医学免疫学名解英文
免疫
Immune response: the response made by the host to defend itself against the introduction of foreign substances.
Antigen: An antigen is any agent capable of binding specifically to components of immune system, such as BCR and soluble antibodies
Immunogen - A substance that induces a specific immune response.
(All immunogens are antigens, but not all antigens are immunogens)
Antigenicity: The ability of a compound to bind with antibodies or cells of the immune system. This binding is highly specific.
Immunogenicity
Immunogenicity is the ability of a particular substance, such as an antigen or epitope, to provoke a specific immune response in the body of a human or animal.
Hapten半抗原:A hapten is a small molecule which can elicit an immune response only when attached to a large carrier such as a protein; the carrier may be one which also does not elicit an immune response by itself.
Epitope
Epitope is the portion of the antigen that binds specifically with the binding site of an antibody or a receptor on a lymphocyte.
TI-Ag
Thymus -independent antigens are antigens which can directly stimulate the B cells to produce antibody without the requirement for T cell help in general.
TD-Ag
Thymus -dependent antigens are those that do not directly stimulate the production of antibody without the help of T cells
Super antigen
An antigen which polyclonally activates some subtypes of the T cells (up to 20%).
Adjuvants: A substance that when mixed with an immunogen, enhances the immune response against the immunogen.
Immunoglobulin
The Immunoglobulins are globulin which function as antibodies or similar to antibodies in chemical structure.
Complementarity determining region (CDR)互补决定区:A complementarity determining
region (CDR) is a short amino acid sequence found in the variable domains of antigen receptor (e.g. immunoglobulin and T cell receptor) proteins that complements an antigen and therefore provides the receptor with its specificity for that particular antigen.
Complement:A group of serum proteins involved in the control of inflammation, the activation of phagocytes and the lytic attack on cell membranes. It belongs to the innate immune system, and can be recruited and brought into action by the adaptive immune system.
Common receptor subunit
There is same receptor subunit for cytokine signaling among the different cytokine receptors. e.g. common γ chain
Cytokine (CK) : Small soluble proteins that mediate immune and inflammatory reactions and are responsible for communications between leukocytes and other cells.
Soluble cytokine receptor
Soluble cytokine receptor is the extracellular part of the receptor, which can competitively bind to cytokine
Cytokine storm: Under certain circumstances (e.g. septic shock), large amounts of CKs (such as TNF) are produced, they may be active distant from their site of secretion.
Leukocyte differentiation antigen白细胞分化抗原:The cell surface markers which
express or disappear on the different cells in the different stages of differentitation and activation.
Cluster of differentiation (CD): Cell surface molecules of leucocytes that are
distinguishable with monoclonal antibodies as an immunologic marker.
Cell adhesion molecules, CAM: A group of proteins involved in adhesion of cell to cell or cell to extracellular matrix (ECM), such as ICAM-1, ICAM-2, ICAM-3, VCAM-1 and PECAM etc.
Integrin
Integrins are transmembrane receptors that mediate the attachment between a cell and the tissues that surround it, such as other cells or the extracellular matrix (ECM)
Selectins
Selectins (CD62) are a family of cell adhesion molecules.
MHC主要组织相容性复合物:The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a large
genomic region or gene family found in most vertebrates. It is the most gene-dense region of the mammalian genome and plays an important role in the immune system, autoimmunity, and reproductive success.
Polymorphism
The phenomenon of having multiple alleles at given genetic locus in the population
Somatic hypermutation体细胞高度突变:Somatic hypermutation (or SHM) is a mechanism
inside cells that is part of the way the immune system adapts to the new foreign elements which confront it (for example, microbes).
ITAM
An immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) is a conserved sequence of
four amino acids that is repeated twice in the cytoplasmic tails of certain cell surface proteins of the immune system.
Negative selection负选择:The death of autoimmune lymphocytes shortly after they
develop. Also known as clonal deletion.
Positive selection: Double positive cells that bind, with moderate affinity, to MHC-Ag on thymic stroma cells survive. DP cell acquire MHC restriction though positive selection.
Foxp3
A member of the FOX protein family, FOXP3 appears to function as a master transcription factor in the development and function of regulatory T cells.
APC:A variety of cell types specialized in the presentation of peptide-MHC to lymphocytes, causing either tolerance or immunity.
Cross-presentation
+Class I MHC molecules present exogenous Ags to CD8 T cells.
Immunological synapse
When the TCR complex recognizes MHC-associated peptides on an APC, several T cell surface proteins and intracellular signaling molecules are rapidly mobilized to the site of T cell-APC contact. This region of physical contact between the T cell and the APC has been called the immunological synapse
Anergy无反应性:Anergy is a term in immunobiology that describes a lack of reaction by the body's defense mechanisms to foreign substances, and consists of a direct induction of peripheral lymphocyte tolerance.
Regulatory T cell调节性T细胞:Regulatory T cells (sometimes known as suppressor T
cells) are a specialized subpopulation of T cells that act to suppress activation of the immune system and thereby maintain immune system homeostasis and tolerance to self-antigens.
AICD激活诱导的细胞死亡:activation-induced cell death (AICD) recognition and deletion of T lymphocytes that have been induced to proliferate by receptor-mediated activation, preventing their overgrowth.
Class switching
Class switching is a biological mechanism that changes a B cell's production
of antibody from one class to another
Central tolerance
is the mechanism by which newly developing T cells and B cells are rendered non-reactive to self during their development in thymus and bone marrow.
Secondary Antibody: An antibody that binds to primary antibodies or antibody fragments. They are typically labeled with probes that make them useful for detection, purification or cell sorting applications.
Affinity(亲和力)
Strength of the reaction between a single antigenic determinant and a single Ab combining site
Avidity(亲合力)
The overall strength of binding between an Ag with many determinants and multivalent Abs
ELISA (Enzyme linked immuno-sorbent assay) An immunological test, using an enzyme
as a label to determine presence of target protein.
ELISPOT (Enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent spot) A common method for monitoring
immune responses in humans and animals. At appropriate conditions the ELISPOT assay allows visualization of the secretary product of individual activated or responding cells.
Immuno-labeling techniques
Specific Abs (or Ags ) labelled with fluorescein, enzymes or radioisotopes are used as probes for the detection of Ags (or Abs).
Artificial active immunization: Administration of an antigen for active production of
immunity. Active immunization results in the production of antibodies directed against the infecting agent or its toxic products; it may also initiate cellular immunity.
Artificial passive immunization:Immunization may be accomplished passively by
administering either performed immunoreactive serum (Abs, CKs) or cells.
Vaccine: Administration of an antigen for active production of immunity is called artificial active immunization. The agent used for artificial active immunization is called vaccine.
Planned immunization: A rational program of childhood immunization against infectious disease, when many of the most damaging and preventable infections normally appear.
Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy is the approach to balance or intervene the immunologic function in order to
fight against the disease by the principle of immunology.
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are a primitive part of the immune system. They are proteins expressed by cells of the innate immune system to identify pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), which are associated with microbial pathogens or cellular stress, as well as damage-associated molecular patterns
(DAMPs), which are associated with cell components released during cell damage.
