T cell Immunity Flashcards
Immature DC cells to active DC cells
Actived by danger signals and down regulate phago and micropin, gain ability to migrate and up regular CCR7
increase B7 and Cytokines
Purpose of lymphnodes
centers of testing for DC cells to test T cells so dont need all over body
what is Recirculation
Leave blood and stay in 2ndary for a day before migrating back
T cell extravasation
Roling - L selection binds w/ addresssin cam on HEV cells
Activation - CCR7 and ligand activate chemokines that make integrin for next step
Adhesion - LFA-1 bind HEV to ICAm
Diapedesis - Migrates to lymphnode
What is HEV
high end venules - vessels that flow into the lympnode and place where T cell extravasation occurs
How do T cells leave the lymph if not matched
Medullary sinus and efferent lymphatic
Clonal Expansion for T cells
Signal 1 (TCR binds to MHC- II) - CD3 (CD4 too short) Signals T cells and increases proteins for Anergy
Signal 2 (binds CD28(t) to B7(dc)) - Survial signal and stops Anergy unregulated CD40L
Signal 3 - DC cells direct differentiation into effector t Cells
IL- 2R and IL-2
produced by sig 1 and 2 and ensures T cell prolife
What is the importance in signal 2?
stop auto reactive T cells binding and preventing Perphieal tolerance
What is the importance of CTLA-4
Blocks over clones by CD28 b7 binding comp ( important for autoimmune drug disease
What signals get regulated when the T cell gets activated
Down S1P-R and increase CD69 ( decrease active t cells form leaving lymp)
Down L-selecting and CCR7 (signals that prevent effector T cells from leaving)
Increase VLA-4 and CXCL-8 ( allows e Tcells to leave)
Incrase CD44 and lFA-1 (helps to leave)
What is the importance of anti VLA-4
stops e t cells from over extravasation
Signal 3 TH17 targets
makes IL 6 & 17* (creates neutrophils)
for yeast and bacteria (EC)
Signal 3 TH1 targets
makes IL-2 and IFN- gamma
for virus and vesicular bacteria
IL- 6
TH17 and cause fevers
