Activation of a Naive T4 Lymphocyte by an Antigen-Presenting Cell and Its Subsequent Proliferation and Differentiation into Effector T4 Lymphocytes
MicrobeLibrary Visual: Animation
7/14/2005 by Gary Kaiser
Following the activation of a naive T4 lymphocyte by an antigen-presenting cell, that T4 cell subsequently proliferates into a large clone of identical T4 cells and most of these then differentiate into effector T4 lymphocytes. |
Activation of a Macrophage by a Th1 Lymphocyte
MicrobeLibrary Visual: Animation
7/14/2005 by Gary Kaiser
Th1 cells function primarily to bind to macrophages and promote their phagocytosis and killing of intracellular microbes. |
Clonal Selection and Clonal Expansion
MicrobeLibrary Visual: Animation
7/14/2005 by Gary Kaiser
A B lymphocyte with an appropriately fitting B-cell receptor normally only reacts with epitopes of an antigen having a corresponding shape which, in turn, eventually enables the B lymphocyte to proliferate into a large clone of identical B lymphocytes. |
Activation of B Lymphocytes by T-Independent Antigens
MicrobeLibrary Visual: Image
7/14/2005 by Gary Kaiser
TI-1 antigens activate B lymphocytes by binding to their specific toll-like receptors rather than to B-cell receptors; TI-2 antigens activate B lymphocytes by simultaneously cross-linking a number of B-cell receptors. |
Activation of an Antibody Response to T-Dependent Antigens
MicrobeLibrary Visual: Animation
7/14/2005 by Gary Kaiser
These animations illustrate the activation of naive B lymphocytes by T-dependent antigens and their subsequent production of antibodies. |
Antibody-Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity by Natural Killer Cells
MicrobeLibrary Visual: Animation
7/14/2005 by Gary Kaiser
These animations illustrate how natural killer cells kill infected cells to which antibody molecules have attached through a process called antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. |

Case Studies in Microscopy
MicrobeLibrary Curriculum: Classroom
7/13/2005 by Susan Merkel, William Ghiorse, Marilyn Dispensa
This website has three auto-tutorial case studies (about biofilms, microbes in a watershed, and an outbreak) that ask students to analyze and interpret microscopic images |
