the T cell and B7 proteins on APC. â¢ Ligands for B7 are CD28 and CTLA-4 (CD 152) [these act antagonistically with each other] â¢ CD28 expressed on both resting and activated T cells but CTLA-4 found only on activated cells (24 h after stimulation). â¢ CD27 & B7 stimulates (augments) IL-2 production and proliferation.
Modesty is the quality of a personâs being that is demonstrated or shown by his/her moderate and unassuming style of dress and behavior. Modesty is most commonly associated with how a person dresses, particularly that of women or girls, but it is a broader virtue of oneâs personality. It is similar to humility as it is expressed in oneâs behavior. In respect to how a person dresses, it indicates, for the most part, that such a person does not display her or his body in a way that excessively emphasizes her or his sexual attributes.
Shyness from people and society may be a reason to be modest, but this modesty will not remain due to the fact that what is immodest one day in a secular society may be totally acceptable in another. Thus, the key to modesty is knowing that God is aware of what you do and shying away from that which He forbids.
