10.28.13 kin 272 class notes- T cell markerso CD8 markers Located more on cytotoxic or suppressor T cells Match to what is known as a class 1 MHC Protein- Classify proteins on foreign invaderso CD4 markers Found on helper T cells Respond to class 2 MHC protein markers- Analyze foreign invader and decide what to do with ito Classify by class I or class II Protein surrounding antigen More complicated = need antibody Less complicated = use cytotoxic system- MHC protein class  as antigen on foreign invadero Class I Kill me! I’m abnormal Less complex coatingo Class II More complex system “I’m dangerous” require a system to get rid of them please use antibodies analyzed by helper T cell – decides to go mediator route…- look at antibodieso protein derivativeo two light chains shorter, in blue in lectureo two heavy chains longer, in black in lectureo some reasons are variable and some are constanto constant sequences NEVER CHANGE makes antibody constant in its shapeo on edges amino acids are variable sections have ability to change to match that of an antigeno complement binds somewhere in the middle at a constant site attaches to antibody on heavy chaino variable regions are determined when a clone cell is madeo clone cell is made based variable regions forms plasma & memory cell plasma- mass produces antibodieso (proteins)- fast rates- secretes antibodies at 2000 antibodies per secondo clone cell – memorizes the antigenic determinants  memory B cell- remember how to make antibodies again  plasma cell- spits out antibodies- 2000/second- dies in 4-5 days- peak antibodies in 10-11 days takes 2 weeks to get rid of virus… peak in antibody numbers in 5 days the next time you are exposed because of memory B cells- different categories of antibodies (immunoglobins)o 5 classes:o 1. IgG class largest, most diverse class 80% of antibodies resistance to viruses, bacteria, toxins… ability to cross placenta during development can be handed down innate immunity Y - shapedo 2. IgE class smaller in percentage attach to surfaces of basophils enhance action of a basophil responsible for allergic reactions & inflammation Y - shapedo 3. IgD class on surface of B cells extracellular fluid to increase the activation/attack of B cell Y shapedo 4. IgM class first antibody secreted after an attack secreted for first 24 hours then regular Y shaped antibodies take over 5 Y-shaped antibodies bound together in snowflake/star shape these are secreted first because they will bind multiple antigens together- form cluster of antigens- easier to fight them off with phagocyteo 5. IgA class 2 Y-shaped antibodies with disulfide bond found in glandular secretions- mucus- tears- saliva secreted on a regular basis as a defense against pathogens- how to use antibodieso 1. Neutralize antibodies surround antigeno 2. Agglutination forming of bridges between several antibodies/antigens clump/cluster antigen stuck to them with antigen stuck to other sideo 3. Activation of complemento 4. Attract phagocyteso 5. Opsonization make things sticky outer surface adherance coated so phagocytes attach to it easiero 6. Stimulation of inflammation increase blood flow to any one areao 7. Prevention of bacterial or viral
