wuts on the helper T cell
CD3, CD4, TCR, and MHC class 1
wuts on the cytotoxic t cell
CD3, CD8, TCR, and MHC class 1
wuts on the B cell
BCR, MHC class 1, and MHC class 2
human immunity characteristics
recognition of self and non-self, memory
antigens
molecules recognized as non-self, can be exogenous or endogenous
innate immunity
1st rxn, not antigen specific
adaptive immunity
2ns rxn, specific/powerful, can be humoral or cell mediated
humoral
antibody-mediated immunity
cell-mediated immunity
cells targeting other cells (ex. T cells)
primary lymphoid tissue
, thymus and bone marrow
secondary lymphoid tissue
lymph nodes, spleen, and MALT
natural killer cells
cytotoxic lymphocytes, recognize loss of self-antigen
how NK cells work
release 1st bomb: proteins that poke holes into the diseased
release 2nd bomb: proteases
T cells
thymus derived lymphocytes that are presented antigens by APCs
where are T cells found
blood, spleen, lymph node interfollicular zones
CD8 cytotoxic T cells
direct cell killing (apoptosis), produce cytokines, MHC class 1 presents antigens to CD8
CD4 helper T cells
release cytokines that stimulate B cells to make antibodies and encourage
macrophages to destroy microbes
MHC stand for
major histocompatibility complex
HLA stands for
human leukocyte antigen
MHC Class 1
Present on all cells except red blood cells, signals to CD8 cells
