A

CD4 to TH1 effector cells

31
Q

what determines whether CD4 becomes TH1 or 2

A

balance of IL12 and 4

32
Q

which pro-inflammatory cytokines are promoted by IL12

A

IFNy and TNF B

33
Q

why are CD8+ stimulated by IL12 needed

A

effective in controlling tumors and maintain higher numbers

34
Q

what does IL12 prevent

A

CD8+ T cell exhaustion

35
Q

what other cells are activated by IL12

36
Q

source of IL 15

A

macro and DCs

37
Q

what is IL15 similar to

A

IL2 for shared receptor

38
Q

what can IL 15 cause

A

proliferation of CTLS but favors TH1 cell in vitro

39
Q

what is a chemoattractant for T cells from blood

40
Q

causes proliferation of memory CD4+ and CD8+ cells

41
Q

IL21 is derived from

42
Q

what does IL21 cause

A

DC, CD4+, NKT, NK, CTL, macrophage, macrophage activation. CD4 becomes TH17, B cell switching

43
Q

role of CD8 in acute viral infection

A

eliminate infection by becoming CTLs

44
Q

activated CD8+ cells produce what

A

chemokines and cytokines for eliminate infection

45
Q

role of CD4+ for CD8+ cells

A

stimulate DC and CD8 for CD8+ T memory cells

46
Q

which Ags are presented to CD8 T cells

47
Q

what happens after viral clearance

A

contraction for apoptosis

48
Q

same virus means

A

CD8+ memory cells that last for years

49
Q

what is exhaustion of CD8+ T cells

A

chronic viral infection leads to gradually extinguished CD 8+ T cells

50
Q

exhaustion leads to

A

active suppression of immune due to more PD1 and less IFNy

51
Q

what diseases are more PD1 on T cells related to

A

HIV and Hep C virus infection

52
Q

effective immuno-therapy for tumors

A

Anti-Pd-1 Abs

53
Q

PD1 blocks production of

54
Q

why does an immunological synapse have to be formed

A

protect bystander cells

55
Q

release of perforin and granzymes by

A

granule exocytosis

56
Q

point of no return for CTL

57
Q

How is apoptosis induced

A

FasL on activated CTLs binds Fas on surface of target cells

58
Q

what activates capase 3

A

perforin for apoptosis

59
Q

two types of killing by CTLS

A

perforin/granzyme and Fas/FasL

60
Q

what ion is involved in Granzyme mediated apoptosis

61
Q

what types of proteases are Granzyme A,B,C

62
Q

which granzyme is required for CTL cytotoxicity

63
Q

what is perforin homologous to

A

C9 complement protein

64
Q

what does perforin cause

A

internalization of it and granzymes

65
Q

what does Granzyme B activate

A

capase 3 for apoptosis

66
Q

what doe FAS/FasL cause in type 1 cells

A

recruitment of procapase 8 by FADD for active capase 8 to cleave capase 3

67
Q

Fas-FasL in type II cells

A

capase 8 cleaves Bid for cyt c release from mitochondria. cyt c and Apaf1 and ATP activate Capase 9 to activate Caspase 3 that activates CAD for DNA degradation

68
Q

caspase 3=

A

degrades ICAD for CAD activation to degrade DNA

69
Q

how are intracellular microbes defended against

A

CD8 and 4 together. Macrophage ingest then CD4= IFNy and IL2 to kill bacteria ad produce MHC I for CD8+ to kill cell

70
Q

virus enters cell and infects directly leads to

A

viral proteins degraded for MHCI presentation so APCs Take up viral product then present with MHC I and II for CD4+ by CD40 and CD8 to CD 80/86 for activation of CD8+. release of perforin and granzyems as well as TNFa and IFNy produced
