Lymphocyte activation – the requirements Signal 1 Signal 2 Models of T-B, APC-T-B cell cooperation DC – the initiator of immunity Activator of naïve T cells The special Ag processing & presenting machine The “‘Self’ vs ‘Non-self’” and “Danger” models Summary of the last lecture:DC & the initiation of immune responses
Inflammation & “danger signals”– Immune System Turned on by “Danger” (P Matzinger) • Clinical signs of inflammation: • erythema, swelling, heat & pain • Mediators: • Cytokines: IL-1, IL-6, TNFa (endo-pyrogen) & chemokines • Acute phase proteins, PG, histamine • Bacterial products: LPS • endogenous & exogenous “danger signals” • Immunological effects: • vasodialation, vascular permeability • cell adhesion, chemotaxis – cell mobilization & immobilization • DC activation

Two DC subsets in rat • OX41+CD4+ DC • Smaller with short/fine processes • Contain low/no NSE reactivity • (Liu L.M. et. al. J. Immunol. 1998) • OX41-CD4- DC • larger with long/big processes • Contain strong NSE reactivity

Intestinal DC populations OX41+ DC OX41- DC Express high levels of MHC Class II Express CD80 & CD86 (B7.1, B7.2) Acquire enteric antigens Strong APC Weak APC Not present in T cell areas Continuously transport under steady state self-Ag derived from apoptotic IEC to T cell areas under steady ‘non-danger’ state
