The correct option is B aiii,bi,civ,dii
  • Interferons are a group of signalling proteins made and released by host cells in response to the presence of several viruses. Generally, a virus-infected cell will release interferons causing nearby cells to make their anti-viral defences.
  • A paratope also called an antigen-binding site or Fab. It is a part of an antibody which recognizes and binds to an antigen. It is a small region of the antibody containing the antibody's heavy and light chains.
  • Interleukins (ILs) are a group of cytokines (secreted proteins and signal molecules) that were first seen to be expressed by white blood cells (leukocytes).
  • Histamine is an organic nitrogenous compound involved in local immune responses, as well as regulating physiological function in the gut and acting as a neurotransmitter for the brain, spinal cord, and uterus. Histamine is involved in the inflammatory response and has a central role as a mediator of itching.
  • So, the correct answer is 'a-iii,b-i,c-iv,d-ii'.
