Mikki Johnston, April 23 3/3

What we Did today:
1. Listen to Chally talk about something. Ummm I think it was about sitting down or maybe about the field trip I can't remember...
2. Watch this super neat vidoe explaining the Immue system. It had these cool looking guys and such.("Your Magic Doctor" was the name of the cartoon)
3. got sheets so show our progress on out projects.
4. Then we went to the library to work on our projects.

Thoughts and opinions:
So the movie really helped cause it was a cartoon and I could pay attention to it, so I learn more about the Immue system. Having the time to work on our projects was good too!

Above and beyond:
As I was watching the cartoon I got to thinking about how the helper t cells call for help and such. This is what I found out:
"Helper T cells (effector T cells or Th cells) are the "middlemen" of the adaptive immune system. Once activated, they divide rapidly and secrete small proteins called cytokines that regulate or "help" the immune response. Depending on the cytokine signals received, these cells differentiate into TH1, TH2, TH17, or one of other subsets, which secrete different cytokines. CD4+ cells associated with MHC class II.
