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
PPD
_..

Superantigens
_..



Thymus
_..


_..

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