2. T killer cells

  3. T helper cells

  4. All of the above

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Type IV hypersensitivity Is a type of cell-mediated response. CD4+ helper T cells recognize antigen in a complex with major histocompatibility complex  Class II. The antigen-presenting cells are macrophages that secrete IL-12, which stimulates the proliferation of further CD4+ Th cells which secrete IL-2 and interferon gamma. This further inducing the release of other Th cytokines, thus mediating the immune response. Activated CD8+ T cells kill target cells on contact, whereas activated macrophages produce hydrolytic enzymes. Thus the correct answer is option A.
