The following statements are made with reference to the characteristic of proteoglycans (major constituents of ECM). Which one of them is incorrect?

#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling
  1. Perlecan the major secreted proteoglycan in basal laminae, consists of a large multidomain core protein (∼470 kDa) to which polysaccharides are covalently attached.

  2. Perlecan contains three types of covalent polysaccharide chains: N-linked chains, O-linked chains, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).

  3. Perlecan can be found in basal laminae and in non–basal laminal ECM.

  4. The adhesion receptor dystroglycan can bind perlecan indirectly, via perlecan’s LG domains, and directly, via its binding to laminin.

If a given lymphocyte divides to form two daughter cells, both daughters bear antigen receptors with antigen specificities identical to each other and to the parental cell from which they arose, and so will any descendants they produce. The resulting population of lymphocytes, all arising from the same founding lymphocyte, is a clone. Which interleukin is responsible for clone production?

  _______are motile phagocytic cells they play their most important role in the defense against multicellular parasitic organisms, including worms. They can be found clustering around invading worms, whose membranes are damaged by the activity of proteins released from its granules. it may also secrete cytokines that regulate B and T lymphocytes, thereby influencing the adaptive immune response.

undifferentiated hematopoietic stem cells would not express surface markers specific for mature cells from the multiple blood lineages (“Lin” markers). They used several approaches to eliminate cells in the bone marrow that did express these markers (Lin+ cells) and then examined the remaining (Lin+) population for its potential to continually give rise to all blood cells over the long term. Lin- cells were, indeed, enriched for this potential. what marker is   express If cells inter in lymphoid lineages?
