Tolerance Ignores bodyʼs own antigens Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity Overview of the Immune Response Purpose is to inactivate or destroy: Pathogens Abnormal cells Foreign molecules Based on activation of lymphocytes by specific antigens by antigen recognition Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Direct physical and chemical attack CELL–MEDIATED IMMUNITY ANTIGENS Phagocytes T cells SPECIFIC activated activated Bacteria DEFENSES (Immune Communication response) and feedback ANTIBODY–MEDIATED IMMUNITY Viruses B cells activated Attack by circulating antibodies Figure 14-12 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 1 of 7 ANTIGENS Bacteria Viruses Figure 14-12 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 2 of 7 ANTIGENS SPECIFIC Bacteria DEFENSES (Immune response) Viruses Figure 14-12 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 3 of 7 CELL–MEDIATED IMMUNITY ANTIGENS Phagocytes T cells SPECIFIC activated activated Bacteria DEFENSES (Immune response) Viruses Figure 14-12 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 4 of 7 CELL–MEDIATED IMMUNITY ANTIGENS Phagocytes T cells SPECIFIC activated activated Bacteria DEFENSES (Immune Communication response) and feedback ANTIBODY–MEDIATED IMMUNITY Viruses B cells activated Figure 14-12 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 5 of 7 Direct physical and chemical attack CELL–MEDIATED IMMUNITY ANTIGENS Phagocytes T cells SPECIFIC activated activated Bacteria DEFENSES (Immune Communication response) and feedback ANTIBODY–MEDIATED IMMUNITY Viruses B cells activated Figure 14-12 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 6 of 7 Direct physical and chemical attack CELL–MEDIATED IMMUNITY ANTIGENS Phagocytes T cells SPECIFIC activated activated Bacteria DEFENSES (Immune Communication response) and feedback ANTIBODY–MEDIATED IMMUNITY Viruses B cells activated Attack by circulating antibodies Figure 14-12 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 7 of 7 Specific Defenses: Immunity T CELLS & CELL MEDIATED IMMUNITY 1.T Cell Activation (T cells are usually activated before B cells) T cells donʼt recognize antigens by themselves; usually recognize them when they are bound to receptors on other cell membranes T cells have specific receptors that detect these antigens Activated T cells differentiate further Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity 2. Differentiated Activated T Cells 1. Cytotoxic (killer) T cells Provide cell-mediated immunity Track down and attack bacteria, fungi, protozoa, or foreign transplanted tissues that contain the target antigen How? Produce toxins and other chemical compounds that get rid of antigen by: disrupting metabolism, genetically modifying target cell genes, or rupturing target cell membrane Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity 2. Helper T cells Secrete cytokines (chemical messengers like hormones) 2 jobs: 1). Coordinate specific and non-specific defenses 2). Stimulate both cell-mediated and antibody- mediated immunity Once activated Helper T cells will divide to produce more Helper T cells and Memory cells. They also have a function in B cell activation (coming up later…) Specific Defenses: Immunity 3. Memory T cells Remember the activating antigen “in reserve” When same antigen appears a second time, memory cells differentiate into cytotoxic T cells and helper T cells 4. Suppressor T cells Suppress other T and B cells Limit the degree of the immune response ACTIVATION AND Infected cell CELL DIVISION Memory T Viral or cells (inactive) bacterial Class I antigen MHC protein Active cytotoxic Inactive T cell T cells cytotoxic receptor T cell Lymphotoxin Cytokine Perforin release release release Destruction of cell Disruption membrane of cell metabolism Stimulation of apoptosis Figure 14-13 Lysed cell DESTRUCTION 1 of 5 OF TARGET CELL Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Infected cell Viral or bacterial Class I antigen MHC protein Inactive T cell cytotoxic receptor T cell Figure 14-13 2 of 5 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings ACTIVATION AND Infected cell CELL DIVISION Memory T Viral or cells (inactive) bacterial Class I antigen MHC protein Active cytotoxic Inactive T cell T cells cytotoxic receptor T cell Figure 14-13 3 of 5 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings ACTIVATION AND Infected cell CELL DIVISION Memory T Viral or cells (inactive) bacterial Class I antigen MHC protein Active cytotoxic Inactive T cell T cells cytotoxic receptor T cell Lymphotoxin Cytokine Perforin release release release Destruction of cell Disruption membrane of cell metabolism Stimulation of apoptosis Figure 14-13 4 of 5 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings ACTIVATION AND Infected cell CELL DIVISION Memory T Viral or cells (inactive) bacterial Class I antigen MHC protein Active cytotoxic Inactive T cell T cells cytotoxic receptor T cell Lymphotoxin Cytokine Perforin release release release Destruction of cell Disruption membrane of cell metabolism Stimulation of apoptosis Figure 14-13 Lysed cell DESTRUCTION 5 of 5 OF TARGET CELL Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity Key Note Cell-mediated immunity depends on direct contact between cytotoxic T cells and foreign, abnormal, or infected cells. T cell activation usually involves antigen presentation by a phagocytic cell. Cytotoxic T cells destroy target cells with cytokines, lymphotoxins, or perforin. