The company will, however, deduct the policy excess. Letâs say your car is worth Â£10,000 and is written-off in an accident. The insurance company might offer a settlement of Â£10,000, less the excess of Â£300, to give you Â£9,700.
It is now generally accepted that the demyelination seen in MS is caused by an abnormal immune process â that is, by activation of T cells (and perhaps B cells) against some component of central nervous system myelin (the fatty sheath that surrounds and insulates nerve fibers).
The cellular events that result in delayed hypersensitivity reactions primarily involve T cells and macrophages. First, local immune and inflammatory responses at the site of foreign antigen up-regulate endothelial cell adhesion molecule expression, promoting the accumulation of leukocytes at the tissue site.elayed hypersensitivity is a major mechanism of defense against various intracellular pathogens, including mycobacteria, fungi, and certain parasites, and it occurs in transplant rejection and tumor immunity. The central role of CD4 + T cells in delayed hypersensitivity is illustrated in patients with AIDS.
