23
Q

Where are Cellules dendritiques interdigitées located?

A
  • Immature: in epithelium (ex: cellules de Langerhans)

- Mature: dans zones de lymphocytes T (tissus lymphoides)

24
Q

Where are Cellules dendritiques folliculaires located?

A

Rate et ganglions:

dans les centres germinaux des follicules lymphoides

25
Q

Where are T-cells located?

A
  • In circulation

- Rate et ganglions: zones périartériolaire (“pulpe blanche” et interfolliculaire

26
Q

Where are B-cells located?

A
  • In circulation

- Follicule des tissus lymphoides périphériques (ganglions, rate, amygdales, tissus muqueux)

27
Q

Les DC des ganglions lymphatiques captent quel types d’antigènes?

A

Antigènes solubles

Dans la lymphe

28
Q

Les DC dans la rate captent quel types d’antigènes?

A

Antigènes solubles

Dans le sang

29
Q

Rôle du chimiokine CCR7

A

Guider la migration des DC

Épithélium –> Vx lymphatiques –> Ganglions lymphatiques (site de rencontre avec T-cells)

30
Q

Quelles cellules expriment le chimiokine CCR7? (pour attirer DC)

A
  • cellules épithéliales des vx lymphatiques
  • cellules dans la zone des ganglions lymphatiques
  • Lymphocytes T naifs
31
Q

Pourquoi les DC migrent vers la rate, les ganglions, tissus lymphoides?

A

Car plus grande concentration de T-cells à ces endroits = plus grande chance de rencontrer T-cell avec le bon récepteur

32
Q

Les macrophages activent quels lymphocytes?

A

Lymphocytes T

33
Q

Comment les macrophages activent les T-cells?

A

En présentant antigènes sur leurs MHC

et en sécrétant des cytokines (IL-6, IL-12, IL-23)

34
Q

Quel type de protéines sont présentées sur les MHC-I ?

A

Antigènes cytoplasmiques (produits par virus)

35
Q

Naive B-cells produce which type of antibodies?

A
  • IgM+

- IgD+

36
Q

Production of functionally different Ab, all with the same specificity, relies on which process?

A

Heavy-chain class (isotype) switching

37
Q

What does the T-cell receptor (TCR) recognize on APC?

A

Antigen-MHC complex

38
Q

What are CD4 and CD8? (function)

A

Co-receptors on T-cells

- Function as co-activators along with TCR (signal 1)

39
Q

What does CD4 recognize?

A

MHC-II molecules

40
Q

What does CD8 recognize?

A

MHC-I molecules

41
Q

Do CD4 and CD8 play a role as co-stimulators?

A

No. They contribute to activating Signal 1 along with the TCR.

42
Q

Which molecules on CPAs work as co-stimulators?

A

B7 (CD80 and CD86)

their expression is up-regulated upon infection

43
Q

Which receptor do CD80 and CD86 on CPAs bind to?

A

CD28 receptor on T-cells

= signal 2

44
Q

What is the role of adherence molecules on T-cells? (ex: integrines)

A

Stabilize the interaction between T-cell & CPA (to allow sufficient stimulation to occur to activate T-cell)

45
Q

Quel est le rôle du ligand CD40 (CD40L) sur les lymphocytes T?

A

Lier récepteur CD40 sur les CPA

  • Stimulate APC expression of B7 + cytokine production
    = indirectement favoriser la différenciation des T-cells
46
Q

Pourquoi faut-il ajouter un adjuvant dans certains vaccins protéiques?

A

AG protéines: pas toujours suffisants pour déclencher réponses immunitaires dépendantes des T-cells (ce qui est nécessaire pour générer des cellules mémoires)

Adjuvant: induit l’expression de molécules de co-stimulation sur les CPA (ex: B7)

47
Q

What are the 2 primary lymphoid organs?

A
  • Thymus (for T-cell development)

- Bone marrow (for B-cell development)

48
Q

Name some secondary lymphoid organs

A
  • Spleen (rate)

- Lymph nodes (ganglions)

49
Q

T or F:

DC can phagocytose infected cells, and then present antigen peptides from these cells on their MHC-I

A

True! This is especially useful with infected cells that cannot display antigens (ex: RBC)

50
Q

Where do T-cells undergo (+) and (-) selection?

A

In the thymus

51
Q

Negative selection of T-cells

A

If TCR binds to self-antigen presented by MHC-I or MHC-II on thymic cell: T-cell will undergo apoptosis

52
Q

Positive selection of T-cells

A

CD8 and CD4 on T-cells = able to recognize and bind specifically to MHC-I and MHC-II (respectively)

Otherwise: T-cell will undergo apoptosis

53
Q

How does a T-cell become a CD4 or CD8 T-cell?

A

At first, after undergoing both + and - selection in the thymus, T-cells express both CD4 and CD8 co-receptors.

It is by CHANCE that they will interact more strongly with either MHC-I (= up-regulate CD8) or MHC-II (= up-regulate CD4). The other type of MHC will be down-regulated.

54
Q

Role of regulatory T-cells

A

Prevent auto-immune reactions

55
Q

Where are regulatory T-cells found

A

Corpuscule de Hassal (dans thymus)

56
Q

T or F: T-cells are made in the thymus

A

False

They are made in the red bone marrow
