1. TCR + MHC + antigen

2. TCR and MHC Structure Class I expressed by nearly all cells present antigens to T C cells cytosolic pathway (endogenous antigen presentation) Class II expressed only by APCs present antigens to T H cells endocytic pathway (exogenous antigen presentation)

9. Cytotoxic Action

11. Cytokines (Chapter 12) Cytokines Secreted protein Low molecular-weight Regulate intensity/duration of immune response Variety of effects on: -lymphocytes -other immune cells See Appendix II

12. Cytokines: Types of Action Autocrine – A condition in which the cell acted on by a cytokine is the source of the cytokine. Paracrine – Regulatory secretions that arrive by diffusion from a nearby cellular source. Endocrine – Regulatory secretions that pass from the producer cell to target cell by via the bloodstream.

13. Cytokine Attributes Pleiotropy – a given cytokine has different biological effects on different target cells.

14. Cytokine Attributes Redundancy – When two or more cytokines the mediate similar functions. Synergy - When the combined effect of two cytokines on cellular activity is greater than the effects of the individual cytokine.

15. Cytokine Attributes Antagonism – the effects of one cytokine inhibit or offset the effects of another cytokine. Target CellEffect____________

16. Cytokine Attributes Cascade Induction – when the action of one cytokine on a target cell induces that cell to produce one or more other cytokines, which in turn may induce other target cells to produce other cytokines.
