| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Cytotoxic T-cells aka: | KILLER T-CELLS (NOT same as NK cells) |
| CYTOTOXICCells - can directly attack cells infected w: 5+ | viruses, parasites, cancers, bacteria, transplants, etc... |
| Primary target-CYTOTOXIC cells: | virus-infected cells |
| Cytotoxic T-cells circulate: | in/out of blood vessels |
| CYTOTOXIC Cells include: | (CD8,T8,CTL,Tc) and (ANaB T-cell) |
| Sequence of attack of Cytotoxic T-cells is: | 1)Bind to target & release PERFERIN, LYMPHOTOXIN or TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR (TNF) 2)Detach & search for a new cell 3)Perforin,lymphotoxin or TNF will cause lysis |
| Perforin provokes cell lysis by: | creating transmembrane pores |
| Lymphotoxin causes lysis by: | fragmenting target cells DNA |
| TNF causes lysis by an: | unknown mechanism that cell death within 48-72 hours |
| CYTOTOXIC t-Cells are CD: | CD8 |
| HELPER T-CELLS: | CD4, Regulatory (CD4,T4,Th) (ANaB T-cell) |
| Helper T-cells chemically or directly stimulate: | proliferation of other T-cells & B-cells that are already bound to the antigen |
| Helper T-cells-stimulated to work: | by CYTOKINES called lymphokines |
| LYMPHOKINES are hormone like: | soluble glycoproteins released by activated T-cells, specifically INTERLEULIN-2 |
| Lymphokines released by helper T-cells mobilize: | immune cells & macrophages, attract other types of WBC's & amplify nonspecific defenses |
| Some ThCD4's become: | T-cell memory (Tm) cells |
| Th's are said to unleash the: | protective potential of B-cells |
| B-cells are activated as soon as: | they encounter an antigen |
| Some T-cells, require two: | controlling steps to become completely activated |
| Helper T-cells assist both T-cells & B-cells by providing: | regulation for thier activation |
| There are 2 steps to activation: | ADHESION & C0-STIMULATION |
| ADHESION: an | antigen is presented & attached to a T-cell or B-cell membrane |
| CO-STIMULATION: The CD28 receptor on a: | cytotoxic T-cell attaches to a B7 receptor on a macrophage or receives chemical activation foam a diff T-cell or a B-cell |
| Once stimulated (during co-stimulation) it can: | proliferate and produce many cytotoxic T-cella as well as T-memory cells |
| ANERGY refers to the fact that: | if a T or B cell does not get proper co-stimulation it will not activate |
| SUPPRESSOR T-Cells are: | regulatory (CD8,Ts) (ANaBT-cell) |
| Which T-cell has inhibitory action and what do they do: | supressor; they release luymphokines that suppress both B & T cells. |
| Suppressor (regulatory) T Cells are: | vital for shutting down immune response when emergency ends |
| CYTOTOXIC T-cells AKA: | Effectors |
