00:14 mhm. Hey folks, let's go and get started. So um to

00:40 down here um Today we'll finish up 24 and then um 25 on Monday

00:50 be basically like a flipped class, bunch of questions and a number of

00:55 bigger questions. We'll just center the around around the questions. Um and

01:00 25 is uh so after having gone today, we will have completed basic

01:07 at all the different mechanisms and ways your body can fight infectious disease.

01:12 then in 25 you're basically just kind looking at the perspective of the

01:17 all the ways it can exploit. around and around your chemical barriers,

01:24 barriers um and um and others and adaptive immune system. And uh because

01:34 there's many pathogens that are successful at , that's why they can cause

01:38 And so they've evolved ways to Get these barriers. So we'll look at

01:44 Monday. Okay. And then 26 really just kind of One of those

01:49 of putting it all together 2°, looking different infectious diseases and we'll bring up

01:55 factors and that relate to those diseases defenses you have that relate to those

02:02 and so it'll kind of mixed Okay. Um so uh recall there's

02:09 couple of things, Do we have work? It's time to do the

02:14 . Um Weekly quiz opens tomorrow at . Um It was covered what we've

02:21 go through today. So basically the half of 23 and then the rest

02:25 24 include, we'll have a little of uh your book. Does't go

02:30 a lot about vaccines, and I'm kind of giving just like an overview

02:36 it. Just kind of different types are out there. Um And so

02:41 tables that are in there, you need necessarily to memorize those, but

02:44 more like if you see the term attenuated vaccine, you know what that

02:49 , or you see a subunit you know what that is. So

02:52 kind of more more kind of the of different types of vaccines. And

02:56 look at the covid vaccines as Okay, so um so uh is

03:04 any questions about anything you can That's something administrative stuff I had.

03:09 uh remember I think the I didn't it on here, but the the

03:19 , for example, for I think supposed to be up on the

03:23 so keep an eye out for Um Anyway, so let's look at

03:30 first question. So let's start with questions that's going to relate to something

03:33 talked about last time. Probably a things we didn't talk about yet,

03:38 we'll get into today. Um So of the following is false concerning the

03:44 immune response. So, remember last we looked at, here's the overview

03:50 the adaptive immune system. Here's what part does. Here's what the other

03:54 does. We'll get into a little specifics today. Okay. Okay.

04:55 let's sing. So c. Is correct choice? So that's uh look

05:13 these others. So be salty. function that's how they differentiate it.

05:18 human immunity is the antibody production Uh Sailor immunity is different types of

05:25 cells. Certain types interact with your cells that may be infected but t

05:30 also are important for activating B cells well. So we'll see how that

05:35 . Um B cells of course can into plasma cells. And plasma cells

05:40 the ones that form antibodies that can form memory cells. There's two cell

05:44 that can be formed by activating B um T cells as mentioned. They

05:52 the part of your adaptive immune system can deal with infected cells. And

05:57 there's specific t cells that do that cells can produce antibody but B cells

06:03 don't really kill anything. Okay. they can through antibodies in their surface

06:10 . I'm sorry, anybody's in their . Combined energy and of course multiple

06:15 . So but single clonal populations, way that B cells this uh concept

06:20 clonal selection. Okay so a population B cells will respond to an energon

06:29 uh then there's be self antibodies specific that antigen. Okay so um obviously

06:36 key word here is clonal population there going to produce antibodies of the same

06:42 that we're buying into the same Okay that's how you're B cells

06:48 Okay so we'll go into some of specifics here. So last time uh

06:53 so we looked at the overview of of the adaptive immune system. Uh

06:57 get into more of how these things . I'm giving you I guess you

07:03 the watered down version because um this a very complicated process and though interesting

07:11 very complicated. And so uh if do find it of interest you might

07:17 taking, we offer an immunology course every other semester I believe. So

07:23 might video get all the gritty details the process but um nevertheless so I'm

07:31 you more like a Basic 101 version . So just know that even in

07:37 of the t cells you see I'm only really mentioning three types.

