|
what do CD4+ and CD8+ cells do after leaving the thymus and enter the blood stream:
|

what are the Adhesion molecules involved in T lymphocyte homing:
1. 2. 3. |
1. LFA- lymphocyte function associated antigen
2. CAM-cellular adhesion molecule 3. CCL21 |
|
in the cortex of the lymph node, why are there interactions between the adhesion molecules on the cell surfaces that allow for non-specific binding so the antigen-specific interaction can occur
|
even if a T cell encounter a specific peptide:MHC complex, the probability the molecules are close enough on both cell surfaces for binding to occur is very small
|
|
in the cortex of a lymph node, As the T cell and APC adhere, their ... complex move into the plane provided by the adhesion site bringing them into close vicinity of one another. if the binding is specific, ... will form
|
TCR and peptide:MHC
an immunological synapse |
|
what are the 2 signals required for activation of naïve T cells:
1. 2. |

2. Binding of CD28 (on T cell) to B7 (on dendritic cell) |
|
... sends an inactivation signal to the T cell to stop the proliferative response that was generated by the CD28
|
CTLA4
|
|
... cells are better a presenting antigen than ... and ...
|
Dendritic
macrophage B cells |
|
three main professional APCs:
1. 2. 3. |

B cells |
|
after activation CD4 T cells differentiate along two pathways. what are the pathways and what do the cells do:
1. 2. |
1. TH1: secrete cytokines that lead to macrophage activation, inflammation, and enhanced phagocytosis
2. TH2: secrete cytokines that cause B cell differentiation and production of antibodies |
|
CD8 T cells need stronger co-stimulatory signals than CD4 T cells to be activated
