CD8 cytotoxic T cells
Intracellular
so a mature B cell has what surface BCR
IgM
IgD

**both serve as membrane bound BCR
arou double positive T cells immature or mature
immature
positive selection of T recognoizes what, what isnt recognized
MHC is recog (now downreg CD4/CD8 down reg PRN)

Peptide is NOT recognized

**Ih MHC II binds, CD4 is kept and CD8 is down reg
what do Th1 cells do
what do Th2 cells do

**its NOT just CTL in CMI, also Th
th1: kill phagosomes infected with intracellular bug

Th2: kills parasites and allergens
what tends to happen in a person who is CMI deficient
they dont really have a whole lot of CTL (t cells in general)

lots of intracellular opprotunistic infections
whats wrong in DiGeorgi Syndrome
No thymus, No T cells (entire area from head to mediasteinum is affected)

**wont respond to skin test AG, no memory T cells
what is it called when someone doesnt have a thymus
DiGeorgi

*no thymus --> No T cells --> lots of infections, no rxn to skin AG tests bc NO memory cells
what might be going on if someone doesnt respone to skin rxn AG tests
no memory cells

DeGeoige: no Thymus, No T cells
waht is the fx of CTL
Th?
capture ENDOgenouse AG with MHC I

Th does EXOGenous with MHC II (APC)
what are three things the the cytokines from Th do
1. Acitvate (proliforate/diffferentiate) T and B cells
2. Activate mscro
3. Inflammation
what are important cell surface markers for T cells that do signal transduction
CD3 zeta
what cell has CD3 and zeta, what doies it do
T cell

**signal transduction (zeta is analogous to the Iga and Igb on BCR)

**the CD4 (th) or CD8 (CTL) also do signal transduction
what cell has CD28, what does it do
T cells

**Co stimulation
what is the inhibitory signal on T cells
CTLA4
what cell has CTLA 4, what does it do
T cells, signal inhibition
what are LFA 1 adn VLA4, how does their fx differen from CLTA 4
FLA 1 and VLA 4 are adhesion mulocules on T cells

CTLA 4 is also on T cells but it inhibits hte ssignal that was created by CD3, zeta, and CD4 or CD8
what do T cells need to have FLA1 and VLA4
so that they can interact thghtly with APC and have AG be presented to them
there are 7 molecules on T cells, what are they
CD3: signal
Zeta: signal
CD4/CD8: signal
CD28: co stim
LFA1: adhesion
VLA4: adhesion

**CD44 and cD25 also expressed to commit to the T lineage early on
Do APC presenet to BOTH Th and CTL
sure thing
what is the big picture for T cell actication
APC presents 2 signals to the T cells.

**presents to both Th adn CTL
what does actication of a T cell lead to?
proliforation of T cells with a single specificity!

**LOTS of T cells that recognize the SAME AG
where does T cell activation occur?
what kinds of T cells are activated?
what happens once activated?
Who activates them, how?
2 lymph tissue
Th and CTL
Proliforation
APC with TWO activation signals (Both signals come from the APC)
how are T cells acticated and what happens once they are activted
an APC give a T cell 2 signals for activation, this allows the T cell to proliforate so that there is an arms full of T cells with the same AG specificity to attack teh AG. Effector t cell fx include: Th: activate macro, T and B and inflammation. and CTL: kill infected cells
what is teh first signal for T cell activation
TCR binds MHC

TCR matches the AG MHC, then CD4 or Cd8 will also bind
what is the second signal for T cell activation
CD28 on T cell binds to the B7 on APC

**this is the step that acticates the T cell via intracellular signal transduction
what step (1 or 2) does the actual activation
second

1. MHC: AG binds to the TCR: CD8/4 and STABILIZE

2. THe APC B7 and CD28 on T can occur and actually cause activation of the T cell
why must the T cell FIRST adhere to the APc adn THEN its activated via CD28/B7.
First turn on the engine, then step on the gas

