Main Microbial Killing by Phagocytes
Utility of Reactive Oxygen and Nitrogen Species:
[Backgroung: Free radicals are highly reactive.]
1. NADPH oxidase enzyme makes O(2-) (superoxide) targeted into the phagosome or into extracellular space. Then, non-enzymatic reactions of O(2-) generate: H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), HO (hydroxyl radical)
2. NO- is made by inducible誘導型 nitric oxide synthase一氧化氮合成酶.
95
Other means of attack to kill microbial by phagocytes
1. Degradative enzymes: lysozyme attacks proteoglycan in the cell wall & acid proteases degrade proteins
2. Antimicrobial Peptides (positively charged peptides that attack bacterial cell wall)
3. Other proteins bind and sequester iron, that is essential to bacteria
96
Granules
顆粒
97
Features of Neutrophils
1. strucuture: Multi-lobed nucleus + cytoplasmic granules (with antimicrobial peptides, lysozyme, degradative enzymes)
2. Short-lived, and many die at the site of infection, contributing to pus formation. In the process of dying they can release DNA and anti-bacterial proteins which together trap and kill organisms.
98

100
Location of Mast cells
in the tissues near blood vessel
101
histamine
組織胺
102
The function of Mast cells
1. Release histamine which causes inflammation, increases vessel permeability and attracts leukocytes.
2. Related to allergy
103
serum proteins
血清蛋白
104
cascade
serum proteins of Complement are activated one by one
105
Three classical pathway of complement activation
1. Classical pathway : antibody bound to the pathogen surface
2. Mannose-binding lectin pathway: Binds to sugar molecules on the surface of pathogens
3. Alternative pathway: Direct recognition of bacterial surface by complement proteins
106
Function of inflammation
1. attract and activate immune cells
2. prevent the spread of infection
3. initiate tissue repair
107
Inflammation can be initiated by:
(i) Cell damage - release of molecules from damaged cells – “danger signals”
(ii) Recognition of pathogen molecules
108
Extravasation
免疫反应过程，白血球能够离开血管，进入受损或感染的组织，以进行免疫防御和修复
1. Receive message
2. Rolling on the inner wall of blood vessels
3. Adhesion附著 to the vessel wall.
4. Transendothelial跨內皮 migration
5. Chemotaxis towards source of infection
6. Phagocytosis of invading organisms
109
Pathogen Recognition Receptors(PAMPs)
• PAMPs include many bacterial and yeast cell wall products, bacterial and viral DNA, and viral RNA
• These are recognised by Pathogen Recognition Receptors (PRR) on innate immune cells.
110
Toll-like Receptors (TLRs)
• Key receptors for Pathogen Recognition Receptors(PAMPs) expressed by innate immune cells
• Some are expressed on the cell surface, and some within the endosomal/phagosomal system
111
Function of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL)
kill infected cells
112
The function of helper T cells (Th)
1. help B cells make antibody
2. help macrophages kill phagocytosed organisms
113
The function of B cell
make antibodies
114
antigen
抗原a molecule against which B and T cells generate a response.
115
B cell receptor
Just antibody
B cells recognise antigens through B cell receptor (BCR). The BCR is later produced as a secreted form, which is antibody (also known as immunoglobulin - Ig).
116
immunoglobulin (Ig)
免疫球蛋白(Ig)
Activated B cells secrete “antibodies”
117
Two parts for antibody
“Fc”: constant
“Fab”: variable
118
Consequences of Antigen Recognition by T and B cells
1. Proliferation: clonal selection or clonal expansion.
2. Differentiation
• B and T cells develop mature“effector” cell function.
• B cells become antibody-secreting “plasma cells”
• T cells become CTL or T helper cells
• Some T and B cells become long-lived memory cells
119
Progenitor cell
祖細胞
120
Clonal Expansion
1st generation: Progenitor cell - Receptor variability generated during development
2nd generation:
- Lymphocyte pool with different Ag specificity
- Removal of self-reactive lymphocytes leads to self tolerance
3nd generation: Recognition of foreign antigen by mature naïve lymphocytes and clonal expansion
Receptor variability generated during development
121
How do B and T Cells make so many different Antigen Receptors?
B and T cell genes rearrange during development, randomly combining different gene segments to generate variable receptors.
122
Neutralisation
中和作用
antibody binding to virus can block entry into cells. Antibody can also neutralise bacterial toxins (e.g. tetanus toxin) and prevent effects on cells
123
Some Ways in Which Antibodies Act:
1. Neutralisation
2. Opsonisation
3. Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity.
