Effector Mechanisims Of T Cell Mediated Immunity (Ch. 6) Flashcards
Th1 cells activate a what response
Cell mediated
Th2 cells activate what type of response
Ab-mediated
Th 17 cells activate what type of response
Inflammatory and anti-bacterial
What is the role of Th1
Promoting tumor immunity
Destroying intracellular pathogens
Driving autoimmunity
What is the role of Th2
Destroying parasites
Allergies
Asthma
What is the role of Th17
Controversial tumor immunity
Breaking immune tolerance
destroying Extracellular bacteria
Autoimmunity
Define how T-Cell cytokines usually work on effector cells
Either autocrine - on the same cell that produced the cytokine
Or
On nearby cells - paracrine
What is the action of IL-2
T-cell proliferation
What is the action of IFN - y
Activation of macrophages
What is the action of IL-4
B cell switching to IgE
What is the action of IL-5
Activation of Eos
What is the action of IL-17
Stimulation of acute inflammation
What is the action of IL-22
Maintenance of epithelial barriers
What is the role of TGF-B
Inhibition of T Cell activation
What is the role of IL-13
Stimulates mucus secretion and peristalsis and expulsion of parasites