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity B CELLS & ANTIBODY-MEDIATED IMMUNITY 1. B cells are first sensitized by exposure to “their” antigen 2. Helper T cells for that antigen then activate those B cells 3. Activated B cells divide to form: Plasma cells Produce antibodies against that antigen Memory B cells Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Sensitization Activation Division and differentiation Class II Antigens MHC T cell receptor Antigen Class II MHC ANTIBODY PRODUCTION Antibodies B T Inactive B cell cell cell Antigens bound to antibody molecules Stimulation by cytokines Plasma cells Antigen binding Sensitized Helper T cell B cell Activated B cells Sensitized B cell Memory B cells (inactive) Figure 14-14 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 1 of 5 Sensitization Antigens Class II MHC Antibodies Inactive B cell Antigens bound to antibody molecules Antigen binding Sensitized B cell Figure 14-14 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 2 of 5 Sensitization Activation Class II Antigens MHC T cell receptor Antigen Class II MHC Antibodies B T Inactive B cell cell cell Antigens bound to antibody molecules Antigen binding Sensitized Helper T cell B cell Sensitized B cell Figure 14-14 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 3 of 5 Sensitization Activation Division and differentiation Class II Antigens MHC T cell receptor Antigen Class II MHC Antibodies B T Inactive B cell cell cell Antigens bound to antibody molecules Stimulation by cytokines Antigen binding Sensitized Helper T cell B cell Activated B cells Sensitized B cell Memory B cells (inactive) Figure 14-14 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 4 of 5 Sensitization Activation Division and differentiation Class II Antigens MHC T cell receptor Antigen Class II MHC ANTIBODY PRODUCTION Antibodies B T Inactive B cell cell cell Antigens bound to antibody molecules Stimulation by cytokines Plasma cells Antigen binding Sensitized Helper T cell B cell Activated B cells Sensitized B cell Memory B cells (inactive) Figure 14-14 Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings 5 of 5 Specific Defenses: Immunity Antibody Structure and Function Two pairs of parallel polypeptide chains Four Fixed segments Provides basic structure Four Variable segments Provides specific antigen-binding structure Antigen-antibody complex forms Antigen determinant site binds to antibody Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity Antibody Structure Figure 14-15 Specific Defenses: Immunity Classes of Antibodies Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Resistance to pathogens Immunoglobulin M (IgM) First antibody secreted Immunoglobulin A (IgA) Found in glandular secretions Immunoglobulin E (IgE) Stimulates inflammation Immunoglobulin D (IgD) Found on surface of B cells Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity How Antibodies Can Eliminate Antigens 1. Neutralization -- bind to viruses or bacteria making them incapable of attaching to a cell 2. Precipitation -- 1 antibody can bind 2 antigens together and create a large complex. When it is insoluble in a body fluid (like bacterial toxin) it settles out 3. Agglutination -- formation of large complexes ; clumping of RBCʼs when incompatable blood types are mixed Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity 4. Complement System activation 5. Attraction of phagocytes 6. Stimulation of phagocytosis 7. Stimulation of inflammation Specific Defenses: Immunity Key Note Antibody-mediated immunity depends on specific antibodies from plasma cells derived from activated B cells by (1) antigen recognition, through binding to surface antibodies, and (2) stimulation by a helper T cell activated by the same antigen. The antibodies bind to the target antigen and either inhibit it, destroy it, remove it from solution, or promote its phagocytosis. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity Primary and Secondary Immune Response Primary response—Antibodies produced by plasma cells after first exposure to antigen Secondary response—Maximum antibody levels produced by subsequent exposure to the same antibody Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity The Primary and Secondary Immune Responses Figure 14-16 Specific Defenses: Immunity Key Note Immunization produces a primary response to a specific antigen. If the same antigen is encountered at a later date, it triggers a powerful secondary response that usually prevents infection and disease. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity Hormones of the Immune System Interleukins (IL) Sensitize T cells Stimulate B cells Enhance non-specific defenses Interferons Slow the spread of viruses locally Tumor necrosis factors (TNF) Slows growth, kills tumor cells Phagocytic regulators Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Specific Defenses: Immunity Key Note Viruses replicate inside cells, whereas bacteria usually live outside. Antibodies work outside of cells, so they are primarily effective against bacteria rather than viruses. T cells, NK cells, and interferons are the primary defenses against viral infection.
