Q

T cellls possessing TCR complementraty to class IIMHC molecule/viral peptide complex are activated and become what

A

Helper T cell

18
Q

Virgin B cells acquiring viral particles through attachment to IgM or IgD process and present to ___, in turn to receive a positive growth and differentiation signals

19
Q

IgM antiviral antibody is produced as a result whilst some B cells differentiate and classs switch, leading later to production of high affinity __

20
Q

What surface molecules contribute to interaction of TCR with APC

A

CD4/MHCII and CD80/86 to CD28

21
Q

CTL recognize viral peptides cross presented by _

22
Q

TH and CTL leave the lymph node via the draining lymphatics towards other lymph nodes, ultimately to enter the ___

23
Q

When TH and CTL leave node what are their attributes

A

Have virus specific TCR
Up regulation adhesion molecules to allow migration into the inflamed tissues
Upregulated cytokine production

24
Q

NK cells may be recruited at two points during viral infection

A

Early, innate antiviral role following activation by epithelium derived cytokines
Or latera stage activated by TH1 cells specific for virus

25
Activated CTL kill virally infected cells | Local TH1 and TH2 calls now organize the local antiviral immune response
Ok
26
Virus infected cells secrete and express viral proteins.
May be neutralized or removed by antibody in the form of immune complexes, which are cleared or antibody int he form of immune complexes, which are cleared, or antibody may be used to guide Fc receptor expressing NK cells
27
After resolution of the viral infection, what is there
Virus specific memory t and B cells reside in nodes, spleen and bone marrow Plasma cells
28
Primarybacterial infection
Break in epithelial surface allows bacteria entry and proliferation
29
Surface __ may activate the alternative complement pathway or mannan-binding lectin pathway leading to bacterial lysis
LPS
30
Other complement activators
C reactive protein which binds bacterial coat polysaccharides
31
Mas cell granulation does what
Enhances blood flow, edema
32
How is increased blood flow and edema perceived
Itchiness and irritation int he inflamed area
33
__, __ neutrophils adhere to the vein wall as locally released chemokines and bacterial derived molecules activate both the endothelium and the neutrophils, resulting in adhesion between the two
Rolling, marginating
34
What bacterial products attract neutrophils
F-MLP, complement fragments like C5a and chemokines IL8/CXCL8
35
Opsonised bacteria are rapidly engulfed and killed by ___
Neutrophils
36
Dendritic cells do what
Engulf and internalize bacteria and are activated via pattern recognition receptors and migrate via the lymphatics
37
Bacterial antigens are processed and presented in local lymph nodes
Ok
38
__ cells are recruited and activated by APC in lymph node nad B cells, promoting the production of bacteria-specific antibodies
Th
39
Naive T cells become differentiated towards TH1 and TH2 according to the dendritic cell signals
Initially IgM is produced followed by colonial expansion and switching to other classes
40
Early antibacterial antibody is __
IgM
41
IgM is a __ complement activator
Potent
42
Following resolution of bacterial infection
Memory cells and production of antibody Bacterial debris removed by local neutrophils or by antibody soluble immune complexes
