T Cells:Adaptive/Specific Immunity Immunity Review of B cells B cells fight antigens by producing antibodies Fights antigens floating around your body T-Cells Start from hemapoietic stem cells in bone marrow Travel to thymus to mature – Thymus: organ above heart http://www.mdausa.org/images/qpix/q44thym3.jpg DOES NOT secrete antibodies Two types of T cells Helper T Cells – CD4+ cells – Secrete signaling proteins “cytokines” – Stimulate other cells Cytotoxic T cells – CD8+ cells – Recognize cells infected with viruses and kill them T Cells have Cell surface Receptors T-Cells patrol the body cells Have receptor proteins on surface – Receptors look like B-Cell’s receptors Recognize specific shapes of antigens presented by molecules called MHC molecules Every Body cell has MHC molecules MHC: Major Histocompatability Complex – Area of genes on chromosome 6 A protein found spanning cell membranes Two types – Class I MHC Encoded by HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLAD On every cell Encoded by HLA – Class II MHC Encoded by HLA-D genes Only on B cells and macrophages MHC must match for Organ Donation MHC genes complex most polymorphic KNOWN to man – Many alleles for same genes – Thousands of different combinations In a study of 1000 individuals – Only 111 people had 1 match in group Their job is to show all the proteins in the cell MHC presents peptides ALL proteins in a cell are broken down – By a proteosome into pieces(peptides) – Normal proteins – Foreign proteins Peptides are presented on cell surfaces by MHC MHC has a groove like a bun – Peptide is hot dog that fits inside http://www.mdausa.org/images/qpix/q44molecule1.jpg st 1 type: T helper Cells T helper cells – CD4+ cells – recognize a viral protein presented by MHC II – Help to activate macrophages and B-cells MHC II is only found on macrophages and B-Cells – EX. Macrophage eating salmonella bacteria st 1 type: T helper Cells Macrophage ingest bacteria and break down proteins – Present on surface with Class I MHC molecules T-helper cells bind the antigen-MHC complex – Releases cytokines http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=www.nyhallsci.org/whataboutaids/whatis/immune/assets/29.j pg&imgrefurl=http://www.nyhallsci.org/whataboutaids/whatis/immune/content.html&h=295&w=390&p rev=/images%3Fq%3DHelper%2BT%2BCells%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUT F-8%26oe%3DUTF-8 T helper cells release cytokines Special signaling proteins Stimulate cells – Macrophages – B Cells – Other T cells Tells Macrophages to double in size and strength Tells B and other T cells to proliferate http://www.cat.cc.md.us/courses/bio141/lecguide/unit1/bacpath/images/target.gif nd 2 type: Killer T cells CD8+ cell – Has CD8 proteins on them Cytotoxic T cells=Killer T cells Activated by cytokines from helper T cells Start proliferating Recognize antigens presented by MHC class I – All cells in body have class I MHC – Recognizes cells in body that are infected with viruses Killer T Cells: Sees cell infected with virus Kills the cell to stop virus spreading – A cell infected with polio virus can release 100,000 new viruses – Kill it before it finishes making viruses Killer T-cell punches hole in cell membrane – Host cell lyses open(breaks open) and dies http://www.cancerresearch.org/images/immres6.gif Overview B lymphocytes – Antibody-Mediated Immunity – Produces antibodies – 1. Plasma Cells Produce antibodies – 2. Memory Cells Lifelong protection T lymphocytes – Cell-Mediated Immunity – 1. Helper T cells Help other lymphocytes – 2. Killer T cells Kill infected virus
