Lecture 3 Flashcards
the ability of lymphoctres to repeatedly home to secondary lymphoid organs, reside there transiently, and return to the blood
recirculation
the general process of leukocyte movement from blood into tissues
migration or recruitment
the migration of a leukocyte out of the blood and inot a particular tissue, or to a site of an infection or injury
leukocyte homing
the recruitment of leukoycytes and plasma proteins from the blood to sites of infection and tissue injury ina
major part of the porcess of inflammation
What is inflammation triggered by?
recognition of microbes and dead tissue in innate immune response
What delivers the cells and molecules of host defense to the sites where offending agents need to be combated?
inflmmatory response

ICAM-1(ICAM
A cascade of adhesive and activation events underlies the trafficking of all?
Subsets of circulation leukocytes
What can circulating leukocytes do?
Tether to and roll on the endothelium through transient interactions of seletins and integrin w their receptors
Rolling allows leukocytes to?
Sample the endothelium for chemokines
What activate integrins and trigger adhesioin to the endothelium
chemokines
What migraete across teh endothelium into the extravascular space?
adherent leukocytes
When leukocytes arive at extrvascular space,
leukocytes can migrate down chemokine gradients toward specific areas
What constatnly ciruclate through the blood, into tissues and often back into the blood again?
immune cells
What are activated by ctyokines secreted by resident Mo and mast cells at sites of infection and tissue injury?
endothelial cells
What is the result of activated cytokines for increased adhesion?
increased adhesiveness of the endothelial cells for ciruclating myeloid leukocytes and Ag activated effector and memory lymphocytes
What require the temporary adhesion of the leukocyte to the endothelial cells of blood vessels?
leukocyte/lymphocyte homing
What does homing involve?
molecules on the surfaces of both the leukocytes(homing receptors and chemokine receptors) and endothelia cells(chemokines)
What comprise a set of several adhesion molecules on the surface of endothelial cells which regulate lymphocyte recirculation via HEV?
addressins
What express P selectin(CD62P) and E selectin (CD62E)
endothelial cells
What is synthesized and expressed on the endothelial cell surface within 1 to 2 hours in response to the cytokines IL1 and TNF?
E selectin
What is produced by tissue macrophages in response to infections?
IL1 and TNF
What are the ligans for E selectins and P selectins?
complex sialylated carbohydrates
What is ONLY expressed on leukocytes adn lymphocytes but not on endothelial cells?
L selectins(CD62L)
What is L selection expression activated by?

What are integrins?
hetrodimeric cell surfac proteins
-composed of two noncovalently linked polypeptide chains
What doe integrins do?
mediate adhesion of cells to other cells or to extracellular matrix
How do integrins mediate adhesion?
vaious specific ligands
What cause integrate signals?
extracellular ligands with cytoskeleton dependent motility, shape change, and phagocytic responds
How are integrins able to response to intracellular signals?
by rapidly increasing their affinity for their ligands(integrin activation)
Integrin activation that occurs in all leukocyres is in response to?
chemokine binding to chemokine receptors
in T lymphocytes integrin activation occurs>?
when Ag binds to TCRs
What is integrin activation mediated by?
chemokine-induced conformational changes in teh extracellular domains of the integrins that lead to increased affinity
Why type of chemokine signaling leads to increased affinity?
inside-out signaling, which is involved in intgrin activation
The inegrins on blood leukocytes are nomrally
in a low affinity state