07:42 more than that. Um And we mentioned that B cells of course we

07:48 for memory cells but there's also T that can do this. There's also

07:52 memory cells as well. So um again I was trying not to get

07:57 bogged down into this and just kind give you the basics here. Um

08:02 so one of the things I remember that, and not mention this again

08:06 that your t cell types. They their functions based on the type of

08:14 uh self engines that they recognize that , that kind of what is what

08:19 them. And then another differentiation is types that work with macrophages and dendritic

08:26 and those that work with B Okay. Um so let's uh see

08:33 else we talked about. We talked an engine and body binding and I

08:36 remember the epic Toby is a smaller within the engine is actually at the

08:42 where the actual physical binding occurs. . And of course engines can be

08:47 different things. Right. I guess could loosely defined as an engine is

08:52 anything that can stimulate the immune system can be a number of different

08:56 Okay. And so with anybody structure so again that Y shaped but of

09:03 in multiple subunits um it's it's a obviously it's uh you can have of

09:09 multiple if you have five different isotopes by what is the constant region uh

09:19 amino acid sequence there. So all the same maestra type will have the

09:24 sequences here. They will differ they differ in their image and binding

09:29 Okay. But even that you're identifying by the fact that it they all

09:34 this same sequence in this constant Right? Which will differ from

09:40 Or D. Which will differ in regions. Okay. Um But again

09:45 within a media type, right. can have the same or different engine

09:51 sites. All right. Um And lastly the effective and anybody buying

09:57 Okay. Very defects dealing also with parasites as we see down here.

10:07 so um so let's look at uh this is a little bit about the

10:13 antibodies themselves. Okay so and the you see here are the proportions that

10:21 exist in in the circulating blood. so 15% for Ij IJ mainly resides

10:27 the mucus secretions. So I remember your um the mucus membrane is a

10:34 barrier and it produces a chemical barrier well. And in because secretions will

10:39 a number of different chemicals among them be I. G. A.

10:44 and so a lot of your respiratory both bacterial and viral uh rely on

10:52 to uh the agricultural surface of your uh system which I'm um and and

11:01 idea and embodies to those pathogens can them from binding they produce the neutralizing

11:07 antibodies that will quote the pathogen and that doesn't allow them to stick to

11:13 cells. Okay now unique with the is that they can form These dime

11:19 so um which basically doubles the number binding sites. So we're from 2-4

11:24 that case. Okay um the I . G. Is I call this

11:34 of the workhorse antibody. It has functions from optimization to uh acting is

11:45 antibodies as well as the activity compliment other functions. Okay it is the

11:51 that is formed in the highest amounts as you might say the most

11:59 Okay um one of the things that don't go into it but if you

12:06 go into it? Your book talks little bit about it is with your

12:10 immune system. There's actually a learning so to speak for your antibody producing

12:18 that the antibodies initially um will bind antigen but not as tightly. But

12:26 get better at it with prolonged exposure an urgent and so the next generation

12:31 antibodies synthesized following the initial exposure to better at binding. And so they

12:38 they become better in there in terms their engine antibody activity. Okay.

12:44 it's those high Gs that are formed first exposure to the vaccine. Those

12:51 in high amounts and are very bind well initially it's I. GMOs that

12:56 pretty much the Gm antibodies that don't as well. But they kind of

13:04 by being able to form those these five headed monsters. It's a it's

13:08 pen timer. Okay getting ahead of . I'll show you that that's what

13:11 talking about. Let me just go . I'll come back to that.

13:14 so here's I. G. So it can form A. Um

13:18 A. And M. Can also in the monomer, the singular Y

13:22 . But they can also they also these and for I. G.

13:25 . S. This is an effective to kind of compensate maybe for not

13:29 very good at binding but they combined units so to speak. The unit

13:35 a pattern let's say okay so Who reducing the number of infectious units that's

13:40 illumination the clumping function. Right. so by having now 10 binding sites

13:46 can reduce the number of units infectious the body has to deal with.

13:50 so that's that's a good function. these are what are produced early on

13:54 first exposure to engine are these types then switch over to A.

