The three parts of the white pulp have what

A

Red Pulp deals with dead red blood cells

White pulp has the marginal zone, PALS, Primary Follicles, Germinal Center -> primary follicles

PALS is the T-cells

Marginal Zone is the B1 cells (little help with T-cells)

31
Q

The lymph node has what parts?

A

32
Q

The lymph node, in the cortex has what?

In the paracortex?

In the Medulla?

A

Cortex has the Germinal Centers -> primary follicles, at which point the macrophages, dendritic cells show B-cells in the cortex

Can show antigen to T cells in the paracortex

Paracortex is T cells

Medulla is the B-cells, T-cells, medulla, and plasma cells (help make antibodies)

33
Q

What are located in villi of the small intestine to move nutrients through the lymph?

What is at the top of the Peyer’s patch? What does this do or contain?

A

intraeptihelial lymphocytes

M-cell, the pinocytosis of the gut, contains gamma delta T cells

34
Q

The appendix is commonly removed or thought to be useless, why is it smart to hang onto this secondary lymphoid tissue?

A

The appendix has the “seeds” for the body’s normal flora

35
Q

The thoracic duct drains into where?

The right lymphatic duct drains into where?

When a cell wants to go through from blood to lymph, what must it travel through?

A

Thoracic duct drains into the left subclavian vein

Right Lymphatic duct drains into the right subclavian vein

A lymph node

36
Q

In the human body, if there are high lymphocytes, what could it be?

If their are low lymphocytes, what could it be?

A

High: Leukemia

Low: HIV

37
Q

What type of T cells are not selected by the thymus?

What type of T cells are selected by the thymus?

A

an immune response (humoral or cell-mediated) generating substance. It is recognized as foreign has a certain degree of chemical complexity has a molecular mass usually in excess of 5 kD

A

Immunogen

49
Q

substance capable of binding specifically with the final products of the immune response effectors generated by an immunogen

A

antigen

50
Q

that portion of an antigen that binds specifically to the recognition molecules of the immune system (secreted antibodies or membrane receptors)

A

Epitope/antigenic determinant

51
Q

a small molecule which can function as an antigen, but which is incapable, by itself, of inducing an immune response. (A hapten is NOT an immunogen)

A

Hapten

52

molecules which interact with the immune response to make a molecule that is weakly antigenic, more antigenic

A

Adjuvants

53
Q

What three things define an immunogen?

and autoimmune disease, what would that be?

A

B1 cells

57
Q

What three things do B cells do that T cells cannot?

A

NO class switching (replacement of heavy chain constant region)

NO somatic hypermutation -> while bound to an antigen move bases around to bind better

TdT activity during both α, β chains (vs heavy chain only with Ig)

58
