23 types of immune cells Nature Reviews-Immunology Mast Cells Mast Cell help to recruit other leukocytes 1. derived from haematopoietic progenitor cell, 2. circulate in the blood in an immature form, 3. migrating to tissues (abundant beneath epithelial surface), 4. where they undergo maturation release Histamine, Heparin (mast cells and basophils share many common features) Basophils leave the bone marrow already mature

24 types of immune cells III. Effector Cells Natural Killer Cells kill cells they detect as foreign either directly or via antibodydependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity NK cell attacks a cancer cell a functional definition: cells with this activity are capable of lysing damaged, virus-infected cells and tumour cells Unlike T lymphocytes, they do not need an education in the thymus to do this, hence the term natural have a very granular cytoplasm- cytotoxic granules (PERFORIN, GRANZYME)

26 8. complement system Soluble Components in the Immune Responses: plasma proteins Trigger The COMPLEMENT SYSTEM as 'complement' the antibacterial activity of antibodies a proteolysis based activation cascade proceeds 2. Cell lysis due to formation of a MEMBRANE ATTACK COMPLEX 1. increased local immune responses by OPSONIZATION (C3b), CHEMOTAXIS (C5a) Membrane Attack Complex of complements: forming pole on a cell membrane binds to pathogens marking them as targets for phagocytes 3. Agglutination: clustering and binding of pathogens

27 OPSONIZATION (C3b) Three ACTIVATION Pathways of the COMPLEMENT SYSTEM -at least 30 plasma proteins (C1-) -synthesised in the liver, -circulate as inactive precursors - cleaved into two fragments: C5a is the most important peptide mediator of inflammation C5b initiates assembly of a membrane attack complex Complement halts angiogenesis gone wild. Walter H. A. Kahr; illustration by A. Y. Chen. Blood : ; a larger stays on the pathogen surface (C3b, C4b, C5b) and a smaller act as a soluble mediator (C3a, C4a, C5a)

28 5. inflammatory reaction...local INFLAMMATORY RESPONSES generated following complement acitvation recruitment of circulating blood leukocytes and various plasma proteins (complement, antibodies) to sites of infection non-specific response for all classes of microbes destroy the microbes (killing zone) and repair damaged tissue include smooth muscle contraction and release of inflammatory mediators such as BRADYKININ and Histamine 1. activation of sensory nerves- pain ( dolor ) 2. increased blood flow- redness ( rubor ), heat ( calor ) 3. increased vascular permeability- local oedema At termination phagocytes leave site of inflammation via lymphatic circulation

29 5. inflammatory reaction 1. Non-specific Recognition of bacterial products by plasma factors (opsonization C3,C5) and/or immune cells (PRRs) The Inflammatory Reaction (PRR) pattern recognition receptor: expressed by host cell (e.g. Toll-like Receptors (TLR), Scavenging receptors for LPS) Molecular Pattern recognized as nonself: characteristic molecules expressed in high amounts by pathogens (bacterial cell wall component e.g.lps, Mannose) 2. Chemokins are produced, immune cells are activated, macrophages attracted to the infected area

30 5. inflammatory reaction 2. Chemokines are released: function is to attract cells from longer distances ( chemotaxis ) CYTOKINES that regulate immune responses (induces chemotaxis and phagocytosis); produced by lymphocytes, macrophages, mast cells, endothelial cells, neurons etc. INTERLEUKINS human cytokines with known amino acid sequence IL-8, Tumor Necrosis Factor α (promotion of inflammation) INTERFERONS: secreted by virus-infected cells Interferon-g- activation of macrophages (by NKs, T helper cells) The Inflammatory Reaction soluble mediators Anaphylatoxins: small complement fragments (C3a, C4a, and C5a); bind to mast cells and basophils and trigger the release of inflammatory mediators (Histamine)

31 5. inflammatory reaction 3. macrophages attracted to the infected area: CHEMOTAXIS and entry into tissue: DIAPEDEZIS The Inflammatory Reaction Capture Rolling Adhering proinflammatory stimuli activate endothelial cells Migration

32 5. inflammatory reaction 4. ingestion of the bacteria (Opsonisation) by endocytosis-phagocytosis 5. cytotoxic granules discharge their content: degranulation into interstitial space (local destruction of host tissue) The Inflammatory Reaction Cytotoxic granules: proteases e.g.antimicrobial defensins NADPH-oxidase and superoxide-dismutase (O 2- to H 2 O 2 ) myeloperoxidase (e.g.hocl)

33 7. Arachidonic Acid derivates. The Inflammatory Reaction ARACHIDONIC ACID is metabolised to produce inflammatory mediators: EICOSANOIDS soluble mediators Membrane Phospholipids Phospholypase (PLA2) Arachidonic Acid nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs Lypoxygenase (LOX) Chemotaxis 5 HETE Leukotrienes airway obstruction Increased vascular permeability CYCLOOXYGENASE (COX1, COX2) Prostaglandins PGE Prostacyclin (PGI2) Thromboxanes Inflammation, pain, oedema Platelet aggregation

34 7. Arachidonic Acid derivates. The Inflammatory Reaction Anti-Inflammatory Medicines inhibit AA-pathway soluble mediators Membrane Phospholipids Arachidonic Acid Phospholypase (PLA2) CYCLOOXYGENASE (COX1, COX2) steroids (anti-inflammatory drugs) nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs- COX-INHIBITORS aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen PGE Prostaglandins Prostacyclin (PGI2) Thromboxanes COX-1: is constituitively expressed in most cells; COX-2 is upregulated during inflammation Selective COX-2 inhibitors with a lower incidence of side-effects Inflammation, pain, oedema Platelet aggregation Aspirin is effective at reducing cardiac event Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (1982)

35 9. bradykinin-kallidin system The The BRADYKININ-KALLIDIN (KININ-KALLIKREIN) System. Inflammatory Reaction soluble mediators endogenous multiprotein cascade leads to enzymatic hydrolysis of KININOGENS triggering of the intrinsic coagulation pathway, blood pressure control, pain trigger vasodilation, increased capillary permeability Inducible Constitutive BRADYKININ: an important mediator of pain and irritation in skin, vasculature and all visceral organs

36 Protection of "surface barriers" (mechanical, chemical and biological barriers: skin, saliva, tears, gastric juice with acids and proteases, natural flora...). 10. "surface barriers" Summary- Component of Innate Immunity Examples: ciliated epithelial cells (e.g. upper respiratory tract) can facilitate removal of microbes LYSOZIME in saliva: digest bacteria cell wall maturation of immune effector cells beneath epithelial layer