13:59 G. Which are better binding and higher quantities. Okay so let's go

14:06 to here. And so these are took only 10%. Don't worry so

14:11 about the values uh the I. . G. S. Are in

14:15 highest amount in the circulating blood. Sit back here step so there's a

14:24 of antibody types and let me just you probably notice anyway. But the

14:29 I. G. B. G. In front of these

14:31 So it's um you know just a name for antibody right means the same

14:35 . Um .2%. So there's a of types i. g.

14:41 and i. g. e. do their work while sitting on top

14:46 the cell. Okay. And D. And B. Cells which

14:50 antibodies we'll have actually either I. . D. On them.

14:55 Or the I. G. Modern reforms. Okay secondhand one.

15:02 can be D. Or mm. and that's how B cells can interact

15:10 . And even though they can also engulf an urgent and present antigen.

15:15 ? So they'll be able to show but that they can show it right

15:21 because they have MHC Type two molecules they can show hands again um Using

15:29 . Okay. And they do. another type of mm hmm. Of

15:34 two types of ways of activating B and this is one of them to

15:38 antigen so that it can it can a T. Cell help it out

15:42 activate it. That's correct. Ah anyway so I. G.

15:47 Uh is one that sits on top uh antigen and are found on B

15:54 . Okay so because they're so they're low in the blood because or your

15:58 cells your T. Cells your Dendritic cells as their primary residence is

16:05 fluid. Not not being in your so much. Okay. And so

16:10 that's where you'll find I. D. S. With B cells

16:12 are in lymphatic. Okay. Or tissue. Um They just talked about

16:18 . G. M. S. I. G. E. Okay

16:21 I. G. E. Another found on not on the stones but

16:25 found on mass cells battlefields. We these types in the inflammatory response.

16:33 these are about releasing cytokines which have effects. Um And so I.

16:39 . S. Will bind antigens and cause these effects um also those of

16:46 that suffer allergies. Um this will lead to that. Especially if you're

16:52 you'll produce more than than what other do. And then that leads to

16:57 usual symptoms. Watery eyes uh itchiness. Maybe these kind of symptoms

17:04 experience from allergy because the and you it doesn't have to be coming from

17:08 microbe. That can be a what's the yellow stuff that's out and

17:13 Now the oak pollen I think it . That's that's an engine for

17:17 Okay so and some of us just more vigorously than others so to

17:23 But uh anyway um now so let's any questions about that anybody types.

17:34 so uh so how did you make things? So this number can be

17:38 at B. Cell function here. humorless response. So remember that anybody's

17:43 go inside of a cell and deal an infected cell. They can only

17:46 on pageants that are outside. So extra settings are pathogens. Okay so

17:52 two processes. There's what's called, you're gonna see here is um um

17:58 . Cell dependent so T dependent activation a. B. Cell. Okay

18:05 also t independent activation. Okay so what has to happen is the

18:11 Cell has to get involved and activate B. Cell. Okay. The

18:16 of engines that generally, well not . Well I hesitate to say all

18:24 time but for the most part protein are what goes through this process.

18:30 most engines that are out there are in nature. Okay. And so

18:35 a reason for that. I'll explain little bit. So anyway so an

18:41 again will bind to antibodies on the cell. Typically D. D.

18:47 . G. D. Or G. M. And um those

18:51 will be in the process of It doesn't mean it's activated but that's

18:55 like step one. Okay. MR and then as well being an engine

19:02 cell remember B cells macrophages, dendritic and present. They will do that

19:08 and show it to a T Okay. And so t cell binding

19:14 basically the next step. Okay. uh it then that causes it to

19:20 cytokines, cytokines among those are chemicals will activate the B cells to differentiate

19:27 plasma cells which directly form antibodies And cells. Okay so memory cells don't

19:35 antibodies. Okay. But they do respond to an urgent uh and they'll

19:41 primed and ready to they buy an very quickly. They differentiate into plasma

19:48 and more memory cells. Okay. now the the process of this clonal

19:58 . Okay so um so we have have in terms of numbers um numbers

20:10 but you obviously have many B cell of cells in your body and B

20:17 are unique. So most of the almost all the cells in your body

20:22 course are genetically identical or in the chromosomes the same D. N.

20:27 . Um the B cells as But the B cells have visibility.

20:32 have a segment in their chromosome which part of the antibody production process.

