polysaccharide capsules not recognized
Antigen presentation
_..
requires antigen presentation:
TCR
_..
CD3: E and Delta
_..
_..
CD4: quarterback of immune response
CD4
_..
MHC II
_..
Co-Stimulation
_..
_..
TH1 and 2
_..
macrophages secretes IL-12
T Cell cytokines
_..
_..
TH1 vs 2
_..
Population of T cells; local cytokines favoring one or the other
_..
_..
intracellular infections protected from antibodies because inside cell, Th2 not useful, Th1 cell mediated useful
Granulomas
_..
Leprosy
_..
IBS
_..
TH1 and macrophages
_..
mutation in IL-12 or IFN-gamma receptors can lead to problem
IL12R deficiency
_..
IFN-y
_..
CD8
[_](CD8 T cell function. What cells have MHC I. What cells don't. Why is CD8 important)..
antibody, APC, macrophages, CD4 are ineffective against intracellular virus
CD8 react to MHC I and kill cell
MHC I
_..
heavy chain = alpha
_..
CD8 function
_..
Regulatory T
[_](Regulatory T cells function, marker, CD's, cytokines)..
TH17

Memory T
_..
PPD test example of memory cell response

Superantigens
_..
Thymus

_..
positive selection selects for strongest binding to MHC
negative selection selects for weakest binding to self antigens
