Presentation Transcript

  1. B lymphocytes and antibody production

  2. B LYMPHOCYTES: are responsible for the generation of specific humoral immunity (production of antibodies) - are under the regulation of T cells DIFFERENTIATION (antigen independent): in bone marrow changes in cell membrane molecules and in morphology precursor  pre B  mature B  plasma cell rearrangement of genetic information coding receptors for antigen (BcR) BcR complex membrane expression

  3. RECEPTORS FOR ANTIGEN ON B CELL (BcR) same genetic rules as for TcR (V, D, J recombination, C) limited selection for „self“ specific recognition of unprocessed, native antigens (spatial conformation) somatic mutation changes of BcR in the presence of antigen (affinity maturation)

  6. DIFFERENTIATION OFB CELLS (antigen independent): HLA II HLA II (CD 34 ) CD 19 rearrangement TdT CD 10 cCD 79a c CD 19 HLA II CD 19 MATURE B CELL Y CD 79a BcR CD 79b

  7. DIFFERENTIATIONB CELLS (antigen driven): takes place in secondary organs of immune system lymph node, spleen, mucosa the site of B cell- antigen encounters proliferation of B cells, terminal differentiation germinal center primary production of antibodies immunoglobuline molecules are soluble forms of BcR

  11. T- B CELLS INTERACTIONS intimate cell-cell contact B cells are able to process and present antigens to T cells cognitive interactions through BcR costimulatory interactions cytokines regulated

  13. ISOTYPIC SWITCHING primary antibodies are IgM isotype (C is the nearest to VDJ) other isotypes are generated after additional gene rearrangement regulated by T cell system: cytokines: IL-4 T-B cell contact: CD40L  CD40 development of germinal center