20:39 they can produce remember the the energy sites. Right? That's the part

20:46 variable in an antibody. And so B cell can produce can can have

20:51 recombination events occur in this region that these and combining sites. And so

20:58 been thought that there's like potentially 10 the 13 different kamen unique engines can

21:03 recognized. 10 to 13. That's lot. Okay so you can form

21:09 up these cells that formed antibodies realistically almost anything that you might encounter for

21:15 reason. So you're gonna have these of antibodies and so forth. For

21:21 it simple. The it's just showing four different subsets of B cells that

21:27 might have. Okay but only one them is going to respond to the

21:32 . Okay that's that this this process clonal selection. Okay so the term

21:39 uh antigen. Okay so for four . Four. So here's red dots

21:45 the engine and four C. Is one that actually binds them and then

21:51 . Okay so for four C. whatever it is is it's cognitive and

21:58 for 32 or one it would be different. Okay and so the binding

22:04 initiates this proliferation of of clones that of this particular type. So B

22:12 will then proliferate and the antibodies on of these cells will only bind to

22:19 specific episode. Right? That's shown . Okay. And so um again

22:26 become platinum sells some become memory Okay. And this is the this

22:31 still India under the umbrella of of dependent activation of the B cell.

22:41 . So um what about this t activation? Okay. These this process

22:49 kind of just reserved for certain molecule can induce this. Certain engine types

22:55 do this not proteins but rather larger antigens. So called the sacral rides

23:03 acids. Um Golightly lipids, large lipids. These are types that can

23:09 activated B cell without the help of T. Cell. Hence t independent

23:15 . Okay, so the reason for is this And what I'm about to

23:19 that you don't just for information we're going to help you understand this.

23:23 not gonna test you on it. . In really basic terms what has

23:28 happen is what they call, Let just show this picture and there's a

23:32 of this I don't like but I'm go with anyway. So uh what

23:37 to happen is the formation of a cell receptor. Okay. B.

23:44 . R. For short. A. B. C.

23:48 Is basically this the antibody bound to cell but then there's a little projection

23:55 goes in that enables it to to in the membrane. Alright, so

24:02 actually a difference between this and that different only in the fact that these

24:09 antibodies that that are floating around and their thing don't have or lacking

24:15 I mean they don't have it that pin in portion that allows it to

24:19 in the membrane. Okay, this up here is all the same.

24:24 , but this is lacking in this . Okay, so um then there's

24:31 hey a couple of anybody black molecules here. Okay. And what has

24:41 happen is you have to activate the cell and step one is by

24:47 Okay so buying the Andersen. Alright then you need to get that signal

24:58 it's the nucleus. Okay. And get that signal of that binding signal

25:05 to the to the nuclear So then can create the chemical initiate collection of

25:09 set of kinds that enable the process be going Okay so it's this kind

25:15 sort of doesn't relate to do What you have to do is to

25:19 together. You have to cluster together b cell receptors come together.

25:27 so a a something like this. these are clustering together. Right.

25:34 that's what is part of the activation . Okay, so protein engines.

25:41 . Because of their to be able cluster together multiple antibodies in the

25:46 Okay, you they have to be contact with a repeating epic tobe right

25:54 other words, a molecule that has same epic tope right binding site.

26:02 , repeating epitope. Okay, so is the and again, right here

26:07 the episode. So these have to repeating, right? Because the antibody

26:13 antibody is going to buy into one right? On a single B

26:16 So you need to have So if the same and it's big,

26:22 Like let me go back real quick this illustration to here. Right.

26:25 see how big the engine is. . You can contact always be some

26:30 and cluster them together. Right. clustering is what activates this thing over

26:38 that sends a signal to the Okay. And then that sets the

26:42 the whole chain of events. Um and so a big molecule like

26:46 police accurate you know, think of starch. Right? Or or like

26:52 just repeating glucose units. Right. are repeating epic taub's right. A

26:57 play play peptide is not right because an individual amino acids right. Making

27:03 with things. There's a lot of there. Okay, So that's why

27:08 you know, you can't really do very well. Okay. And that's

27:12 they need the involvement of a T to help the activation. Okay,

27:17 a large like a nuclear gas suit place Saccharine. Right. There's not

27:24 that same different variability as there is the protein. Right. And so

27:29 have that repetition. Okay. And we've got plenty of saccharine or or

27:34 acid and and and you have a as well as those things. And

27:38 that's what can cause a much easier clustering these these B cell receptors together

27:45 then get the signal to the nucleus them begin the activation. Right?

