25
Molecules the body recognizes as foreign and worthy of attack (trigger an immune response)
Properties of antigens
26
Examples of properties of antigens
Components of cell wall, caspsule, pili, flagella, surface, proteins, allergens, pollen, dust, and some food
27
Antigens recongnized by three-dimensional regions called
epitopes
28
Molecules too small to have antigenic properties, unless bound by a larger molecule (protein)
Haptens
29
toxins, secretions, compomemts of cell walls, membranes, flagella, and pili
Exogenous antigens
30
Molecules from pathogens that reproduce inside of a host cell (therefore only recognized if antigens are incorporated on cytoplasmic membrane)
Endogenous antigens
31
Molecules derived from normal cellular processes
Auto-Antigens
32
Arise and mature in the red bone marrow Found primarily in the spleen, lymph nodes, and MALT Small percentage of B-cells circulate in the blood
B-cells and Antibodies
33
Major function of B-cells is the
Secretin of antibodies
34
B-cell receptor include
``` 4 polypeptide chair 2 heavy chains 2 light chains 2 arms (w/ variable regions) transmembrane protein ```
35
Immunoglobulin's similar to BCRs
Antibodies
36
Antibodies are secreted by activated B-cells called
Plasma cells
37
Antibodies have identical antigen-binding sites and antigen specificty as the
BCR of the activated B-cell
38
Antigen-binding sites are complementary to epitopes
Antibody functions
39
Antibody functions
``` Activation Neutralization Opsonization Killing by oxidation Aggluination ```
40
Of complement cascade and inflammation
Activation
41
Bind to critical portion of toxin
Neutralization
42
Stimulate phagocytosis
Opsonization
43
Catalyze H2O, kills bacteria
Killing by oxidation
44
Clump together
Agglutination
45
Anitbies coat target cell, NK cells bind to Fc region of antibody and lyse target cell using Perforin and granzyme
Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC)
46
B-Lymphocyes (B-cells) and anitibodies
- Classes of antibodies (some levels of immune response variable) - Class involved in the immun response depends on the type of antigen, portal of entry and antibody finction needed
47
First anitbody produced, some in cytoplasmic membrance as BCR, secreted as immune response
IgM
48
Most commone and longest-lasting antibody, can leave blood vessels, present in inflammation, cross the placenta
IgG
49
Associated with body secretions, mucous membranes, mammary glands, can pass to offspring/Breakmilk
IgA
50
Acts as signals, attach to receptors (eosinophils) and trigger an immune response to parasitic infections and alleries
IgE
51
Exact functions is not known
IgD
52
Produced in the red bone marrow and mature in the thymus
T-Cells
53
Circulate in the lymph and blood and migrate to the lymph nodes, spleen, and peyer's patches
T-cells
54
Antigen-binding sites are complementary to epitopes
T-cells
55
Have T-cell receptors (TCRs) on their cytoplamic membrane each TCR unquie to each T-cells Variations between T-cells
T-Cells
56
TCRs do not recognize epitopes directly, they only bind epitpes associates with a MHC -TCRs act primarily against cells that harbor intracellular pathogen
Specificity of the T-Cells Receptors (TCR)
