Chaper 8 Flashcards
Which anatomical sites do naive TC encounter antigen
At the start of the primary immune response
In a secondar lymphoid node
Why are dendritic cells more efficient than macrophages?
DC are migratory and transport antigen to neighboring secondary lymphoid tissue
Which selectin has a role in circulation of TC b/w blood and lymphoid tissues
L-selectin binds to carbs in hEV
3 types :
GLYCSM-1
CD34
3 classes of effector TC
Cytotoxic TC
Th1
TH2
TC activation= TCA is what?
Referred to as the priming an is the first stage of a primary adaptive immune response
What are the events of T-lymphocyte Imm?
Priming of naive TC
Activation of TC
Response of activated T helper and T cytotoxic
Printing of naive TC is analogous to?
what of BC activation by FDC
What does dendritic cells link?
Innate and adaptive imm sys.
What is priming most often initiated by?
Dendritic cells
Where do dendritic cells reside?
In the epithelial cells
Langerhand cells - spec in the skin
Where for priming occur at?
Lymph node the nearest one
2nd tissue
How does the dendritic cell work?
Engulfs -bac,virus,proteins etc
Does antigen capture
What is antigen capture?
AC is what dendritic cells do they
- phagocytosis
- recept mediated endocytosis
- macro-pintocytosis
What is the major function of DC?
Trigger TC response
What mcH does DC express?
Both!
What receptors do DC have?
Mannose
TLR
What does AC lead to?
Maturation into APC
Activation of DC means what additional?
Pro inflam cytokines
- TNF
- IL-1
DC activation causes….
No longer able I further engulf more antigens
Activation of DC does…
Increase mHc II
Migration of lymph node expresses ccr7
Cytokines receptor
Activation of DC summary
Pro inflamm cytokines
-TNF, IL-1
No longer engulf role has changed to priming
Increase MHC II
Migration of LN
- expression of CCR7
- cytokines receptor for CCL21 made in 2LN
How does the naive TC enter LN?
Via afferent lymph vessel
From bv pass through HEV
What chemokine attracts naive TC into LN?
CCL18- secreted by DC
Function of CCL18
Gets naive to the right place
What does CCL19&21 function?
Cause the DC leave the draining lymph and enter draining lymph
What chemokine a are secreted by stromal cells and DC?
CCL21&19
What is the receptor that binds to CCL21&19?
CCR7
CCL21& 19 are bound to what?
HEV where they establish a concentration grad along the endothelial surface
What are the Homing cytokines in the LN ?
CCL21&19
In the LN cortex
Homing of TC to LN adhesion molecules are what?
TC =L-selectin
HEV adhesion molecules
CD34 & GlyCAM-1
Adhesion molecules cause what to happen to the TC?
Causes the naive TC to slow down & attach to the HEV
What is apart of the afferent lymphatics?
Mature DC can’t home through blood
Up regulated CCR7 in response to inflammation
Who does LFA-1 strength hold to?
ICAM
What are the steps of homing TC to LN?
- The binding of L-selectin to slow naive TC down
- The binding of CCR7: CCR19 or 21
- Tight adhesion between LFA-1 and ICAM-1
- Diapedesis- lymphocytes leaves blood and enters LN
What is on the DC?
lFA-1 & ICAM-1
What happens if the TC encounters matching antigen?
Intracellular signaling
Weak binding - strong binding lFA-1 binds tightly to ICAm-1
Then the TC remains in LN attached to DC to becomes primed”
What type of change does the TCR send to LFA-1?
Conformational change to increase the affinity and prolongs the cell-cell contact
What happens then of TC does not meet antigen
TC dissociates from DC - no strong binding
It leaves via efferent vessel to keep searching
Because naive TC can. Survive for years
Will still undergo occasional replication
What are the two signals that are needed for priming events?
TCR-peptide/ CD-MHC
Co stimu by B7 (only on DC )
What does B7 express and bind to?
Expressed by only APC
Initiation by infection
B7 binds to CD28 on naive TC
What do the two activations signals for priming to occur do?
TC prolifer and activation
Need both to happen at the same time on same cell
Recap of receptors
What’s on CD4 helper T ?
CD4 TCR CD3 Zeta CD28 LFA-1
What is CD 4?
Signal transduction
What Is TCR ?
Antigen recognition
What are the signal transduction molecules?
CD3
Zeta
CD28
What is the adhesion molecule on CD4?
LFA-1
What’s is expressed on MHC II?
B7
ICAM-1
What binds to what?
CD4 helper T lymphocytes binds to ligand in mHc expressing APC
TCR-MHC II
CD28-B7
LFA-1 to iCAM-1
Name the 3 types of APC
DC
Macrophages
BC
Where are macrophages located?
Cortex and medulla
They hang out where they are
They prevent systemic infection
Can present to TC in the peripheral tissue only in the LN
What types of cells do macrophages present peptides to ?
Already primed TC
What do macrophages present in the presence of infecTion?
They induce B7 a co stimulation needed for TC proliferation
If the macrophage is outside the 2nd lymph will it activate TC?
No! Only in LN it will
Where is DC found?
Only in cortical TC area
macro an DC come from what?
The same lineage
BC is what type of effectiveness of an APC?
The least !
Does not express co-stim
Needs to be activated by TC
Present via mHc II
