Highlights of Immune System
Topic Outline Overview of the Immune System
1st and 2nd lines of Defense
The Immune System B cells The antibody & antibody diversity Vaccinations Breast Feeding Diagnostic applications T cells Allergies

Immune System
B cells
T cells
Lymph nodes are contain high concentrations lymphocytes
Let’s look more closely at the B lymphocytes
B Cell: humoral or antibody mediated immunity
ANTIBODIES=IMMUNOGLOBULINS
Humoral Immunity
Matures in bone marrow Moves to lymph nodes (& other locations) Secretes antibodies “as plasma cell” Also creates “memory” B cells
B-lymphocyte
CLONAL SELECTION
Different classes of immunoglobulins or antibodies
IgM
IgG
IgA
IgDIgE
Antibody Diversity
Antibody genes are composed of segments
V J C
Somatic Recombination

How are vaccinations related to immunity?
Active and Passive
Active Vaccinations: Antibody Production
Memory Cells!
Immune Benefits of Breast Feeding
IgA’s
The next part gets tricky
Onto T Cells
All T cells require cell to cell contact

CD8+CD4+
MHC=major histocompatibility complex: gene found on chromosome 6
Tissue Transplantation MHC proteins differ between individuals
Helper T Cell and MHC II
Antigen presentation
Cytotoxic T Cell and MHC I
Antigen presentation
CD8+ cell
Cytotoxic T cell= CD8+
