immune Flashcards
DR, DP, DQ
MHC II
T cell require (2) things for activation
- Antigen presentation
2. Co-stimulation
Alpha chain associated with B2 macro globulin
MHC-II
Made of alpha and beta chains
MHC-II
MISFOLDED PROTEIN
MHC-I
Cross presentation
Taking outside , but showing them as if they were inside . Needed to activate CD8
Activates a CD4+ T-cell
CD40 (DC)
CD40-L (T-cell)
Promotes interactions with stromal cells for development of thymocytes.
SCF and IL-7
TCR must (2)
- Interact w/ MHC
2. Not interact w/host epitope
Committed marker of double negative T-cell precursor
CD2
Once the beta portion of a T-cell is made, the T cell is
Double positive
Three things that dominate the double positive state
- Thymocyte has a functional beta chain
- Thomcyte expresses both CD8 and CD4
- Signals for rearrangement of alpha. If it cant, it will die or make delta gamma.
Pos selection
Does the T cell interact with host MHC.
If no. .. dead
Neg selection
Does the TCR recognize the epitope in the MHC molecule. The only epitope presented in the thymus are our own proteins. SO if it does recognize it, it will die.
T cell dies if
It has a strong aff for host MHC
Responds to host peptides
Naive T cells become activated in
Secondary lymphoid tissue
CD4 and CD8 help
interact with MHC for stabilization
CD3 complex and Zeta chains
signal
Three steps needed for T-cell activation
- See the epitope in the MHC
- Costimulation
- Proliferation (IL-2)
Requires for costimulation of T cells
CD28 on T cell bonds with CD80/86 (B7) on APC. If this does not happen, then T cell will become anergia or die.
Negative costimulatory molecules
CTLA-1 and PD-1
Moderate aff IL-2 receptor
beta , gamma
High aff IL-2
beta , gamma, alpha
-once CD28 interacts with CD80/86, then alpha comes in and in part of IL-2. =CD25 ,= clonal expansion.
Activation of CD8 T cells
- Naive cell interacts with DC in secondary lymphoid tissue , this requires Th cell help.
- At infected site, activated CTL recognizes a target cell displaying the correct MHC, peptide-J
- CTL is primed, by APC by CD28 and the epitope.
Prime in secondary tissue
Kill in the infected site
Expresses FOXP3
IL-10 and TGFB
Influcences IL-17
IL-23
Induces eiosinphil or Th2 activation
IL-4, IL-5, IL-13
Activates B cell and macrophages
CD40-L (on T cells)
CD40 on (B cells _
Alpha chain of IL-2 receptor
CD4/CD25
Induces germinal center formation of B-cells
IL-21 and IL-6
Memory T cells have no
CD28
Mast cells activated by
TLRs
Binding of TLR induces
NFKB
Form multi-metic complex , (1)
Cleaves to produce (2)
- NLRs
2. IL-1 and IL-18
