Chapter 6 pt 1 Flashcards
location of dendritic cells
in epithelia, lymphoid organs and most tissue
role of NK cells
early protection against many viruses and intracellular bacteria
innate lympohid cells
look like lymphocytes but have features of innate immunity
plasma proteins
complement
mannose binding lectin
CRP
lung surfactant
complement system innate and adaptive
innate by alternative and lectin path
adapative uses classical pathway by recognizing microbes coated with Abs
TLRs signal via NF-Kb and what else
Interferon regulatory factors which stimulates the production of antiviral cytokines (type 1 interferons)
NLR signal via what and can play a role in what
inflammasome pathway
gout
obesity associated type 2 diabetes
atheroscelrosis
inflammasome pathway
1) NLRP3 recognizes pathogenic bacteria or extracell ATP
2) recruit adapter protein (X2) and inactivated caspase-1 (X2)
3) caspase-1 becomes activated and cleaves Pro-IL1B to IL-1B
4) IL-1B secreted and causes accute inflammation and fever
where is C-type lectin receptors located and on which cells
what does it detect
on PM of macrophages and dendritic cells
detects fungal glycans and elicit inflammatory reactions
G protein coupled receptors that recog microbes are on what cells
and recognize what microbes
neutrophils macrophages and most leukocytes
recognize bacterial peptides containing N-FMEt
B lymphocyte functions
neutralization of microbe with Abs
phagocytosis
complement activation
helper T cell function
activation of macrophages
inflammation
prolif and diff of T and B cells
what is clonal selection
when a lymphyocyte is exposed and responds to one antigen it undergoes this and proliferates
-all the “clones” recognize the same antigen
lymphocyte diversity: enzymes that are recomb
RAG-1 and RAG-2
majority of lymphocytes in blood and tissue are
T lymphocytes
TCR 2 types
95% are made up of a and B polypeptide chain
small population are yd
what do yd TCR receptors recognize
- where do they aggregate
- assistance or no assistance MHC proteins
Lipids, peptides, and small molecules
without assistance from MHC proteins
aggregatie at epithelial surfaces
NK T cells recognize what dsiplayed by what
glycolipids displayed by MHC like molecule CD1
which is more prevelenat CD4 or CD8
CD4: 60%
CD8: 30%
innate lymphoid cells produce what cytokines
IFN-y
IL-5
IL-17
IL-22
functions of innate lymphoid cells
early defense against infections
recognize and eliminate stressed cells
provide cytokines that influence differntiation of T lympocytes
what are innate lymphoid cells
populations of lymphocytes that lack TCRs but produce cytokines similar to T cells
NK cells are first defined
what happens in the bone marrow
production of all blood cells and where B lymphocytes mature
what is the main fnct of peripheral lymphoid organs
concentrate antigens, APCs, and lymphocytes in same spot
-optimizes interactions amoung these cells
dendritic cells and LN
dendritic cells pick up and transport antigens of microbes from epithelia and tissue via lymphatic vessels to lymph nodes. migrate to T cell zones and present them to T cells
in the spleen antigens are trapped by ____ and ___
macrophages and dendritic cells
recognize bloodborne antigens
where are 1/2 of the body’s lymphocytes
what types of cells are many of these
in the mucosal tissues, many are memory cells
what do B cell receptors recognize
proteins, polysaccharides and lipids
