Lec 17: Dynamics of Adaptive Immunity Part 1 Flashcards
What occurs during the establishment of infection?
assessment by your immune system - the alarm stage
The inductive phase is also known as ______ phase
central
What occurs at the end of the effector phase?
shutdown/healing (chronic healing -> cancer)
What are protections against infection during local infection/penetration of epithelium?
- wound healing induced AMPs
- phagocytes
- complement
What are protections against infection during local infection of tissues?
- complement activation
- DC migrate to lymph nodes (can transfer antigen to a resident DC)
- Phagocyte and NK activation
- cytokine and chemokine production
What are protections against infection that occur during lymphatic spread?
- pathogen trapped and phagocytosed in lymphoid tissue
- adaptive immunity initiated by migrating DC cells
What protections against infection exist during adaptive immunity?
- infection cleared by specific antibody
- T cell dependent macrophage activation
- cytotoxic T cells
How do DCs know what to tell T cells?
the PRRs/TLRs that are engaged, based on evolution of microbes and evolution of the immune system, the “danger” signal, NK and memory CTLs “programming”
DCs are immature during ____
antigen uptake and information gathering
Maturation of DC involves
phenotypic changes, antigen uptake halts, migration to lymph node (CCR7)
Signal 0 is
environmental instruction (input signals to DC)
What provides signal 0 to DCs
exogenous: pathogen sending PAMPs
endogenous: NK, CTL, TH, other DC, tissue stroma, macrophages (sending DAMPs)
Signal ___ is dependent on signal 0
3
What do signals 1-4 tell T cells?
1 - what the issue is
2 - the level of danger
3 - type of response needed
4 - where the problem is
A ____ response relies on CD4 cells
CTL
The ____ cytokines made by CD4 cells drive CTL response
IL-2
DC becomes hyperactive through ____, which initiates signal 3 for CD8+ cells through the release of ____. Without it, CTL cells will not survive for very long.
CD40L,
IL-12
APC stimulation of CD4 cells induces ____. Stimulating _____ on APC increases B7 and 4-IBBL to costimulate _____.
CD40L
CD40
CD8 T cell
CD40L on T cells will help 4 types of cells in which ways
macrophages - clearance of internal pathogens (autophagy)
B cells - promote Ab production and type
Immature DC cells - promotes maturation
Mature DC cells - hyperactivates