4. Activation of classical pathway of complement system –lysis, opsonisation, inflammation
5. Triggering of mast cells to release histamine
124
Antibody 5 Classes
vary by the use of different heavy chain constant regions – IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, IgE
125
class switching of antibody
B cells can switch from making one class of antibody to another, but it does not change the antigen specificity of the antibody
126
IgM
First class produced in response to a new Ag. Activates complement well. Can be pentameric.
127
IgG
Major Ig in blood, crosses placenta胎盤 into fetus胎兒.
128
IgA
Present in tears, saliva, mucus, milk as well as blood. Protects mucous membranes and infants. Can be dimeric二聚體.
129
IgE
Activation of Mast cells, basophils - allergy and anti-helminth (worm parasite) responses
130
IgD
Primarily B cell surface bound – function not well understood
131
affinity
親和力
132
fluorescently-labelled
螢光標記
133
CD4 marker
a surface protein
T helper (Th) cells have
(i) help B cells make antibody – Th2 subset are good at this
(ii) activate macrophages to kill ingested organisms – Th1 subset are good at this
134
Th2 subset of CD4 maker
help B cells make antibody
135
help B cells make antibody
activate macrophages to kill ingested organisms
136
CD8 marker
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) have to directly kill infected cells or tumour cells
137
T Cell Antigen Recognition
• TCR does not recognise free antigen
• TCR recognises peptides from antigens which are “processed” by antigen presenting cells (APC) and presented on a molecule called MHC (major histocompatibility complex).
138
Antigen “processing”
proteins are broken down by proteases to give short peptides.
139
The major APC (Antigen-Presenting Cell) involved in activation of naïve T cells
Dendritic Cells
140
HLA (human leukocyte antigen)
MHC proteins
141
major cause for incompatibility in transplantation
MHC proteins are highly variable between individuals
142
MHC Class I
-displays peptides derived from cytoplasmic proteins (inside)
-activates CD8 T cells to become CTL
143
MHC Class II
-displays peptides derived from proteins from outside cell and within phagosomes/endosomes (outside)
-activates CD4 T cells to become T helper cells
144
MHC I or MHC II provides information on the location of the pathogen, and directs an appropriate immune response:
• MHC II: An extracellular infection needs T helper cell activation
• MHC I: An intracytoplasmic infection needs CTL activation
145
Naïve T cell activation by activated DCs requires 2 signals
Signal 1 = T cell receptor binding MHC- Ag peptide
Signal 2 = Costimulatory signal (e.g. CD28 on T cell binds B7 on dendritic cell)
146
why the dendritic cell only expresses B7 if it is activated
This helps to restrict T cell activation to infectious situations.
147
The difference between PAMPs AND Antigens
1) The antigen (usually a protein) which is taken up and processed for presentation on MHC.
2) the PAMP (e.g. LPS, bacterial DNA) which alerts the APC to the fact there is an infection – the PAMP is not an antigen. PAMP signaling induces expression of B7 on the surface of the DC, to provide the essential signal 2.
148
apoptosis
細胞凋亡
149
Function of Cytotoxic T Cells
•Kill virally infected cells or tumour cells.
•Release granules which induce apoptosis.
150
The function of T helper (“Th”) cells
Th1 and Th2 cells secrete different types of cytokines and are particularly good at helping macrophages and B cells, respectively
151
Activated T cells can be:
(i)Cytotoxic T lymphocytes
(ii) T helper (“Th”) cells
152
Summary of T cell Life
1. T cell progenitors [Bone marrow]
2. Develop & rearrange TCR gene [thymus]
3. Central tolerance: T cells with a TCR strongly recognising self proteins are deleted
4. Mature naïve T cells leave thymus and circulate [blood and secondary lymphoid organs]
5. Stimulate to be Effector T cell (CTL or Th cell) through the recognition of antigen epitope by TCR
6. Do the work of Effector T cells
7. After antigen disappeared, Responsive T cell ↓, but memory T cells remain
153
susceptibility
易感性

症狀是白天嗜睡，因為無法調節睡眠-覺醒週期。被認為是由於下視丘神經元受到自體免疫攻擊導致無法生產下視丘分泌素神經肽激素。
163
anaphylactic shock
過敏性休克
164
Process of Allergy
1. Prior sensitisation to allergen: T cell and B cell activation to produce IgE
2. Allergen-IgE binding to Mast Cells leading to “degranulation”- release of histamine to show the symptom of allergy
3. Severe response causes anaphylactic shock: many mast cells degranulation causing a dangerous drop in blood pressure
1. 事先對過敏原致敏：T細胞和B細胞活化產生IgE
2. 過敏原-IgE與肥大細胞結合導致「脫粒」－釋放組織胺以顯示過敏症狀
3. 嚴重反應導致過敏性休克：許多肥大細胞脫顆粒導致血壓危險下降
