Lec 9 Cell Cell Interactions Signaling & Activation Flashcards
best antigen presenting cells
dendritic
recognition by helper t cells requires macrophages and is restricted by the blank products
class 2 mhc
to get an immune response, both blank cells are required
T and B
the 2 signals required for b cell activation
one from antigen, one from t helper cell (usually cd40)
t and b cells cooperate and form a blank effect
synergistic
steps in b/t cell interactions
- recognition of antigen by B cells via surface ig
- b cell presentation to t cells
- t cell secretion of cytokines which promote b cell growth/differentiation
icam stands for
cellular adhesion molecule
icams are on the surface to hold these together during interaction
t/b cells
central interaction of b and t cells occurs between these
TCR, MHC
ligand for TCR
MHC + antigen
activation of t cells is similar to b cells such as signaling cascades but the blank is different
antigen
Th1 and Th2 are blank cells
cytokine secreting
Th1 triggers blank response
cell mediated
Th2 triggers blank response
antibody mediated
