Study Notes
Cytokines and Immunology
- IFN (Interferon) family of cytokines prevents virally infected cells from replicating and making new viral particles.
- Chemokines direct the migration of leukocytes through the body.
Antigen Presentation
- Exogenous antigen binds to MHC-1 to stimulate CD8+ T cells.
- Endogenous antigen binds to MHC-1 to stimulate CD8+ T cells.
- MHC-II binds to CD4+ T cells.
Transplantation Antigen
- HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen) is the transplantation antigen.
CD Molecules
- CD stands for Cluster of Differentiation.
- CD4 is also a receptor for HIV.
- CD molecules are used to identify and classify cell surface molecules on leukocytes.
Immunological Diseases
- Ankylosing spondylitis is associated with HLA B27.
- Note: There is a mistake in the question, it should be HLA B27, not HLA A27.
MHC Restriction
- MHC restriction refers to the requirement for antigen to be recognized in association with MHC molecules.
