Adaptive Immunity-Antigen specific by Mind Map: Adaptive Immunity-Antigen specific

1. Inhibit responses of T & B Cells

2. Cytotoxic T Cells-Attack and destroy infected & abnormal cells displaying antigen

2.1. Secrete poisonous lymphotoxin-destroy target cells

2.2. Release perforin- to destroy the antigenic plasma membrane

2.3. Activate genes in target cell- causes cells to die

3. Memory Tc Cells-Await reappearance of the antigen

4. Suppressor T Cells-Moderate immune response by T cells and B cells

5. Immunity one developed throughout life

6. 4 Properties of immunity

6.1. Specificity

6.2. Versatality

6.3. Memory

6.4. Tolerance

7. Activation By Class I MHC Proteins(cell Mediated) ** Found in membranes of all nucleated cells

7.1. Phagocytes activated & T cells activated

7.2. CD8 T Cells

7.2.1. Found on cytotoxic T cells and suppressor T cells

7.2.2. Respond to antigens on Class I MHC proteins

8. Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs)

9. Indicates that the cell is infected or otherwise abnormal

10. CD8 T Cells

11. Direct Physical & Chemical attack

12. Destruction of Antigen

13. CD8 or CD4 markers** Bind to CD3 receptor complex and prepare for cell activation

14. Active immunity-develops in response to antigen exposure

14.1. Natural acquired active immunity-Develops after exposure to antigen in environment

14.2. Artificial induced active immunity- Develops after administration of an antigen to prevent disease

15. Passive Immunity-Produced by transfer of antibodies from another source

15.1. Naturally acquired passive immunity- Conferred by transfer of maternal antibodies across placenta or in breast milk

15.2. Artificially induced passive immunity- Conferred by administration of antibodies to combat infection

15.2.1. New Material

16. Activated by Class II MHC Proteins (Antibody- Mediated)** Found in membranes of antigen presenting cells (APCs) **Found in lymphocytes

17. Indicates the presence of pathogens, toxin, or foreign proteins

18. CD4 T cells

18.1. Found on T cells

18.2. Respond to antigens on class II MHC proteins

19. Helper T cells-Stimulate immune response by T Cells & B Cels

20. Memory TH Cells- Await reappearance of the antigen

21. Activate B Cells

22. Secretion of antibodies

22.1. Antibody structure-2 parallel pairs polypeptide* 1 pair of heavy chain & 1 pair of light chains

22.1.1. IgG- is the largest & most diverse of antibodies

22.1.1.1. Anti-Rh antibodies produced by Rh-are also IgG antibodies & produce hemolytic disease of the newborn

22.1.1.2. Can cross the placenta & maternal IgG provides passive immunity to fetus durning embryological development

22.1.1.3. is the largest & most diverse of antibodies

22.1.2. IgE

22.1.2.1. Important in the allergic response

22.1.2.2. The cell stimulated to release histamine & other chemicals that accelerate inflammation in the immediate area

22.1.3. IgD

22.1.3.1. Binding can play a role in the sensitization of the B cell involved

22.1.4. IgM

22.1.4.1. Is the first class of antibody secreted after an antigen is encountered

22.1.4.2. Peak response can take 2-wks to develop

22.1.4.3. The anti-A & anti -B antibodies responsible for agglutination of incompatible blood types are IgM antibodies

22.1.4.4. Produced faster than IgG

22.1.5. IgA

22.1.5.1. Found primarily in glandular secretions such as mucus, tears, and semen

23. Production of Plasma cells

24. Production of B cells
