34
Q

T regulatory cells?

*Tregs

A

CD25, CD4 and FoxP3

35
Q

Tregs secrete?

A

IL-10 and TGFβ (anti-inflammatory cytokines)

36
Q

**

Disruption in the development/Function of Treg cells (CD25,CD4, FoxP3) leads to autoimmune and inflammatory disease such as?

A

IPEX disease

*X-linked disorder
*Caused by mutations in Foxp3 gene
CM: immune dysregulation (body starts attacking itself)

37
Q

Treg cells can suppress autoreactive lymphocytes that
recognize a variety of different self antigens as long as the antigens are presented by the same APC. this is known as?

A

Linked supression

38
Q

in Central Tolerance
——– of self-reactive T cells and B cells during maturation in ——lymphoid tissues

A

Clonal deletion of self-reactive T cells and B cells during maturation in 1ry lymphoid tissues

39
Q

The 3 mechanisms of Peripheral tolerance

A

1) Clonal anergy
2) Clonal deletion
3) Clonal suppression

40
Q

In Clonal anergy there is lack of?

A

Co-stimulatory signal

41
Q

Clonal deletion fxn?

A

Fas signaling pathway

42
Q

Clonal supression is mediated by?

A

Treg cells

43
Q

———— :Isolation or compartmentalisation of Ag so that they are not encountered by autoreactive lymphocytes under normal conditions, also locally immunosuppressive microenvironmen

A

Immunological ignorance

44
Q

Immune privileged sites in the body?
