Q
  • Cross reactivity: Good Ex? Bad Ex?
  • Instructional theory?
  • Clonal selection?
  • Allotypes?
  • Primary transcript made of? Then?
  • Class switching? Can only move? Can only change? Not?
  • 4 steps to increase Ab diversity?
  • V(D)J: Why is (D)
  • Somatic mutation: Passed on to children? How?
A
  • One Ab reacts with >1 antigen; Cowpox and small pox; Ab triggered then attacks heart
  • Abs conform to antigen
  • Cell makes Abs and not dependent on outside world
  • Lambda/Kappa L chain on diff. chrom.
  • VDJC M,D; delta or mu are spiced off
  • Start as IgM or IgD but can then switch, down stream (m,d,g,e,a); heavy chain C region, not light chain or variable
    1. ) 2000 genes (1k L, 1000 H)
    2. ) VDJ joining
    3. ) TdT adds/takes away
    4. ) VDJ hypermutable when dividing, C to U then removed and replaced
  • Variable light chains only have VJ
  • Not passed on; TdT and end joining

Q

T Cells:

  • TH1: Type? Release? Which attracts? These release? (2)
  • TH17: Make? Which attracts? Type? Implicated in?
  • TH2: Circulate? Secrete? (2) Attracts? Leads to? Gives rise to? Suppresses?
  • TfH: Some migrate to? Redirect B cells?
  • Treg: Suppress? Make? (2)
  • CTL: Help cells apoptose via? (2)
  • 4 markers and on what cells?
  • Lymphokine?
  • Chemokine?
  • Cytokine?
  • Mitogen? Specific? Binds? Not?
A
  • Proinflammatory; INFgamma; monocytes/macs (angry); TNFa and IL which increase inflammation
  • Proinflamm.; IL17; even angrier macs; auotiumm
  • Blood to find antigen; IL4 = chemotactic for eisono/suppress THI differ.; IL13 = M2 macs for healing; TH2 follciular cells push B cells to IgE
  • Cortex to help B cells; direct B cells to IgG,IgE, IgA
  • Other T cells; IGFbeta, IL10
  • 1.) Activate FAS (CD95) 2.) Secrete lytic granules
  • CD3 = All T cells; CD4= Th; CD8= CTL; CD20= B
  • Short range mediator made by lymphocytes
  • Signal by any cell that increase imflammation
  • Mediator by any cell that effects same or different cell type
  • Protein that stimulates T Cell division; no; CD3 ; binding site

Q
  • T Cell Receptors: Only see antigens via? Focus on? Structure?
  • Activation? (2 steps?)
  • TH cascade? (4)
  • CTL cascade? (4)
  • MHC 1?
  • MHC 2?
  • T dependent antigens?
  • T independent antigens? Often happens with? Not great with?
  • TfH and B cells cascade? (4)
  • Why is second exposure faster?
A
  • MHC; Cells surfaces not free antigen; a and B chain with 2 CDR’s x 2
  • 1.) Antigen with MHC presented 2.) 2nd signal from APC (IL12)
  • Antigen enters, Ingested by DC, Peptides placed on Class 2 MHC, TH recognizes
  • Protein made in cell, chopped to peptides, placed on class 1 MHC, CTL recognizes
  • On all nucleated cells
  • On DC’s, macs, B Cells
  • Exposed to antigen and multiple Abs produced
  • Don’t need T cells; carbs; peptide antigens
  • B cell binds epitope, endocytosed, peptide to MHC 2, TfH recognizes diff. epitope, releases helper lymphokines
  • 1st time DC’s must bring antigen; second time circulating t cells recognize antigen and respond

Q
  • Transplant:
  • Histocompatibility in humans? A/B? D(P,Q,R)? Located on what gene?
  • Alloantigen?
  • Haplotype?
  • Best donors: Must match? Why? Who is best match? Then? Parents?
  • Bone marrow transplant?
  • What is perfect match?
  • One way mixed leukocyte test? (3 steps)
  • Rejection pathway: Foreign mac with TH? Leads to release of? (2) CTL with any foreign cell?
  • HLA-DR3/4 related to?
  • How do T cells recognize foreign MHC?
A
  • HLA: Class 1 MHC all nucleated cells; Class 2 MHC B,Mac, DC; short arm Chrom. 6
  • Antigen that is part of self recognition system
  • Combo of alleles that are transmitted together; codominate presentation (1 from mom/dad)
  • HLA-DR; signals both responses; Identical twin; sibling (25%); only half similar
  • Should be higher match
  • 10/10 A,B,C, DR, DQ
  • T cells of donar are killed, Cells of both are mixed, check how many divisions occur
  • IL12 from foreign mac stimulates TH; IFNgamma (increased inflammation); IL2 (activates CTL)
  • Juvenile diabetes
  • Squeeze to fit in their MHC
