Participant List Monday August 25th, 8 PM: To Enter your name on your NXT Response Transmitter(Revised August 20, 2014) For NXT Transmitter (Off-white) Press grey button with white oval in the middle Get screen with a wrench on it Press upper right button (square with two bubbles) “Find Channel”. Use Channel 41 Press Left Arrow next to grey button once to get to “Your ID” (Your Name goes here) Grey Button (Left arrow under abc will clear characters) Enter your name (first five letters OK) using the letters shown on each key. If you want a “c”, hit the abc key three times in quick succession. When your name is entered hit the grey button. You will get a smiley face.
To Respond to Turning Point Questions in Class: Using the NXT Transmitter (Revised August 20, 2014) • Put your last name onto your NXT transmitter under “Your ID” • If you borrow a transmitter from us, fill out an index card so we get your name, take instruction form, please leave bio1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 on the borrowed NXT transmitters • We are using Channel 41 in this room. NXT should find Channel 41 when you hit “Find Channel”. You get a smiley face. • With the NXT transmitter you have to hit the square response button in the upper left below the screen in order to get to the blank screen that is presentation mode. • Screen will show whether your response has been received. Your device will also show a check when your name (or the bio number) has been received. • If there is a problem, we will provide a back-up form for you to hand in your response. Back-up responses must be handed in while the question is open on the screen. Yifan will give back-up forms and collect them. Back-up forms should be a rarity. If you forget your transmitter you can borrow one from us at the start of class.

Immunobiology: Why Do We Want to Know? Why Does it Matter? What’s special about immunology and the immune response system? Why does Syracuse University have an Immunology Policy? Why did we all get this mailing here at SU a few years ago?See next three slides…
SU NEWS ALERT: Flu Information for the Fall SemesterAugust 26, 2009: Syracuse University continues to monitor developments related to the spread of flu—both the common seasonal flu and the H1N1 flu virus (popularly known as “swine flu”). The University’s goal is to work with all members of the community to reduce the effects of flu and flu-like illness, while maintaining the academic mission and business functions of the campus. Members of SU’s multi-departmental Pandemic Flu Preparedness Task Force convene regularly on flu planning, and task force representatives met recently with Onondaga County Health Department officials for the latest in an ongoing dialogue. In addition, last week the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued new guidance for colleges and universities (http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/schools/) that is currently being reviewed by University officials for possible modifications to the University’s flu strategies. Widespread flu-like illness is expected over the next several months, with H1N1 flu intermingling with seasonal (“regular”) flu during 2009-10. Based on current information from health officials, H1N1-specific testing will not be routinely available, so it is unlikely that health professionals will know whether a specific individual with flu-like symptoms is ill with seasonal flu or H1N1. Based on the current behavior of H1N1 in the Southern Hemisphere, H1N1 is expected to cause mild to moderate (rather than severe) illness in most persons infected with this virus in the United States this fall. All students, faculty and staff are encouraged to receive the seasonal flu vaccine (a “flu shot”). Opportunities to obtain the flu vaccine will be available on and off campus beginning in early fall and continuing while supplies last. Information on vaccine availability will be posted on the Syracuse University Preparing for the Flu website (http://sunews.syr.edu/h1n1flu/index.html). When H1N1 vaccine becomes available, the University anticipates it will be administered on campus to eligible (based on criteria established by the CDC) students. Opportunities for faculty and staff to receive the vaccine will be available in the community.
All persons 50 years and older, and persons younger than 50 years who have certain medical conditions, should receive the Pneumovax 23 vaccine from their health care provider (if they have not already done so) to reduce the risk of pneumonia following infection with H1N1. Persons who are ill with flu-like symptoms will typically be advised to stay at home or in their residence hall room until 24 hours after fever (100 degrees Fahrenheit or 38 degrees Celsius) symptoms abate without the aid of fever-reducing medications. Individuals with flu-like symptoms may be advised to wear a mask when it is necessary to be in public places, such as a dining hall. At this time, the University does not anticipate closure or severe disruption of the academic year due to H1N1, although planning is taking place to diminish the impact of potential interruptions of work or services due to faculty and staff illness, the necessity for faculty and staff to care for ill family members, and similar situations. All members of the University community should practice good hygiene such as proper hand washing, cough etiquette and other flu mitigation strategies. Individuals are also encouraged to take personal responsibility for the sanitization of frequently/commonly used surfaces such as doorknobs, keyboards, copiers, remote controls and desks within their personal living, learning and work areas to minimize the transmission of virus. Hand sanitizing products are available for purchase by schools/colleges/departments from Materials Distribution through the Materials Distribution Online Ordering System (http://mdoos.syr.edu/). In addition, students should ask instructors about class attendance policies, and faculty and staff should work with their school/college/department to review policies regarding flexible work, paid time off, leaves of absence, and expectations for continuity of operations and services.

