MUA M2B2 IDR 03
Adaptive immune regulation pt. 1
Term | Definition |
---|---|
Circulating B cells that have not encountered antigen are known as | naive B cells |
Co-expression of IgD and IgM is regulated by | RNA processing |
Ig that feedback inhibits B cell activation | IgG |
FcyRIIB (CD32) | found in B cells, DC, mast cells, Neutrophills, Macrophages: Feedback INHIBITS Bcells and inflammation |
FcyRI (CD 64) | on macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils: Phagocytosis activation |
FcyRIIA (CD32) | on macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils, platelets: inefficient Phagocytosis activation |
FcyRIIIA (CD16) | binds IgG on NK cells for antibody dependent cell cytotoxicity |
FceRI | binds IgE on Mast cells, basophils, eosinophils for degranulation. Enhanced by IL5 from Th2 cells |
Functions of complement pathway | phagocytosis, cytolysis, inflammation |
lymphocytes may be activated to proliferate and differentiate | immunogenic antigen |
lymphocytes that are functionally inactivated or killed | tolerogenic antigen |
Types of Peripheral T cell tolerance | cell-intrinsic anergy, suppression by regulatory T cells, deletion (apoptotic cell death) |
Tcell Anergy | recognizes antigen without strong costimulation, may lose their ability or be blocked by CTLA-4 |
Tcell suppression by reg.T cells | self recognizing T cell in thymus stimulated by FoxP3 and IL2 |
T cell Apoptosis | pro-survival IL2 secreted usually, without co-stimulation self antigen recognition may lead to expression of death receptors and their ligands, such as Fas and Fas ligand (FasL), |
Central tolerance | If the self antigen is recognized weakly (with low avidity), the B cell reduces antigen receptor expression and becomes functionally unresponsive. If binds strongly = apoptosis |
Peripheral Tolerance | mature B cell recognizes a self antigen without T cell help is functionally inactivated and becomes incapable of responding to that antigen (anergy), or dies by apoptosis (deletion), or its activation is suppressed by engagement of inhibitory receptors. |
B cells can shut off antibody production via | antibody feedback where antibody bound to antigen inhibits further antibody production with FcyRIIB |
BAFF | is a B cell–activating cytokine that may be involved in switching to IgA, especially in T-independent responses. |
B cell switching to IgA | TGFB, BAFF |
B cell switching to IgE | IL4 |
B cell switching to IgG | INF-y |
