usual target of transplant rxn?
organ vasculature
what is a haplotype?
combo of several alleles in a gene cluster
we each get how many hla haplotypes from our parents?
2
hla haplotypes from parents are expressed how?
codominantly
if ab sees foreign ag from graft tissue and binds, what happens?
complement activation or adcc
hyperacute rejection time? acute?
minutes to hours; days to weeks
which antigens are an example of hyperacute rejection?
abo and hla
acute rejection scenarios (3):
1. t cells in recipient see foreign ag, immune response
2. apc from graft enters blood and presents antigens to t cells in lymph tissue
3. mhc from graft taken by recipients apc to lymp
most immunosupp drugs aimed at what rejection scenario?
acute-mhc from graft taken by recipient apc to lymph tissue
how does indirect coomb's work?
recipient serum w/ donor rbc to check agglut.
ways to check for tissue compati?
serological tissue typing, cross match, genotyping
what is serological tissue typing?
standard ab. to detect which hla the donor and recipient have
cross match checks what?
recipient doesn't have ab to donor tissue
how do cyclosporin, sirolimus, and tacromilus work?
cyclosporin-blocks t cell cytokin production; sirolumus-inhibits t cell activation and proliferation and inhibits ab formation; tacrolimus-same as cyclosporin
how does azathioprine work?
blocks prolif of lymph precurs
how does mycophenolate work?
blocks lymp prolif by inhibiting guanine nucleotide synt
how does rapamycin work?
blocks lymph prolif by inhibiting il-2 signal
how do steroids work?
reduce inflam by inhibit macrophage cytokine secretion
how does anticd3 work?
depletes t cells
how does anti-il2 receptor ab work?
inhibits t cell prolif
how does ctla4 work?
inhibits t cell activaiton by blocking b7 costimulator binding to cd28
anticd3 may work which way?
may just inhibit t cell activation or may activate t cells and lead to death inappropriately
gvhd can start where?
lungs, gut, liver, skin
gvhd starts when?
7-30 dyas
once it has begun why is there high mortality in gvhd?
resp problems and infection
bm transplant indicated in what disease?
immunodef where you need to replace all of immune system
what antigen is used to id and pull out hematopoetic stem cells?
cd-34
what is cd34?
early progenitor cell which diff. into hemato stem cells
th1 or th2 in pregnant t cell response?
th2

th2
mhc i increase or decrease on trophoblast?
decrease
hla-g expression on trophoblast high or low?
high
