lecture 4: innate immunity (part 1) Flashcards
chemokines binding to _____ activates integrins
CCR7
Effector T cell migration into peripheral tissues is mediated by…
E-selectine and P selectin, integrins and chemokine (CXCL10) that are produced at sites of infection
what ligand does L-selectin bind to and what is the function of this pair
PNAd: initial weak adhesion of naive T cells to HEV in lymph node
what ligand does CCR7 bind to and what is the function of this pair
CCL19/21; activation of integrins and chemokinesis
what ligand does LFA-1 bind to and what is the function of this pair
ICAM-1; stable arrest on HEV in lymph node
what ligand does CXCR5 bind to and what is the function of this pair
CXCL10; Activation of integrins and chemokinesis
what ligand doesCCR5 bind to and what is the function of this pair
CCL4; activation of integrins and chemokinesis
what is CD44 important for
mobilization of effector T cells in sites of infection and inflammation; can mediate rolling interactions with vascular endothelial cells that express HA, its natural ligand or E-selectin
what does engagement of CD44 with HA trigger
GPCT-dependent inside-out up regulation of VLA-4-VCAM binding
what chemokine receptor do B cells express as they mature
CXCR5
what does the homing process of Naive B cells require
CXCL12 and CCL19/21 on HEV and their receptors CXCR4 and CCR7 on naive B cells
what is the role of NK cells as circulating effector cells
lysis of infected cells, activation of macrophages
what is the role of complement as circulating effector proteins
killing of microbes, opsonization of microbes, activation of leukocytes
what is the role of mannose-binding lectin as a circulating effector protein
opsonization of microbes activation of lectin pathway (complement system)
what is the role of TNF, IL-1 and chemokines
inflammation
what is the role of IFN-alpha and beta as cytokines
resistance to viral infection
what is the role of INF-gamma as a cytokine
macrophage activation
