Q

Classical Macrophage activation steps

A

1) Macrophage ingests pathogen
2) Macrophage presents antigens from pathogen on cell surface (MHC 2)
3) TH1 T Cells binds to presented antigen
4) Th1 produces CD40L and IFN-gamma
5) CD40L binds to macrophage CD40 together with IFN-gamma causes macrophage to produce substances that kill the pathogen

17
Q

Th2 cells inhibit ______ and instead stimulate ______________

A

Th2 cells inhibit classical macrophage activation and instead stimulate the alternative macrophage pathway

18
Q

Alternative macrophage activation purpose

A

Tissue repair, enhanced fibrosis

19
Q

What stimulates naive CD4+ cells to become Th2 cells?

A

IL-4

20
Q

IFN-Gamma inhibits

A

Th2 and Th17 cell production

21
Q

Lepromatous leprosy is associated with

A

Decreased Th1 activation

22
Q

Tuberculoid leprosy is associated with

A

Increased Th1 activation

23
Q

Defensin production is stimulated by

A

IL-22 from Th17 cells

24
Q

IL-17 induces

A

Chemokine production which in turn recruits leukocyte

25
Q

Th17 development from naive CD4+ cells comes from

A

Cytokines produces by dendritic cells

26
Q

What happens when a CD8+ cytotoxic T cell binds to an infected cell?

A

1) Exocytosis of CD8+ granules into synapse
2) Perforin granules open cell membrane
3) Granzymes enter the cell
4) Granzymes activate caspases
5) Caspases induce apopstosis
