Type II -antibodies binding to cells or tissues -cytotoxic -IgM and IgG Type III -immune complex mediated destruction of tissues -IgM and IgG

Type II vs Type III Hyper-Sensitivity

Type III Hypersensitivity -caused by high levels of circulating immune complexes (IgG or IgM) -systemic, rather than organ specific damage -circulating immune complexes overwhelm the immune system's ability to remove them -deposits in various tissues (skin, glomeruli, blood vessels, synovium, and lungs) and activate complement -neutrophils try to remove the complexes and this results in degranulation and tissue damage

Type III Hypersensitivity -caused by high levels of circulating _____________ _______________ (IgG or IgM) -__________, rather than organ specific damage -circulating immune complexes overwhelm the immune system's ability to remove them -deposits in various tissues (skin, glomeruli, blood vessels, synovium, and lungs) and activate __________ -____________ try to remove the complexes and this results in degranulation and tissue damage

Type IV Hypersensitivity Reaction -only HS reaction that is T cell mediated -reactions typically take 24-48 hours -classic examples are contact dermatitis and the TB skin test -non-harmul components (pentadecacetechol from poison ivy) complex with proteins in the skin and get taken up by APCs and presented to T cells -TH1 response develops resulting in activation of macrophages via IFN-gamma resulting in an inflammatory response that is unwarranted

Type IV Hypersensitivity Reaction -only HS reaction that is ________ ________ -reactions typically take 24-48 hours -classic examples are contact dermatitis and the _______________ -non-harmul components (pentadecacetechol from _______ ________) complex with proteins in the skin and get taken up by ___________ and presented to T cells -______ response develops resulting in activation of macrophages via _______________ resulting in an inflammatory response that is unwarranted

What are some concerns with polysaccharide vaccines?

Cholera, Plaque, Pertussis, Typhoid, Influenza, Polio (IPV), Rabies, and Hepatitis A

What are some examples of Inactivated (dead) vaccines?

Advantages -mimic natural infection (replication in all the places it normally would) -builds better memory response -individuals who are seroconvert become immune with just one dose Disadvantages -reversion to virulent form (1 in 4 million): MMR vaccine uses RNA viruses that lack proofreading -contaminated viruses: ex. Simian virus in oral polio vaccine --> cancer in humans -complications similar to natural disease: fetus and mother may not be perfect immunological match, which is why pregnant women don't receive attenuated vaccines -measles: Subacute Panencephalitis

What are the advantages and disadvantages of attenuated vaccines?

1. Defects in Phagocytic Cell Function 2. Defects in Complement 3. Defects in B Cell Development or Function 4. Defects in T Cell Development or Function 5. Combined B and T Cell Deficiencies

What are the five types of immunodeficiencies?

Rolling -selectins on the lymphocyte bind CD34 on the vascular endothelium -force of blood pressure rolls the lymphocyte along the vascular endothelium Attachment -above interaction activates beta-2 integrins Arrest and Adhesion -beta 2 integrins change conformation and bind very strongly to ICAM molecules on the surface of the vascular endothelium (tight binding) Transendothelial Migration

What do MALT, BALT, and GALT stand for? Why are they important?

Paracortex -primarily T cells and IDC (increased class II) -neighbors to B cell area (good for activation) Medulla -plasma cells secreting antibody -where mature/effector cells concentrate before leaving through the efferent lymphatic -effector cells

What do the paracortex and medulla of the lymph nodes contain?

Plasma Cell

What is an effector B cell?

Diagnosis for Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) -WBCs separated from blood sample and placed with NBT -if NBT turns blue for positive, this means NADPH oxidase is present and the patient is negative for CGD -if the NBT turns yellow for negative, this means NADPH oxidase is lacking and the patient is positive for CGD

What is nitroblue tetrazolium reduction (NBT) used as a diagnosis for? How are the results read?

X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia -mutation in tyrosine kinase important in the development of pre-B cells to mature B cells

What is the only humoral defect condition in which there are no B cells?

