Cellular Events at the Synapse Between

CTL and Target Cells

Transfer of membrane proteins at the synapse. (a–e) A series of still frames from a movie showing CTLs killing a target cell, the membrane of which has been labeled with a fluorescent protein marker, and electron micrographs showing roughly equivalent stages of synapse formation. Granules polarize towards the immunological synapse as the CTL engages its target (a–c); as the CTL disengages, the granules withdraw from the synapse (d), where membrane from the target has accumulated. As the CTL detaches, target membrane is ripped off the dying target (e), and the CTL can engage a new target (color panel of e).

Gene Structure of the Human MHC

Trowsdale., Immunity. 15:363, 2001

The human MHC covers ~4 Mbp of DNA on chromosome 6p21.3 and contains over 220 identified loci. It has been divided into three regions: class II (centromeric), class III, and class I (telomeric) with extended class I and class II regions on either side. This is one of the most gene-dense regions of the human genome. It encodes the most polymorphic human proteins known to date. Of the expressed loci in the MHC, roughly 40% are associated with the immune system. They include the classical class I, HLA-A, -B, and -C, nonclassical HLA-E, -F, and -G, as well as ''postmodern'' MICA and MICB genes (MHC class I chain-related genes). The products of classical polymorphic class I genes, HLA-A, B, and C, interact with T cell receptor (TCR) molecules as well as with the products of the killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes expressed on natural killer cells and some T cells.

DCs that are infected with intracellular bacteria present foreign bacterial lipid antigens on the cell surfacbound to CD1 molecules. CD1-restricted T cells that are specific for the foreign microbial lipids are stimulatedto carry out effector functions, including the secretion of cytolytic granules containing perforin and granulysin, which lyse the infected cells and have direct antimicrobial effects, respectively, and the production ofIFN- and TNF-, which activate the microbicidal functions of macrophages.

1. For cytotoxic CD8 T-cells, ligation of the TCR by MHC I/peptide + co-stimulation results in release of granzymes and perforin and/or FasL, leading to apoptosisof the target cells.

2. Viruses evade host defense, in part, by down-regulating MHC Class I. Uninfected dendritic cells circumvent this by “cross-priming”: phagocytosis of virus-infected cell and presentation of “exogenous” viral antigens on MHC Class I.

3. The innate immune system has a rapid onset and recognizes molecular patterns in a non-clonal fashion.

4. NK cells lack TCRs, but instead express both activating and inhibitory (e.g., KIRs) receptors at their surfaces. The relative expression and ligation of these receptors determines the outcome (i.e., killing or not) of the NK effector response.

5. Innate immune B-cells (e.g., B-1 cells and marginal zone B cells) recognizecarbohydrate antigens, secrete IgM, and are not long-lived.

6. Innate immune T-cells ( T-cells, and NK T cells) recognize non-peptide antigens innon-classical MHC-like molecules. They mediate cytotoxicity & rapid cytokine secretion.
