Accepted Answer

Surface receptors: Each cell has a membrane surface with numerous different proteins that can interact with other signals- proteins or small molecules like hormones- producing reactions within the cell.

Question 9

what does the complement receptor type 1 do?

Accepted Answer

CR1: There is some controversy here, but it seems to mainly act through binding of C1q upon forming complexes with antibody in the bloodstream.  CR1 is highly expressed on red blood cells, so these cells carry immune complexes away from the site of attachment to the spleen where the immune complexes are destroyed. An "immune complex" is a cluster of antibodies and there antigen targets (like a virus).

Question 10

which type of wound is most receptive to hiv?

Accepted Answer

Open is Open: It is important to remember that viruses like hepc, HIV and others are strings of proteins that are connected by very weak bonds.  They require many things to stay active and need living cells to reproduce and survive.  Anytime an organic substance containing HIV or hepatitis (like blood, semen) gets into an open cut or contacts a moist mucous membrane (mouth/anus/vagina), the risk there.