**its a safe guard :)
what makes dendrites such a good activator of T cells in a primary immune response
they have CONSTITITIVE expression of MHC and B7
wht APC is a really good T cell activator, why
Dendrites, they always have MHC nad B7

MHC for 1st step
B7 for second step

**other APC need to be activated themselves, macrophages need activation by IFNg to express B7 for the second step of activation

dendritic is good for niaeve T
macro is good for effector T
how do dendritic cells and macrophages compare in terms of theri ability to APC?
1. Dendrites, the best, they ALWAYS have MHC nad B7 (both are required for the 2 steps of T cell activation)

2. Macrophages, pretty good but require IFNg in order to express B7 which is required for the second step of T cell activation

**dendritic are good for activating Niaeve T in primary response

**macro are good at effector T cells
what role does IFNg in T cell activation
acts on macrophages to express B7, required for the 2 step of T cell activation

**macro are better at stim effector T cells.
is LFA 1 and VLA4 part of the 1 or 2 step of T cell activation
1- adhesion
what happens when there is no B7/CD28 interaction
ANERGY

*no second signal, no T cell activation

**this limits the nu,ber of cells that can actually activate a t cell
what is anergy
unresponsive T cells, they get the 1 signal but not the second


**no B7 for the co stimulation required in the second step of activations

**only a limited number of cells (APC) have B7, limits the number of cells that can activate a t cell
ok so we have all of this stuff going on extracellularly to activate T cells (TCH, MHC< CD4, B7:CD28) what happens in the cell when this hapens
signal transduction is activated

1. NFAT
2. NFkB
3. AP1
**all work together to make IL2
what does CD4/8 actually bind to
the MHC on the APC
what are the 3 TF that are made in repsonse to the extracellular 2 step T cell activation? what do they do
NFAT
NFkB
AP1

**all work to make IL2
how is IL2 made,
made by the T cell. So we have the 2 step activation path that causes signal transduction, this makes NFAT, NFkB, and AP1, these TF then work to make IL2
in addition to secretion of IL2 by the T cell in response to activation what else happens
the T cell also makes an IL2 receptor for itself

**IL2 is an autocrine signal, made BY the T FOR the T
is IL2 required for T cell activation?
sure is!
so the T cell has received two activation signals (MHC:AG::TCR:CD4/8) it makes IL2 and IL2R. Then what?
IL2 makes cyclins which activate activation
what must happen in order for IL2 to bind T cell
needs a high affinity IL2 receptor, this means that only activated T cells will be able to bind IL2 and stim proliforation via cyclins
so... we have had
1. 2 step activation
2. production of TF (NFAT, NFkB, AP1)
3. Production of IL2 & IL2R
4. several rounds of replication

what happens next
we then make T cells with CTLA4

**CTLA4 is in inhibitory signal that binds to B7 on the APC to stop the signal
what 2 things on the T cell can bind to By on the APC
1. CH28, the normal thing for co stimulation. ACTIVATOR

2. CTLA 4, only expressed after several rounds of IL2/cyclin induced proliforation. Out competes CH28 and acts as an INBITORY signal to stop proliforation
wht stops t cell proliforation after it has been activated
CTLA 4 is expressed on the T cell after several rounds of proliforation. this binds to B7 on the T cell to block the 2 co stim signal! INHIBITS proliforation
what part of T cell activation can be manipulated to help in cancer
IL2

**take some T cells from cancer, show them IL2 to increase the T cell numbers and then put them back into the cancer (tumor)
what 2 drugs inhibit T cell activation? how do they work
1. cyclosporin
2. tacrolimus

**they prevent NFAT, no NFAT no IL2. no IL2, NO T CELL ACTIVATION

**recall NFAT, NFkB and AP1 are all required to act as TF for IL2 synthesis
what is one method of immunosupression useing T cells
inhibit activation by blocking IL2

**cyclosporin and tacrolimus can prevent NFAT, no NFAT no IL2, no IL2 no T cell response

FAS: ALL nucleated cells
FASL: T cells that dont have granules for the granular killing mech. ACTIVATED CD8
how do effector CTL know what cells to kill since ALL cells have FCL
