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
What is the common marker for all T Cells
CD3
What is the second signal to encourage proliferation fo CD8 into CTL
CD28 - CD80
Define cross presentation
- Cells infected with intracellular microbes are ingested by DC’s
- Extracellular Ags are processed and presented as MHC II, AND MHC I
2a. This is due to come Ag being leaked out into cytosol of DC - DC presents Ag via MHC I/II and thus activates CTL as well as CD4
Perforins are homologous with what
C9 compliment protein
Granzyme B activates what in the cell
Caspase-3
How do mycobacteria evade the immune system
Inhibition of phagolysosome fusion
How does HSV evade the immune system
Inhibition of Ag presentation; HSV interferes with TAP transporter
How does CMV inhibit Immune system response
Inhibition of protease activity and removal of class I MHC from ER
How does EBV interfere with immune system
Inhibition of protease activity
