Q

activation of naive T cell steps (6)

A

1) antigen presenting cells recognize extracellular antigen
2) antigen is ingested
3) antigen is broken down in endosome
4) MHC II + antigens fuse
5) cleave antigens
6) antigen expressed on cell surface through MHC II
7) dendritic cell goes to lymph node to find its T cell receptor
8) T

Q

Treg

A

maintain tolerance to bacteria so we are not responding to the microbiome all the time
- important in small intestine

Q

what happens when naive CD4 T helper cell gets cytokined from APCs?

Q

T helper cell activation of humoral immunity steps

A

1) B cell goes to lymph node to find its T cell match using T cell receptors
2) T cell & B cell bind and send messages to each other
3) T cell secretes cytokines to tell B cell what antibodies to make
4) B cell is now activated
5) B cell can undergo clonal expansion to make plasma cells or can make memory cells

16
Q

T or F: T cells must be activated in order to activate the B cells

A

T

17
Q

antibody vs humoral immunity

A

antibody- differentiate based on effector functions
humoral- make antibodies that bind to proteins & cells

18
Q

cytotoxic T cells can bind directly on what cells

A

non-immune

19
Q

activation of cellular immunity

A

forms 3 cell cluster
- clonal expansion of T helper & cytotoxic T cells
- produce effector cytotoxic T cells

20
Q

3 cell cluster components

A

1) APC
2) T helper cell
3) Cytotoxic T cells

21
Q

activation of cytotoxic T cells in the 3 cell cluster

A

cytotoxic t cell has its own T cell receptor that is specific for antigen & MHC I
1) T cell meets with its antigen = T helper cell is activated
2) activated T helper cell can activate B cells & cytotoxic T cells
3) secreted cytokines activate the cytotoxic T cell
4) proliferation = effector & memory cells produced

22
Q

perforins

A

holes in cell membrane

23
Q

granzyme

A

induce apoptosis

24
Q

antigen specific immune response steps

A

1) activated cytotoxic T cells look for foreign antigens
2) T cell receptor binds MHC I & its antigen
3) secretes perforins
4) secrete granzymes
5) infected cells are killed but neighbouring, uninfected cells are not

25
Q

what are cytotoxic T cells activated by

A

T helper cells

26
Q

what MHC class do T helper & cytotoxic T cells recognize?

A

helper- MHC II
cytotoxic- MHC I
