Q

What is the reason that T cells only recognize proteins?

A

only living things produce proteins; 4 nucleic acids have more variability than sugar; 20 aa’s give more ability to distinguish between self and nonself

Q

what are teh APCs of the lymphoid organs?

A

dendritic cells

26
Q

T/F: all tissue macrophages have TLRs that recognize LPS

A

true

27
Q

T/F: tissue macrophages can detect bacterial DNA and ssRNA

A

true

28
Q

What two cytokines do all tissue macrophages produce?

A

IL1 and TNF-a

29
Q

Why are CTLs difficult to monitor for vaccine production?

A
  1. Each naive t cell has a unique TCR
  2. each t cell needs an EXACT match to the Ag-MHC complex to bind
  3. There are 1000s of different mHCI alleles
  4. to test CTL anti-viral vaccines you needs the target cells of the SAME MHCI allelle as the donor of the CTLs
30
Q

HIV nef blocks (blank) synthesis

A

MHCI

31
Q

Herpes simplex ICP47 blocks (blank) activity which prevents peptides to be transported from the proteasome into the ER

A

TAP

32
Q

CMV H301 blocks what part of MHC function?

A

surface expression

33
Q

What are the four cell types needed to cooperate to generate CTLs?

A
  1. APCs
  2. TFH
  3. TH1
  4. CTL
34
Q

Explain the cell cooperation process of generating CTLs?

A
  1. APCs ingest Ags
  2. TFH TCR binds APC-Ag; releases IL2
  3. TH1: IL2 receptor, releases IFNg
  4. CTL: IFNg receptor; granule production
35
Q

What are the three cells needed to make Abs?

A
  1. APC
  2. TH2
  3. B cell
36
Q

Describe the cellular cooperation to produce antibodies?

A
  1. APC ingests Ag
  2. TH2: releases IL4;
  3. B cell: IL4 receptor; proliferates and secretes Ab
37
Q

What cells produce TNF-a and IL1?

A

APCs

38
Q

What cells produce IL2 and IFNg?

A

TH1

39
Q

What cells produce IL4?

A

Th2

40
Q

Why is route of vaccine administration important?

A

different Ig classes in different areas: mucosal vs IM vs IV

41
Q

When would you use a live virus?

A
  1. if the virus spreads via syncytia
  2. cheaper
  3. ACTIVATES CD8 CTL
  4. Ag peptides are produced INTRACELLLARLY in the infected cell cytoplasm
  5. MHC I presentation of 8-11 aa’s
42
Q

When would you use a heat killed virus?

A
  1. Safety is higher
  2. Stores better without refrigeration
  3. ACTIVATES CD4 TH1 if first exposure, TH2 if second exposure
43

How do APCs enter a lymph node?

A