Mutations in RAG-1/2, ADA are autosomal recessive whereas mutations in the IL-2R gamma chain (shared by several cytokines) are X-linked -recurrent infections with bacteria, fungi, and viruses

What mutations can cause SCID?

Men x-linked recessive immunodeficiency increased frequency of infection from catalase positive organisms

What population is most susceptible to chronic granulomatous disease (CGD)?

Toxoid Vaccine

What type of vaccine protects against a specific disease, but not against the bacteria?

A cell that actually does something. Effector B cell = plasma cell Effector Tc Cell has been activated by IL-2 and kills stuff An effector helper cell would be a subset of the T cells (TH1 or TH2) that releases cytokines to have a specific effect on the immune system

What's an effector cell?

DTaP: Diptheria, Tetanus, acellular Pertussis -inactivated; toxoid -exotoxins -prevents the disease, but not the infection, b/c the vaccine protects against the toxin -ex. the vaccine protects against tetanus, but not other C. tetani infections -anti toxoid antibodies bind to toxin and neutralize effects -difficult to make in high quantities -cloning

What's an example of a toxoid vaccine? How do they work?

-failure of the immune system -reactions that are unwarranted and harmful to the host -the immune response itself is responsible for induction of disease -requires sensitization and is antigen specific -classified by Gell and Coombs (4 types)

What's hypersensitivity?

They're TCR delta-gamma instead of alpha-beta -delta-gamma T cells don't develop in the thymus and are thought to instead develop in the gut -can be found in patients with DiGeorge's

What's special about intraepithelial T cells?

-B cells located in the marginal zones -T cells located in the Periarteriolar Lymphnoid Sheath (PALS; sheath of lymphocytes that surround the splenic artery); PALS composed of white pulp

Where are B cells and T cells located in the spleen?

-if the antigen penetrates the tissues, it will be cleared by the draining lymph nodes -if antigen enters the blood, it will be cleared by the spleen, which contains an end artery -if antigens enter the GI or respiratory tract, they will be cleared by the mucosal associated lymphoid tissue (MALT)

Where do antigens go when they enter the body?

Immunocompromised individuals and pregnant women.

Which populations should never receive a live, attenuated vaccine?

-polysaccharide vaccine, so T Helper cells aren't involved, meaning no memory response can be formed

Why are adults administered the pneumococcal vaccine?

Prostaglandin and leukotriene are not prestored, they are made de novo from arachidonic acid during the inflammatory response The effects of prostaglandin and leukotriene are similar to histamine, but more potent and longer lasting

Why are the effects of prostaglandin and leukotriene not felt immediately, like histamine?

All the WBCs head to the secondary lymphoid tissues in search of the antigen

Why does the circulating WBC count drop a day or two after someone is sick?

-prevents invasion -protects against the most virulent strains, but still allows children to build their own immunity

Why does the pediatric pneumococcal vaccine only protect against 14 capsular serotypes?

Serotype B's capsule is not immunogenic Separate vaccine for serotype B, which is the most common strain of N. meningitidis

Why is N. meningitidis Serotype B not included in the MCV4 vaccine?

No, infants are largely protected with maternal IgG until about 6 months of age, so the maternal IgG would just bind to the vaccine. This is why most live, attenuated vaccines are administered between 12 and 15 months when maternal IgG has been depleted.

Would a vaccine like MMR be effective if administered to a 4 month old infant? When are most live, attenuated vaccines administered?

X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia -mutation in a tyrosinase kinase important in the development of pre-B cells to mature B cells -only humoral defect with no B cells -patients have difficulty with encapsulated bacteria like H. influenzae, S. pneumoniae, S. pyogenes, and S. aureus -patients exhibit increased severity of viral infections that effect the gut (enteroviruses) -recurrent mucosal infections -usually appears around 6 months of age and 80% present with pneumonia and other sinopulmonary infections -B cells CD19 negative -pre B cells in the bone marrow, but none in the periphery
