8. Recognition of TD Ag Directly recognize Ag (B cell epitope) No MHC involvement surfaced displayed B cell-epitopes

9. Ab (BCR) binds the B-cell epitope directly, TCR binds with a self-MHC-T-cell-epitope complex

13. the 2-signal rule signal 1：BCR －B cell epitope signal 2：CD40－CD40 L Co-sti mol B Th CD40L survive B7 survive

14. B cell activation requires 2 signals Signal 3: IL-4

15. Signal 1 From antigen Recognition of Receptor-mediated Ag endocytosis T cell epitope-MHC II presentation B cell epitope • BCR serves 2 roles: • Ag-induced clustering of BCRs delivers signals that initiate the activation process. • BCR internalize the Ag into endosome, process and present on surface for T recognition

16. Signal 1 From antigen Signal 2 From Th Signal 3 From Th

17. Antigen crosslinks mIg(BCR), generating signal 1, which leads to increased expression of class II MHC and costimulatory B7. Antigen–BCR complexes are internalized by receptor-mediated endocytosis and degraded to peptides, which are bound by class II MHC and presented as peptide–MHC complexes. Th cell recognizes Ag–class II MHC and B7-CD28 co-stimulation on B-cell membrane which activates TH cell. Th cell begins to express CD40L. Interaction of CD40 and CD40L provides signal 2. Th cell release large quantities of cytokines(IL-4) signal 3 to support the progression of the B cell replication and differentiation.

18. Signal 3 Th-secreting cytokines Regulate B cell differentiation

19. B cells and humoral immune response • 1. Recognition of the specific Ag • Activation, proliferation, differentiation • 1) 2-signal activation • 2) signal transduction • Germinal center: later event • General feature of Ab response

20. Tyrosine kinase phosphorylation cascade immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) PTK Src family

22. Bruton’s disease a genetically determined immunodeficiency disease inability to synthesize all classes of antibody. discovered in 1952 by O. C. Bruton. Case: a young boy who had mumps 3 times and experienced 19 different episodes of serious bacterial infections during 4 years. Do not raise Abs to any vaccines.

23. 1937，Tiselius use Electrophoresis to analyze the serum proteins Which comprised of 5 components： albumin、a1、a2、b、g globulin anode Antibody，IgG albumin a globulin b globulin g globulin Serum of un-immunized person cathode Electrophoresis

24. Pathogenesis:failures in B-cell development. inhibition pro–B to pre–B-cell transition In 1990s, the gene was cloned which encodes Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (Btk). Btk play important roles in B-cell signaling vital to the function of mature B cells Absence of Btk results in the failure of B activation and Ab generation

25. B cells and humoral immune response • 1. Recognition of the specific Ag • Activation, proliferation, differentiation • 1) 2-signal activation • 2) signal transduction • 3) proliferation • Germinal center: later event • General feature of Ab response

26. Early and late event in Ab response to TD antigen Early events： follicle（B）-paracortex（T）border, B activation and T-B activation Small amounts of Ab production Late events： At the germinal center Presence of Ag and Th Affinity maturation Ig class switch (IgM IgG) Memory B

31. Follicular DC (FDC) No MHC II Bind with Ag-Ab （IC ）by FcR，maintain Ag for long Provide persistent Ag signal for B cells

32. 1、somatic hypermutation In presence of Ag , by Th’s co-stimulation Point Mutation of CDR in the Ig V region Affinity-enhanced BCR(B cell) is selected affinity maturation

34. 2、affinity maturation Result of somatic hypermutation of B cell B cells with high affinity would survive Affinity enhancement

35. 3、Ig class (isotype) switch In response to CD40-CD40L signal and IL-4 from Th cell, the activated B cells undergo the process of heavy chain isotype (class) switching leading to production of Abs with different class of heavy chain. • cytokine determined • occur in single B cell • during RNA transcription • ligation of various C gene • the Vregion of Ig remains, the C region changed

36. With Th’ help Without Th

37. Th cell-secreting cytokines determines the Ig class switch

38. No Th CD40L signal、IL-4 from Th The V gene would recombine with a downstream C region gene and the other DNA deleted
