Term 11 of 151
Natural killer cells function by stimulating infected cells of the body to do what?
proliferate
migrate into the lymphatic system
undergo apoptosis
present foreign antigens on their cell surface
Term 12 of 151
In regards to the interaction of hormones at target cells: thyroid hormone will increase the
number of receptors available for epinephrine on their target cell. Without thyroid hormone, the
number of available epinephrine receptors is very low thus giving epinephrine a weak effect.
Therefore, in order for epinephrine to be effective, it requires that thyroid hormone to be present.
What sort of hormonal interaction is this?
antagonism
Synergism
Permissiveness
