5. Part Ⅰ Introduction-- concepts  Endogenous Ags: antigens synthesized within cells, including self and unself protein----class Ⅰ MHC molecules.  Exogenous Ags: antigens comes outside the cells, including self and unself protein----class Ⅱ MHC molecules.  Antigen processing: the conversion of native proteins to peptides which can combine with MHC molecules.  Antigen presentation: the course of formation and display of peptide-MHC complexes on the surface of APCs and the course of peptide-MHC complexes recognition by T cells.  Ag capturing ----Endocytosis (internalization) Phagocytosis, Pinocytosis, Receptor-mediated endocytosis

6. Production of endogenous Ags and exogenous Ags

9. Antigen-Presenting Cells (APC) APC (Accessory cells) : A group of cells play important roles in the immune response which can uptake, process antigens and present peptide-MHC complexes to T cells. Professional APC: express class Ⅱ MHC molecules Dendritic cell Macrophage B lymphocyte Facultative APC: endothelial cells, epithelial cells, fibroblast, etc

10. APC Express class Ⅰ, Ⅱ MHC molecules and co-stimulatory molecules Uptake, process endogenous/exogenous antigens and present peptide-MHC to T cells Including dendritic cells, macrophages and B cells

11. Part Ⅱ Characteristics of APCs  Dendritic cell (DC)  Macrophage  B lymphocyte

12. 1. Dendritic cell (DC) History: DCs were first found by Steinman in 1973 ， named for their special spinelike projections. DCs were cultured successfully in vitro in 1993 by Inaba. Characteristic: The most efficient APC, can present antigens to naive T cells to elicit primary immune response.

13. Fig2-4 Mature DC suspended in media by colony （ ×400 ）

14. Fig2-5 scattered mature DC （ ×400 ）

15. Scanning electron micrograph

16. (1)Identification of DC: Typical morphology — spinelike projection MLR — stimulate na ï ve T cells activation Surface markers : CD1a, CD11c, CD83(human) high expression of class Ⅱ MHC co-stimulatory molecules-- CD80,CD86 others — CKs, CAMs, R (2) Source of DC: pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells myeloid DC myeloid progenitor lymphoid DC lymphoid progenitor 1. Dendritic cell (DC) GM-CSF, IL-4

17. (3) Classification of DC :  DC in lymphoid tissue: Interdigitating DC (IDC), Folicular DC (FDC)  DC in non lymphoid tissue: Langerhans cell (LC)  DC in body fluid: Veiled cell, Blood DC 1. Dendritic cell (DC)

18. Interdigitating DC( IDC ） Express high level of class Ⅰ, Ⅱ MHC molecules and B7 ， lack of FcR and CR, can stimulate T cells.

19. FDC B cell Folicular DC （ FDC ） Lie in follicle of LN, no expression of class Ⅱ MHC, high level of FcR and C3bR.

20. Langerhan ’ s cells(LC) — Birbeck particle Lie in the epithelia of the skin, gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts, express FcR and C3bR. After uptaking antigens, migrating to draining LN and becoming IDC.

21. (4) Development and Maturation of DC Pre-DC phase Immature DC （ iDC ） phase Migration phase Mature DC （ mDC ） phase 1. Dendritic cell (DC)

22. Pre-DC Blood Non-lymphoid tissue Differentiation ImmatureDC Distribute Widely distributed in the body Possess ability of Ag capture and process Cytokines and Ag DC mature and move into lymphoid tissue Ability of Ag capture and processing decreases while its ability of Ag presenting increases

23. Difference between iDC and mDC Ability of uptaking and processing antigens decreases. Ability of antigen presentation increases. Express high level of MHC, co- stimulatory molecules(CD80,CD86), CAMs(ICAM-1). Ability to stimulate na ï ve T cell activation increases.

24. (5) Antigens capturing: Phagocytosis—cell, bacteria Pinocytosis—soluble antigen Receptor-mediated endocytosis FcγR Ⅱ, C3bR, mannose receptor 1. Dendritic cell (DC)

25. (6) Function of DC : Capture, process, present antigens — APC Stimulate T or B lymphocytes — mature DC Induce immune tolerance — immature DC 1. Dendritic cell (DC)

26. 2. Macrophage （ MФ ） Stem from monocytes in blood Have strong phagocytosis (big phagocyte) Can not stimulate na ï ve T cells Capture antigens by phagocytosis, pinocytosis, receptor-mediated endocytosis

30. Function : Phagocytosis Presentation of antigens Unactivated macrophage Activated macrophage: Class Ⅱ MHC molecules and co-stimulatory molecules 2. Macrophage （ MФ ）

31. 3. B cells Functions Mediate humoral immune response Immunological regulation Present antigens to T cell Soluble Ag--pinocytosis Specific receptor-mediated endocytosis
