serology
|
study of reactions b/w antibodies and antigens
|
|
antiserum
|
generic term for serum b/c it contains Ab
|
|
globulins
|
serum proteins
|
|
immunoglobulins
|
antibodies
|
|
gamma globulin
|
serum fraction containing Ab
|
|
naturally acquired active immunity
|
result from infection
|
|
naturally acquired passive immunity
|
transplacental or via colostrum
|
|
artificual acquired active immunity
|
injection of Ag (vaccination)
|
|
artificially acquired passive immunity
|
Injection of Ab
|
|
NK cell
|
leukocytes destroy cells that don't express MHC 1
kill virus infected and tumor cells attack parasites |
|
Treg
|
T regularotry cells
CD4 and CD25 on surface suppress T cells against self |
|
T lymphocytes
|
prod in red bone marrow
mature in thymus circulate in lymph and blood migrate to lymph nodes, spleen, peyers patch part of cell-mediated immune response act directly against various Ag |
|
Classes of T cells
|
Helper T
Cytotoxic T |
|
helper T
|
CD4
MHC 2 recognize Ag on surface of macrophage and activate macrophage dendritic cells activate CD4 Tcells Th1 produces IFN gamma Th2 activate eosinophils and B cells to produce IgE |
|
Cytotoxic T
|
CD8
MCH 1 precursor to CTLs activated by cytokines fr helper T cell |
|
TCR
|
recognition of antigens by T cell requires process by antigen presenting cells
dendritic cells macrophages |
|
dendritic cells
|
long extensions of the membrane are dendrites
in lymph nodes, spleen, skin poorly phagocytic - good for APC |
|
macrophages
|
found in resting state
initiated by ingestion of antigenic material or cytokines appearance different - ruffled look after activation - migrate to lymph nodes and mucosa presen antigen to T cells there |
|
M cells
|
in microvilli on epithelial cell
allow transfer to lymphocytes and Ag presenting cells of immune sys thru GI IgA formed and migrate to mucosal lining facilitate contact b/w Ag and immune |
|
MHC
|
Ag presentation
Ag detected by Tcell |
|
MHC 2
|
stimulate T helper and cytotoxic
dendritic cells, B cells + macrophages are APC's that present to Tc & Th for engulfed microbe |
|
MHC 1
|
all cells have
shows if contaminated or not Display Ag to Tc |
|
Cytokines
|
chemical messengers
|
|
IL1
|
stimulate T helper w/ Ag
|
|
IL2
|
proliferation of CD4 T helper; B cells; activate CD8 T cells & NK cells
|
|
TNF alpha
|
promotes inflammation
|
|
IFN beta
|
stimulate macrophage activity
|
