Ch8 The development of lymphocytes
Immune system Design for living Boundary Self/non-self recognition
Ags………. Innate immunity Germline-encoded receptors Adaptive immunity Gene rearranged receptors: TCR/BCR Lymphopoiesis
B/T cell development Cells Microenvironment AgR
Adaptive immunity 1. Antigen specificity 2. Diversity 3. Immunological memory 4. Self tolerance
Aim of development • Production of AgR 2. Functional Ag recognition Self Ag? MHC-restricted?
Hematopoiesis Central lymphoid organs Microenvironment Commitment Productive rearrangement? Cell survival & death
One cell one AgR Clone Fate
B-cell development T-cell development Positive & negative selection
B cell development Die Microenvironment Survive
Transcription factors Proteins, receptors
The dependence on bone marrow stromal cells Adhesion molecules Early stages Growth factors Cell-cell interaction B cell commitment Proliferation (SDF-1) Constitutive production
Heavy chain One receptor on one cell Allelic exclusion
Self-reactivity Fate The presence of autoreactive lymphocytes in periphery

After TCR rearrangement Microenvironment MHC restriction Self tolerance
Positive selection : MHC restriction Cortex MHCI-CD8 MHCII-CD4
Positive selection (T cell precursor) T cells : thymus MHC restriction
Ag encounter in periphery Bone marrow-derived DC/macrophages
Bone marrow chimera Thymic non-lymphoid stroma Bone marrow-derived APC
Negative selection: self tolerance Bone marrow-derived
Self antigen (encoded by the host’s genome) Negative selection : Self tolerance AIRE expression on thymic medulary cells Medulary epithelial marker MTS10 AIRE (Autoimmune regulator) AIRE regulates the expression of ubiquitous self antigens & a wide variety of tissue-restricted self Ag (e.g. pancreas, brain) at low levels in the thymus
