IMMUNITY MEDIATED BY B LYMPHOCYTES AND ANTIBODIES
* B lymphocytes recognize extracellular pathogens and toxins transported to secondary lymphoid tissues
* Recognition stimulates proliferation and differentiation into* Plasma cells and memory B cells
* B lymphocytes generally require help from activated T lymphocytes for differentiation into plasma cells
* Plasma cells produce antibodies

ACTIVATION OF B LYMPHOCYTES
* Begins with antigen binding by receptors resulting in crosslinking of receptors
* Clustering and aggregation of receptors activates* Tyrosine kinases
* Tyrosine kinases phosphorylates Ig-alpha and Ig-beta proteins initiating intracellular signaling
* Additional signals are required and provided by* B cell co-receptor* CD4 TH2 lymphocytes

THE NATURE OF ANTIGENS AND THE ANTIBODY RESPONSE
* Thymus independent antigens (TI antigens)* Activate naïve B cells without help from CD4 cells* Classification into
* TI-1 antigens (Lipopolysaccharides)* TI-2 antigens (Polysaccharides)
* Minority of antibody production
* Thymus dependent antigens (TD antigens)* Activation of naïve B cells requires help from CD4 cells* Majority of antibody production

MECHANISM OF CD4 T CELL AND B CELL INTERACTION TO TD ANTIGENS
* TD antigens transported to secondary lymphoid tissues for meeting with CD4 T cells and B cells
* CD4 T cells are activated in T cell zone by APC
* B cells enter T cell zone and bind same antigen
* Antigen bound to B cell is internalized by* Receptor mediated endocytosis
![Page 19: IMMUNITY MEDIATED BY B LYMPHOCYTES AND ANTIBODIES](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56815e04550346895dcc4bcb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
MECHANISM OF CD4 T CELL AND B CELL INTERACTION TO TD ANTIGENS
* Antigen is processed and presented on B cell surface with MHC class II molecules
* T cell and B cell interact via CD40L and CD40
* T cell produce cytokine (interleukin-4) which activates B cell
* Cognate interaction* Interaction of B and T cells specific for same antigen

COGNATE INTERACTION OF CD4 TH2 CELLS AND B CELLS
* CI results in primary focus of B lymphoblasts in T cell area

MAST CELLS, EOSINOPHILS, BASOPHILS AND IgE ANTIBODY
* Mast cells, basophils and activated eosinophils have IgE receptor* Fc-epsilon-RI
* High affinity for Fc region of IgE
* Mast cells * Fc-epsilon-RI receptors and cytoplasmic granules are constitutive
* Cytoplasmic granules contain “inflammatory mediators”* Histamine
* Antigen binding initiates degranulation of mast cells

Fc RECEPTORS AND NATURAL KILLER CELLS
* NK cells * Express Fc-gamma-RIII receptor for IgG1 and IgG3
* Fc-gamma-RIII important in ADCC
* ADCC* Mediated primarily by NK cells* Illustrates that antibody can direct specific attack by effector cells that
have no specificity for antigen
* Mechanism* Virus infected cells express viral proteins on surface* Antibodies bind viral proteins* NK cells bind to antibodies, release granules, kill cells
