21
Q

Systemic activities of IL-6

A

Fever and production of acute phase proteins

22
Q

What are chemokines and what are their general role

A

Chemotactic cytokines that have a roll in the cell trafficking during inflammation

23
Q

What cells produce chemokines

A

Leukocytes, Endothelial Cells, Epitehlial cells, Fibroblasts, lympoid organs

24
Q

What activates the production of chemokines

A

TLR signaling

TNF or IL-1 signaling

25
Q

What does R activation from chemokines do?

A

modulates the cytoskelteon and integrin affinity. chemokines stimulate T cell integrins to transform from low affinity to high affinity state for ligand binding and cause clustering so tight adhesion for Tcell to APC cell

26
Q

What 2 cells do chemokines act on systemically

A

Endothelial Cells and Leukocytes

27
Q

How do chemokines work on endothelial cells

A

Chemokines can diffuse through endothelium and bind heparin sulfate on proteoglycans in lumen to be displayed to leukocytes. This increases extravasation and promotes angiogensis after tissue injury

28
Q

How do chemokines work on leukocytes

A

Alternating polymerization and depolymerization of actin

29
Q

What is the role of IL-12

A

Mediator of early innate immune response

30
Q

What produces IL-12

A

Activated dendritic cells
Activated macrophages
(In response to microbe)

31
Q

What activates the production of IL-12

A

TLR activation
LPS
Intracellular bacteria (Liseria) and viruses
APCs stimulating T cells(CD40)

32
Q

What are the 4 general systemic activities of IL-12

A

stimulates NK and both types of T cells to make IFN gamma
causes gram - sepsis
T helper differentiation(CD4+)
Induces Cytotoxic functions of NK and Cytotoxic T cells (CD8+)

33
Q

What is the result of IL-12 stimulating IFN gamma production

A

IFN stimulates macrophages to kill engulfed bacteria.

34
Q

How does IL-12 contribute to grame - sepsis

A

LArge amounts of IL-12 induce IFN gamma which with LPS induces TNF–> septic shock

35
Q

What is the role of Type I interferons

A

Interfere with viral inception, involved in early innate immune response and intracell microbes

36
Q

What produces Type I interferons a and b

A

IFN-b in systemic cells like Fibroblasts

37
Q

What activates Type I IFNs

A

Viral nucleic acids and mononuclear phagocytesCD40

38
Q

What is the local result of R activation with Type I IFNs

A

Induces proteins which inhibit viral replication machinery- paracrine activity to protect neighbors
Increases MHC I expression to increase the CTL (CD8+) mediated killing
(prevent spreading of virus)

39
Q

What are the systemic activities of IFNs

A

sequester lymphocytes in lymph nodes to enhance antigen dependent activation

40
Q

What is the role of IL-10

A

Inhibit innate immune response in macrophages and dendritic cells

41
Q

How does IL-10 inhibit innate response

A

Limit production of IL-12 thereby IFN gamma and also inhibits the expression of MHC II

42
Q

What produces IL-10

A

Activated macrophages, Regulatory T cells (CD25+) and non-lymphoid cells like keratinocytes

43
Q

What are the innate responders to Extracellular bacteria

A

TNF, IL-1 and chemokines to promote extravasation and the main responder are neutrophils

44

A

IL-12 and INF gamma to promote phagocytosis and stimulate adaptive responses
Main responder is macrophages

45
Q

What are the innate responders to Viruses

A

Type I INFs and IL-12 to inhibit replication
Activate NK and enhance cytotoxic activity
Main responder are NK cells

46
Q

What do IL-15 and IL-18 do

A

15 causes NK and T proliferation

18 causes NK and T cells to produce IFN-gamma

47
Q

Septic shock symptoms

A

Hyper or hypothermia, Tachycardia, hypotension, tachypnea, acute hyperventilation with respiratory alkalosis, mental status changes (obtundation) and a patient hx suggestive of new infection

48
Q

What is measured to Dx septic shock

A

TNF and IL6 circulating

49
Q

What test do we measure IFN gamma in blood

A

latent TB

50
Q

When a patient rejects a transplant what cytokine is detected

A

IL-2R

51
Q

Give exmaples of cytokines used for Tx

A

IFN-a for chronic hepatitis and hematologic cancers
IFN-b for multiple sclerosis
IL-12 in clinical trials to boost immunes response

52
Q

What cytokines do we block clinically

A

Basiliximab to prevent IL-2 from binding R to inhibit transplant rejection
