Term
how do CD8+ cytotoxic T cells work? |
|
Definition
killing cells containing microbes. |
|
|
Term
when a microbe resists phagocytotic killing and lives in vesicles or cytoplasm, what can they be referred to as? |
|

Term
where do you find adhesion molecules and chemokine receptors? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
where do you find adhesion molecule ligands and the production of chemokines? |
|
Definition
Endothelium. (increased expression after exposure to microbes). |
|
|
Term
where are high endothelial venules found? |
|
Definition
lymphoid organs. allow for passage of T cells into node. |
|
|
Term
how do we get T cells out of lymph node? |
|
Definition
decreasing their level of chemokine receptor expression. (same process as to how they leave the HEV and into a lymph node) |
|
|
Term
what are the different classes of molecules involved in T cell migration into/out of Lymph nodes? |
|
Definition
Chemokines, chemokine receptors, Adhesion molecules, adhesion molecule ligands. NONE of these are antigen specific. |
|
|
Term
why allow so many T cells into lymph node? |
|
Definition
maximize ability of T cells to search out microbe since frequency of effector is still relatively low. |
|
|
Term
when T cells run into an incorrect antigen, do you see an increase in adhesion molecule expression? |
|
Definition
No. The cells simply return to circulation to look for their correct antigen. |
|
|
Term
Do differentiated effector cells need co-stimulation? |
|
Definition
No! Infected cells don't express co-stimulatory molecules (likeB7). That job is for APCs. |
