Immuno receptor and cell type roles Flashcards
CD3 role
on T cells
T cell differentiation and activation
T cell receptors
TCR
interacts with MHC II
MHC class I
present endogenous Ags to Tc cells (viruses)
on all nucleated cells
recognized by CD8
MHC class II
present exogenous Ags to Th cells (bacteria/etc)
in all Ag presenting cells (APCs)
recognized by CD4
Cell type with CD4
T helper cells
Cell type with CD8
Cytotoxic T cells (CTLs)
Th0 cells
can differentiate into Th1 or Th2
Th1 cells
cell mediated immunity
CD8 (CTL’s) delayed hypersensitivity
downregulates Th2 cells
Th2 cells
humoral immunity
stimulate Ab production
class switching
downregulates Th1 cells
Treg cells
limits activation of T cells
Th17 cells
clearance of pathogens not handled by Th1 or Th2 cells
potent inflammatory/autoimmunity
