What did HG WELLS show that anaphylactic reactions to various proteins could be inhibited by

Prior feeding of the appropriate materiai

OT is the term thats used to refer what

The state of unresponsiveness that exists for non pathogenic antigens in the gut lumen

What immunity can ot be induced to and whats easier to tolerise

Both humeral and cell mediated immunity


Cell mediated immunity is easier to tolerise they require less antigen and last longer

What is easier to tolerise Th1 or Th2

Th1

What type of antibidy responses are extreemly sensitive to OT

IgE

What does OT induce in lymphocyte homing

Defective lymphocyte migration

What is required for the maintence of OT

Antigen persistence

What are the easiest to tolwrise because they are most associated with pathology

IgE and DTH

Induction and maintenance of OT


FOR ACTIVE IMMUNITY VS TOLERANCE


particulate


Viable


Locally invasive


Pp uptake


T independent

Soluble


Non living


Rapidly absorbed


Mucosal uptake


T dependent

Is it good id you introduce the antigens early?

Yes

What happens ir the animal is very sterile

Will be resistant to tolerance

What does poor nutrition do to OT

Decreases OT

What is clonal deletion

Getting rid of self reactive t cells

What is Fas deficient mice and what is their tolerance

Fas means they cant apopotose cells and keep proliferating


Their tolerance is normal so apoptosis isnt mechanism in oral tolerance

Is there a single mechanism for ot

No

What is clonal anergy

T cell knows a antigen is there but not getting excited enough so dont make an immune response

In clonal anergy are t cells recognising the antigen

Yes but dont see it as inportant and dont do anything


Lack of co stimulatory molecules and antigen presentation

CD8 regulatory or suppressor T cells mediated OT as the induction of tolerance could be prevented with what

Cyclophosphamide

What cytokines are enhanced following oral tolerance

Il-10 and TGF-β

What happens if you block tgf-β ?

Block oral tolerance

What is bystander suppression

Associated with feeding low doses of Ag


Lacking co stimulatory molecules

What do you need to tolerise for autoimmune antigens

There are multiple auto antigens


Only need to induce OT on one to tolerise them all

What happens with oral tolerance and skin grafts

If induce oral tolerance they will down regulate the inflammatory response related to the skin graft

What happens when you deplete CD4+ cels

This prevents oral tolerance

What is increased following oral tolerance ( T cells subset)

Th2 increasesd and Th1 decreased

What can OT be transferred by

CD4 cells


γδ CD8+ T cells- this suppresses igE

Diabetes in NOD mice can be prevented by what

A transfer of tolerised CD8+ γδ T cells

What happens when γδ T cells are depleted

Prevent oral tolerance

Can oral tolerance be induced in TCR KO MICe?

No

What do γδ T cells play a important role in

Intestinal homeostasis

What happens to oral tolerance with APc functions activate

Oral tolerance is prevented


Activated APC express co stimulatory molecules that will present the antigen and break the OT

Epithelial cells express MHC CLASS II but have low levels of what

Co stimulatory molecules and ICam-1

What do antigen loaded DC DO

found in efferent intestinal lymph after feeding (draining to the gut in feeding) they are likely to induce oral tolerance they have low levels of co stimulatory molecules

What happens when antigen passes through the gut

Converted and changed


Ag passing through the gut makes it more likely to induce OT rather than being injected

Can OT be induced in IL-4 KO mice

Yes

IL-10 KO MICE develop what

IBD

What cytokine is suppressed by ot

IFN-γ

OT OF IGE is dependent on what

IFN-γ

What happens with IFN-γ KO MICE

Ot is normal

Bystander supression is dependent on what

TGF-β

Oral administration of antigen then to the GALT - high dose

Deletion anergy of Th1 and Th2


Clonal deletion and clonal anergy


Oral tolerance

Oral administration of antigen then to the GALT - multiple low doses

Induction of Th2( IL4/IL-10) induction of TH3( tgf-β)


Active supression


Oral tolerance

What augments oral tolerance

IL-2, IL4/IL-10 anti-IL-2 cholera toxin B subunit


LPS


IFN-β


Multiple emulsions

What decreases oral tolerance

IFN-y


Il-12


Cholera toxin


Anti-MCP-1


Anti-γδ


Cyclophosphamide


Graft versus host disease


Parasite infection- if infection u up regulate the co stimulatory molecules

When can OT be a problem?

Developing oral vaccines- against mucosal pathogens is desirable u dont need neddles which is expensive painful
