Exogenous antigens -- MHC class II -- CD4+ helper T-cells.
Exogenous antigens are usually displayed on MHC class II molecules, which activate CD4+ helper T-cells.
Endogenous antigens -- MHC class I molecules -- CD8+ cytotoxic T-cells.
Endogenous antigens are typically displayed on MHC class I molecules, and activate CD8+ cytotoxic T-cells.
All white blood cells (WBC) are known as leukocytes.
Leukocytes are different from other cells of the body in that they are not tightly associated with a particular organ or tissue; thus, they function similar to independent, single-celled organisms.
plasma cells
Specialized B cells which churn out antibodies—more than two thousand per second. Most of these die after four to five days;
With the exception of non-nucleated cells (including erythrocytes), MHC class I is expressed by all host cells.

positive selection
making sure T-cells bind to MHC of your body
negative selection
the only type of selection for B cells
t cells
these cells leave the marrow at an early age and travel to the thymus, where they mature. Here they are imprinted with critical information for recognizing “self” and “non-self” substances.
b cells
B cells spend their entire early life in the bone marrow. Upon maturity, their job is to travel throughout the blood and lymph looking for antigens with which they can interlock.



Once a B cell has identified an antigen, it starts replicating itself. These cloned cells mature into antibody-manufacturing plasma cells.
b cells
is presented antigens and b cell is eliminated if it reacts to antigens
dendritic cells
Mostly found in the skin and mucosal epithelium, where they are referred to as Langerhan's cells. Unlike macrophages, dendritic cells can also recognize viral particles as non-self. In addition, they can present antigens via both MHC I and MHC II, and can thus activate both CD8 and CD4 T cells, directly.
clonal selection
how the immune system responds to infection and how certain types of B and T lymphocytes are selected for destruction of specific antigens invading the body.
memory cells
Specialized B cells which grant the body the ability to manufacture more of a particular antibody as needed, in case a particular antigen is ever encountered again.
macrophage
Literally, “large eaters.” These are large, long-lived phagocytes which capture foreign cells, digest them, and present protein fragments (peptides) from these cells and manifest them on their exterior. In this manner, they present the antigens to the T cells.



Macrophages are strategically located in lymphoid tissues, connective tissues and body cavities, where they are likely to encounter antigens. They also act as effector cells in cell-mediated immunity.
clonal selection's effect on b and t cells
Clonal selection is an important immunological process that determines which B and T lymphocytes, types of white blood cells, will be produced in large quantities.
t and b cells are the
the lymphocytes of the adaptive immune system.
clonal selection works by
clonal expansion. You only have one cell to begin with that recognizes a given pathogen, but once that cell sees the pathogen it is able to recognize, it rapidly divides, producing thousands of copies of itself. Quite literally, the cell clones itself, expanding the population of lymphocytes able to fight the infection: hence, clonal expansion.
why does clonal selection work
The T's were able to clonally expand because they were the only cells that were able to "see" that pathogen because of their unique receptor
antigen-presenting cells
Cells which do not have antigen-specific receptors. Instead, they capture and process antigens, present them to T cell receptors. These cells include macrophages, dentritic cells and B cells.
two types of human immunity
The human immune system is divided into two main parts: humoral immunity, which deals with infectious agents in the blood and body tissues, and cell-mediated immunity, which deals with body cells that have been infected.
humoral system is managed by
B-cells
cell-mediated system is managed by
T-cells
The humoral system of immunity is also called the
antibody-mediated system because of its use of specific immune-system structures called antibodies.
Antibodies (or immunoglobulin, Ig), are
large Y-shaped proteins used by the immune system to identify and neutralize foreign objects
In mammals there are five types of antibodies
IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM
macrophages digest the infectious agent and then
display some of its components on their surfaces.
most innate immune leukocytes cannot divide or reproduce on their own, but are
the products of multipotent hematopoietic stem cells present in the bone marrow
displays from macrophages are recognized by
helper-T cells, which activate their immune response, and multiply rapidly. This is called the activation phase.
Natural killer cells, mast cells, eosinophils, basophils; and the phagocytic cells including macrophages, neutrophils and dendritic cells
innate leukocytes
after the activation phase is the effector phase, which is when:
The next phase, called the effector phase, involves a communication between helper-T cells and B-cells. Activated helper-T cells use chemical signals to contact B-cells, which then begin to multiply rapidly as well. B-cell descendants become either plasma cells or B memory cells. The plasma cells begin to manufacture huge quantities of antibodies that will bind to the foreign invader (the antigen) and prime it for destruction. B memory cells retain a "memory" of the specific antigen that can be used to mobilize the immune system faster if the body encounters the antigen later in life.
negative selection is important because
negative selection is important as it eliminates cells that might otherwise mount an autoimmune attack. It is one of the ways in which tolerance to self antigens is achieved.
A response to an agent against which the body has already formed memory cells is called a
secondary response.
Clonal selection operates among the B and T cells of the immune system to
select for replication only those that respond to a particular antigen.

ACTIVE HUMORAL IMMUNITY
Active humoral immunity is the development of antibodies in response to stimulation by an antigen.
Once inside the cell, the invading pathogen is contained inside an endosome
which merges with a lysosome.
With active immunity,
antigens enter the body and the body responds by making its own antibodies and B-memory cells
Both passive and active immunity can be
either naturally or artificially acquired.
In passive immunity,
antibodies made in another person or animal enter the body and the immunity is short-lived.
Neutrophils, along with two other cell types; eosinophils and basophils (see below), are known as
granulocytes due to the presence of granules in their cytoplasm.

polymorphonuclear cells

IGG:
n its four forms, provides the majority of antibody-based immunity against invading pathogens. The only antibody capable of crossing the placenta to give passive immunity to fetus.

Bohr effect
relationship of hydrogen with hemoglobin molecule, affecting hemoglobin's ability to carry oxygen
majority of CO2 is transported
AS BICARBONATE AND DISSOLVED IN THE PLASMA
If you allow bicarbonate to leak out of the blood,
you will build up electropositivity in erythrocyte so chloride is used to balance that = CHLORIDE SHIFT
in areas of high CO2, oxygen is released
due to chloride shift
bicarbonate's outflow
is countered by chloride shift, which allows bicarbonate to leave cel without giving it a charge
due to chloride shift
hydrogen binds to hemoglobin, causing bohr effect, causing O2 release
chloride shift happens in
...systemic capillary bed
CO2 leaves capillary, following its partial pressure gradient
reaction to the left as CO2 leaves in alveolar air = HALDANE EFFECT
haldane effect is:
Deoxygenation of the blood increases its ability to carry carbon dioxide; this property is the Haldane effect. Conversely, oxygenated blood has a reduced capacity for carbon dioxide.
haldane effect is done because of -
co2 concentrations
bohr effect is initiated by -
the binding of hydrogen
