Chapter 6 Flashcards
NK T cells
recognize glycolipids displayed by MCH like molecule CD1
CD40
expressed on B cells
NK cells
express CD16 and CD56
CD16
on NK cells
FcR for IgG
Ab dependent cell mediated cytotoxcity (ADCC)
NKG2D
family which activates NK cells
CD94 family of lectins
inhibit NK cells
cytokines which stimulate NK cell proliferations
IL2, 15
cytokines which stimulate NK activation
IL12, also stimulated the release of IFN-y
Class I HLA
A,B,C
heterodimer of polymorphic alpha (heavy) chain and non-polymorphic beta 2-microglobulin chain
Alpha divided into 1,2,3
alpha 1 and 2 make polymorphic peptide binding cleft
display internal Ags like viruses
Class II HLA
P,Q,R
dimer of alpha and beta chains, both polymorphic
alpha 1 and beta 1 create polymorphic peptide binding cleft
present extracellular stuff that has been internalized and processed like bacteria
activated CD4 cells
secrete IL2 and express high affinity IL2Rs
IL2 acts as GF in autocrine loop
display CD40L which bind CD40 on B cells and Macrophages
TH1
secrete IFN-y
TH2
secrete IL4 -> B cells -> IgE plasma cells and IL 5 -> Eos
TH17
IL17- neutraphils and monocytes
class switching
induced by IFN-y and IL4
Type I hypersensativity reaction
aka immediate hypersensitivity TH2,IgE -> mast cells -> inflammation occurs w/in minutes allergies systemic or local
initial reaction in type I
vasodilation, vascular leakage, smooth m contraction, glandular secretions
late phase reaction in type I
begins in 2-24 hours, can last for days
infiltration of Eos, neturophils, basophils, monocytes, and CD4 cells -> tissue damage
IL3,5, GM-CSF all promote survival of eos
IL5 most potent stimulator of eos
secretagoges of mast cells
IgE, C5a, C3a, codeine, morphine, adenosine, mellitin, heat, cold, sunlight
leukotrienes
C4,D4- most potent vasoactive and spasmotic agents
B4-chemotactic for neutrophils, eos, and monocytes
extreme temperature or exercise hypersenativites
not mediated by TH2 or IgE
non-atopic allergy
Type II hypersensativity
aka Ab mediated
transfusion reactions, hemolytic disease of newborn, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, drug reactions (haptens)
type III hypersensativity
aka immune complex mediated
elicit inflammation at site of deposition
systemic immune complex disease
acute serum sickness
morphology of type III
acute necrotizing vasculitis
intense neutrophil infiltration
fibrinoid necrosis
