A. Class II MHC and costimulators B. Class I MHC and CD4 C. Class II MHC and CD8 D. CD4 and costimulators E. Class II MHC and CD4 Title: A helper T cell response to a protein antigen requires the participation of antigen-presenting cells ... Post by: sylviag14 on Jan 22, 2018 ANS: A. Helper T cells are almost always CD4+. The activation of naive CD4+ T cells requires T cell receptor recognition of class II MHC-peptide complexes and the binding of costimulators, both on the antigen-presenting cell (APC) surface. CD4+ helper T cells bind to class II MHC molecules on the APC, not to class I MHC molecules. CD4 or CD8 expression on the APC surface is of no known relevance to T cell activation.
