TNF
Where does it come from?
What does it do?
From Macrophages, Th1, stressed tissue
Causes cachexia, promotes apoptosis
Pyrogen and stops cells when danger is gone
IL-6
Where does it come from?
What does it do?
Pyrogen
Increases production of neutrophils/basophils/macrophages, inhibits TNF & IL-1; promotes IL-10; increase metabolism; sickness behavior, fever
IL-1
Where does it come from?
What does it do?
pyrogen
From Macrophages, Th2 injured tissue.
hematopoeisis, tissue repair, increases immune stimulation, fever, hyperalgesia, sickness behavior
Cancer phase 1
Tumor stress signal
NK cells are activated, produce IFN-gamma
Cancer phase 2
Macrophage activation by danger signals and IFN-gamma
IL-12, Inflammation, suppression of blood supply leads to necrosis
Cancer Phase 3
Macrophage activation of NK cells via IL-12
Induction of apoptosis by NK cells
Cancer Phase 4
Antigen presentation in lymph nodes
clonal expansion of Th1 and killer T-cells provide specificity to anti-tumor response
What 3 things promote immune tolerance?
Consistant exposure
exposure though intestines
lack of danger signals
What 3 things promote immune reactivity?
Episodic exposure
Exposure though skin
Concurrent danger signals
What is the genetic cause of Ankylosing spondylitis?
most people with AS have HLA-B27 MHC-1
These combine with CD-8 t cells, in AS, cannot combine correctly, autoreactivity in CD8 cells
What is the genetic basis of Insulin resistant diabetes?
HLA-DR3 and HLA-DR4
CD4 t helper cells
IgG antibody
can cross placenta
2nd to develop immunity
IgG1 and IgG3 activate complement
Causes neutralization
Long lasting
Test it to see if vaccine has worked
IgM antibody
first to be formed
rises in acute stage of disease
can cross epithelium, but does not do so often
activates complement
IgA antibody
dimer
enters gut, crosses epithelium
neutralization
IgE antibody
sensitization of mast cells. Seen in allegy and helminth infections
Transplant Rejection
Hyperacute
begins within hours
pre-formed antibodies
injury via complement
Transplant rejection
acute
after 1 week or more
CD4/CD8 cell mediated
Transplant rejection
chronic
fibrosis
Graves disease
antibodies are made against thyroid cells and it leads to hyperthyroidism
Insulin resistant diabetes
Ab (fab) bindts to insuline receptor, making it so insulin cannot bind. can lead to hyperglycemia and ketoacidosis
TGF-beta
Where does it come from?
What does it do?
From Stressed tissue, Tregs (ntreg, itreg, th3)
Promotes apoptosis

The DANGER IS GONE!!!
IL-10
Where does it come from?
What does it do?
From Th2, monocytes, mast cells, Tregs
Inhibits IFN-gamma, MHC, IL-2, IL-3, TNF, GM-CSF, NK killing, promotes B cells
Mast cell newly formed mediators
Eiconsanoids::
Prostaglandin D2-- eosinophils, basophils and Th2
Leukotriene C4:vasopermeability and brochoconstriction
Cytokines:: IL-4 and TNF
Mast cell pre formed mediators
serotonin, HISTAMINE<, proteolytic enzymes proteoglycans(heparin)
How does the immune system respond to:
Intracellular pathogens
Th1 cells: IL-2, IFN-gamma
macrophages, killer T-cells, NK, NKT
How does the immune system respond to:
Extracellular pathogens?
Th17 cells
Il-17, IL-21, IL-22
Neutrophils
How does the immune system respond to multicellular pathogens?
Th2 cells:
IL-4, IL5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-13
basophils, eosinophils, IgE/mast cells
What is a monoclonal antibody?
"onoclonal antibodies (mAb or moAb) are monospecific antibodies that are the same because they are made by identical immune cells that are all clones of a unique parent cell." (wikipedia)