Influenza: Types A, B, and C What Is Type A Flu Virus?Type A flu or influenza A viruses are capable of infecting people as well as animals; although it is more common for people to suffer the ailments associated with this type of flu. Wild birds commonly act as the hosts for this flu virus. Type A flu virus is constantly changing and is generally responsible for the large flu epidemics. What Is Type B Flu Virus?Unlike type A flu viruses, type B flu is found only in humans. Type B flu may cause a less severe reaction than type A flu virus, but occasionally, type B flu can still be extremely harmful. Influenza type B viruses are not classified by subtype and do not cause pandemics. How Is Type C Flu Virus Different From the Others?Influenza C viruses are also found in people. They are, however, milder than either type A or B. People generally do not become very ill from the influenza type C viruses. Type C flu viruses do not cause epidemics.
What’s the Big-Deal About “H5N1” or “H7N9”? H =Hemagglutinin variant N = Neuraminidase variant Different isoforms of proteins and enzymes needed for Viral attachment to target cells entry into the cells and for viral release from infected cells. Are present on viral envelop . Are specific antigens that can generate a protective immune response if the antibodies are present ahead of time. Basis for specific prophylatic vaccines (Prophylactic = protective, preventative rather than therapeutic)

What’s Special about the Immune Response? What it has to do? Distinguish pathogenic threat from symbiotic beneficial organisms, and from non-pathogenic elements. Distinguish Self from Non-Self. Distinguish Normal Self from Pathological Self. Remember what it has seen. Turn on when needed, turn off when no longer needed. Be controllable when we don’t want a response.
What if those elements of the Immune Response Don’t Work Correctly? Failure to Recognize? Immune deficiency diseases. Attacking Self? Allergy, hypersensitivity, auto-immunity Failure to Distinguish Self from Altered Self: Cancer Immune Evasion. Failure to Remember what it has seen: Immune-unresponsiveness; Vaccine Immunology Failure to Turn-off: Inflammation, Hypersensitivity Need to control when we don’t want a response: Transplantation Medicine
What’s Special about the Immune Response? How does it do what it has to do? Cell Sociology in Metazoan Evolution How do cells “talk” to each other from a distance? How does an organ system work when the system is discontinuous? Cell signaling in multicellular organisms How do cells “remember” stuff?

What’s Special about the Immune Response? What it has to do? How it does what it has to do? How it is set up? Questions: Where is the heart? Where is the liver? Where is the digestive system? Where is the respiratory system? Where is the immune response system? More Questions: Where is the nervous system? Where is the circulatory system? Where is the lymphatic drainage system? What happens if they aren’t continuous?

What the Immune Response Has to Do: Recognize and respond to external pathogens. Recognize and respond to infected cells. Recognize and respond to transformed self (cancer) cells. Participate in tissue remodeling and senescence. Know where the challenge is. Know how to mount an effective response. Know how to get the effector response to the right place. Respond without damaging normal cells and tissues. Know how much response is needed. Shut down when the response is completed. Remember previous response and respond more quickly effectively the next time around. Do not react against normal self. (no autoimmunity). Do not react against something that is in fact not a problem until the immune responds reacts (no allergies). Accept medically needed transplants
Infection in thumb: That there is a peripheral challenge It’s in the thumb! Which thumb? (Where the challenge is located?) What is the challenge? What do I need to respond with? How do I get it there? How much response do I need? When should I shut it down? What do I do if it comes back? What if I don’t pick up the signals? What if I get it wrong and respond incorrectly? How is the Immune response set-up to do all of these things? How does the immune response know where the problem is? Cytokines, Chemokines, Receptors (Chapter 4) See Appendix I, Pages A1 to A29, 540 CD Antigens See Appendix II, Cytokines, Pages B1 to B6, 58 Cytokines Appendix III, Chemokines and Receptors, p.
