PREPARATION
,Th0 -ANSWER✅✅✅immature T cells; a naive T-helper cell that has the characteristics
of Th1 and Th2 - have no function - later differentiates into Th1 and Th2
Th1 -ANSWER✅✅✅produce cytokines that mediate the delayed type hypersensitivity
reaction, basically mediate the inflammatory response
Th2 -ANSWER✅✅✅excellent helpers for B-cell proliferation and antibody synthesis
and secretion (T-helper cell)
Treg cells -ANSWER✅✅✅inhibit or suppress the function of other CD4 cells, Th1 and
Th2
PPD -ANSWER✅✅✅purified protein derivative
explain the sensitization phase upon infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis -
ANSWER✅✅✅upon infection the bacteria is going to produce antigen (marking it as
foreign) and macrophages will ingest the antigen and present it as small antigenic
determinants on its suraface; MHC II receptor is going to present this antigen to Tdth -
the macrophage will then produce IL-1 which will cause Tdth to produce IL-2 and it will
have autocrine and paracrine acitivty
explain the elicitation phase upon infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis -
ANSWER✅✅✅after initial infection there will be Tdth cells in the blood that are
sensitized to the antigen; upon bind and recognizing the bacteria cytokines are going to
be released which will attract monocytes to the area and they will differentiate into
macrophages which will then surround the organism and wall the infection off
how does the skin test for TB work? -ANSWER✅✅✅PPD is injected intradermally and
if the person has Tdth cells that are sensitized to the bacteria cytokines are going to be
released which will then attract monocytes to the area which will differentiate into
macrophages and inflammation will occur
MIF -ANSWER✅✅✅macrophage migration inhibitory factor
you have two mice: M1 (sensitized to egg albumin) and M2 (not sensitized)
you take a single cell suspension from both mice and put it into a glass capillary and put
them into a petri dish in which you put egg albumin in - what happens to the single cell
suspension for both mice? -ANSWER✅✅✅M1: the Tdth cells will produce cytokines
and over time these macrophages are going to be unable to leave because the
cytokines prevent them from leaving
M2: there will be no response because the cells are not sensitized so the macrophages
will be able to migrate out (which is what they want to do)
,what is the purpose of MIF? -ANSWER✅✅✅lymphocytes from an animal or human
sensitized to the antigen release lymphokines (MIF) that will block the migration of
macrophages from the end of the tube where the cells aggregate

T-ctl. how do you isolate macrophages? -ANSWER✅✅✅pour off nonadherent cells
you have a tube of a spleen cell suspension with macrophages, B-cells, T-dth, T-h, and
T-ctl. how do you get rid of macrophages? -ANSWER✅✅✅use adherence

antibody and complement

and complement (gets rid of B-cells)
2. use adherence (gets rid of macrophages)
you have a tube of a spleen cell suspension with macrophages, B-cells, T-dth, T-h, and
T-ctl. how do you isolate T-ctl? -ANSWER✅✅✅1. inject GOAT antimouse IgD and
complement (gets rid of B-cells)
2. inject GOAT antimouse CD4 and complement (gets rid of T-h and T-dth)
3. use adherence (gets rid of macrophages)
you have a tube of a spleen cell suspension with macrophages, B-cells, T-dth, and T-ctl.
how do you isolate T-dth? -ANSWER✅✅✅1. inject GOAT antimouse CD8 Ab and
complement (gets rid of T-ctl)
2. inject GOAT antimouse IgD and complement (gets rid of B-cells)
3. use adherence (gets rid of macrophages)
, Cr51 assay -ANSWER✅✅✅accurate method to measure cell cytotoxicity or the ability
of Tctl to kill target cells; measures it by seeing how much chromium is released
macrophages + Th + Tctl + target cells = _______% killing -ANSWER✅✅✅100%
Th + target cells = _______% killing -ANSWER✅✅✅5%
Tctl + target cells = _______% killing -ANSWER✅✅✅30%
Th + Tctl + target cells = _______% killing -ANSWER✅✅✅90%
what are two important killing agents that Tctl have? -ANSWER✅✅✅perforin
granzymes
perforin -ANSWER✅✅✅complement-like components that form pores in the target cell
membrane
granzymes -ANSWER✅✅✅proteases that enter the target cell through the pores
created by the perforin
hypersensitivity -ANSWER✅✅✅exaggerated reactions of normal host defense
immune responses that result in immune mediated tissue damage and sometimes
death
immune response that is damaging -ANSWER✅✅✅hypersensitivity
who defined/divided hypersensitivity reactions into 4 internationally defined types in the
1960s? -ANSWER✅✅✅Coombs and Gell
studied the effects of sea anemone toxins on dogs and coined the term
"hypersensitivity" -ANSWER✅✅✅Richel and Portier
when Richel and Portier injected the dogs with sea anemone the first time (primary
exposure), what happened? what happened when the gave a second injection
(secondary exposure)? -ANSWER✅✅✅primary exposure - the dogs got sick, but
recovered.
secondary exposure - 30% of the dogs died due to anaphylaxis. In other words, their
immune response killed them, not the toxin.
anaphylaxis -ANSWER✅✅✅"without protection"; a very severe lifethreatening allergic
reaction
prophylaxis -ANSWER✅✅✅"with protection"; prevention of disease
