Q

Antigen recognition site for TH2 response?

A

MHC Class II located on APC (B cell)

25
Effector action of TH2 response?
Activation of B cell to make antibody
26
Roles of IFN-γ
1. Induce expression of vascular adhesion molecules | 2. Activate macrophages --> leads to increased release of inflammatory molecules.
27
Tb Granuloma (example of inflammation induced by TH1 response to M. tuberculosis) causes what in lungs?
lose ability to exchange gas in alveolar sacs
28
What are the two different forms of leprosy?
Tuberculoid leprosy; Lepromatous leprosy
29
Immune Deviation... | Tuberculoid Leprosy
Induce appropriate TH1 response. Low infectivity. Inflammation destroys tissue and induces nerve damage --> Lose sensitivity to touch. Normal serum Ig levels.
30
Lepromatous leprosy
Unusual form of disease. Wrong TH2 immune response. High infectivity. Can't control bacterial growth due to wrong response. Leprosy isn't dangerous but develop other infections.
31
Which cytokines are prominent in TH1 response to tuberculosis leprosy? Lepromatous?
IL-2, IFN-γ, TNF-β No IL-2, IFN-γ Important to know that IL-4,IL5 prominent in TH2 response to Lepromatous but not tuberculoid.
32
Response to parasite Leishmania?
TH1. Release of IFN-γ kills parasite.
33
What species of in-bred mouse make a TH2 response incorrectly to Leishmania, leading to detrimental effects?
BALB-C; Make IL-4 instead of IFN-γ; leads to much larger lesions
34
Another source of IFN-γ
Cytotoxic T Cells
35
Example of worm infection
Schistosomiasis eggs induce TH2 response in the form of TH2 granulomas
36
Response to worm infections?
TH2 response
37
Presence of this lymphocyte allude to worm infection
Eosinophil
38
What is a granuloma?
Collection of immune cells resulting from inflammation.
39
Undifferentiated T cell path to TH1
Undifferentiated T cell + IL-12--> TH1 Cell via T-bet --> IFN-γ (Defense against intracellular pathogens)
40
Undifferentiated T cell path to TH2
Undif. T cell + IL-4 --> TH2 Cell via GATA-3 --> IL-4 | defense against parasites, worms, also allergies
41
Undifferentiated T cell path to TH17
Undif. T cell + IL-23 + IL-1--> TH17 cell via ROR-γT--> IL-17 (Defense against extracellular bacteria, autoimmunity, yeast, cancer)
42
Undifferentiated T cell path to Treg
Undif T cell + TGF-β1--> Treg via Foxp3--> TGF-β1 | (Immunosuppression) without Treg we get autoimmunity
43
IL-12 induces
TH1 cell
44
IL-4 induces
TH2 cell
45
IL-23 and IL-1 induce
TH17
46
Where does inducing cytokines come from?
APC sees TLR to induce activated APC to release IL-12
47
subunits of IL-23
p40/p19
48
subunits of IL-12
p40/p35
49
What is IL-1 released thru?
caspase-1 via inflammasome activation
50
What does IL-1 recruit
PMN to induce inflammation
51
How are reactive oxygen and nitrogen species produced?
T cell activates macrophage
52
Why do you lose nerve damage from tuberculoid leprosy
Quick TH1 response facilitating localized inflammation/granulomas
53
T/F The wrong immune response is seen in Tuberculoid leprosy
F; seen in lepromatous leprosy
54
IFN-gamma has what effect on macrophages infected by Leishmania?
macrophages kill Leishmania via cell-mediated immunity
55
Why do BALB/c inbred mice exhibit large lesions from Leishmania major?
They make IL-4 (TH2 response) and not TL-12 (TH1)
56
Schistosomiasis eggs are what type of antigen?
Worm--> TH2 --> Granuloma
57
What is the master transcription factor for Treg
Foxp3
58
What happens without Treg?
Autoimmunity
