Answer
(5) The acute phase proteins can now activate the complement system and immune cytolysis and stimulate phagocyte chemotaxis.
(3) C-reactive protein recognizes and binds to phospholipids.
(2) Interleukin-6 reaches the liver via the bloodstream where it causes the liver to synthesize and secrete the acute phase proteins (C-reactive and mannosebinding proteins) into the blood.
(4) Once bound, the acute phase proteins act like opsonins.
(1) Macrophage ingestion of microbe stimulates synthesis and secretion of interleukin-6.
