APP 3 - Système immunitaire adaptatif Flashcards
Quel type de molécule CMH sont exprimé sur TOUTES les cellules nucléées?
MHC I
CMH-II est exprimé sur quels types de cellules?
Cellules présentatrices d’antigène (CPA)
- Macrophages
- Cell. dendritiques
- B-cells
Helper T-cells (CD4) recognize which type of MHC?
MHC-II
Cytotoxic T-cells (CD8) recognize which type of MHC?
MHC-I
Which type of T-cells can bind on receptors that are present on all nucleated cells?
Cytotoxic T-cells
Which type of T-cells are effective against virus-infected cells?
Cytotoxic T-cells
Which type of cells are effective ONLY against extracellular pathogens?
Helper T-cells
- Because they bind to MHC-II on CPA
Which type of molecules does MHC-I present?
Endogenous peptides (ex: viral antigens)
Do CPA also express MHC-I?
Yes!
If infected by a virus, they will bind CD8 t-cells
Combinaison des allèles d’HLA (human leukocyte antigen) chez un individu
Haplotype HLA
T or F?
MHC molecules are specific for one peptide
False
MHC molecules have a broad specificity for peptide binding
T of F?
Each MHC molecules can only present one peptide at a time
True
However, a single cell has many MHC molecules and they can present many different peptides from the same pathogen
Can cells express “empty” MHC molecules (which do not present an antigen) on their surface?
Only MHC which present a peptide are expressed in a stable manner on cell surface
CD28 receptor
Co-receptor on T-cells
- Bind B7 expressed on APC upon pathogen infection
Role of co-activators (CD28 on T-cells)
- Control T-cell migration into tissues
- Amplify activation signal via Signal 2 (to avoid false positives)
B-cell receptor complex (BRC) are composed of
- IgM
- Signal molecules (Ig-alpha and Ig-beta)
CD21 (also known as CR2)
B-cell co-receptor
- Binds C3d (complement protein fragment) often found on pathogen
- Induces signal 2 (= activation of B-cell)
How do macrophages participate in the humoral response?
They bind to pathogens that are opsonized by
- Ab
- Complement proteins
Phagocytoses them
Destroys them
How do macrophages contribute to the adaptive cellular immune response?
Reciprocal activation between Helper T-cells and macrophages
2 types of dendritic cells
- Cellules dendritiques interdigitées (conventionnelles)
- Cellules dendritiques folliculaires
Which type of dendritic cells activate T lymphocytes?
Cellules dendritiques interdigitées
Which type of dendritic cells activate B lymphocytes?
Cellules dendritiques folliculaires