27:50 it does not need a T. or so. Okay. And so

27:55 that's what's going on. Okay. so this is a little misty I

27:59 to correct that the cell receptor this a B cell receptor. That's a

28:04 cell receptor. You're trying to cluster together to get the activation right,

28:09 for a big place Ackroyd plague acid do that because they're not really they're

28:14 repeating units. Right. Protein. so much. Okay. But

28:20 the most engines encountered our protein in . And so it's gonna be the

28:24 cell activity dependent process that's going to happening in the majority of the

28:29 But you do have this occur certainly occasion. But what the sacrifice is

28:37 . Okay. Um this this t independent activation suffers from the fact that

28:45 you will form um plasma cells okay activate it and form plasma B

28:54 Okay. Which of course are the producing cells. All right. But

28:58 don't produce memory cells. Okay. what you do by the t the

29:04 cell dependent one. Does you get full effect memory cells plasma cells.

29:10 . Um But I can't explain the why but but it is that the

29:16 it may I'm sure it has something do with the tight binding that proteins

29:19 have with their antigens with Yeah Um And so the the as always

29:32 tend to be the best engines in of better binding uh followed by

29:37 play cigarettes and then take acid. the left knee has something to do

29:41 that. But regardless the T dependent t independent process. The bottom one

29:49 one where you only police past myself memory cells. Okay. Um Many

29:56 about that. Yeah. So what differentiates without it? It again it's

30:08 it's about clustering those B. Cell together. Check so a big engine

30:15 that. You see how this is together. Yes because they have this

30:21 a repeating big repeating molecule. So engine binding sites are gonna recognize that

30:27 epitaphs because the episodes are repeating throughout the whole molecule so it will bind

30:36 and the size of the molecule the . So it's it's clustering together all

30:43 B. Cell receptors to create the . Okay and doesn't need a T

30:48 protein engines. I don't really do very well. And so it involves

30:52 why you have to involve a Cell. Because the protein engines don't

30:57 so much on the clustering they rely the activation by a. T.

31:02 . Yeah so it gets cut out middleman. Okay that's when I look

31:08 it. But again most of the that occurs of a B. Cell

31:11 your body is through T. Cell process because most proteins are the most

31:17 protein in nature. Technical. Especially on on pathogens. So how

31:25 we be able to identify what is independent? Um Oh the because the

31:34 T um independent process is like a place aka rides and nucleic acids too

31:43 proteins proteins correct? Pretty much. . Yeah like I said there's there's

31:51 exceptions to that but that's pretty much role. Yeah. Right. Any

31:57 questions? Okay. Um Like I you might find the immunology fascinating course

32:05 you might be pulling your hair out . I don't know. Um Okay

32:11 let's look at this question. Let's this into the next part here.

32:17 Kind of the stuffing I think you're with I'm sure um Having well I

32:26 assume that you've gotten vaccinated but I ask if you got vaccinated but that's

32:31 of what the process is here. looking at. Just making a quick

32:39 . It's not maximizing. Sure. huh. Uh huh. No I

32:45 want to get fired. Okay. yet. Alright, secondary antibody response

33:11 antigen it is. Let's see mm . Yeah of course it's going to

33:27 memory cells. So um the so the first part here so this can

33:35 um first vaccination it can be um exposure. Just an infection. First

33:44 to a pathogen that causes an infection you. And the primary response is

33:49 to form uh plasma cells. So social activating from plasma cells and memory

33:59 . Okay so generally you can see timeframe it's gonna be a little bit

34:03 here versus here for the effect. the second of course secondary secondary responsible

34:11 much quicker because you have memory cells and ready respond to an urgent and

34:16 you can form plasma cells and produce quicker than than first exposure. So

34:23 so just elaborating on that a bit the production of I. G.

34:32 . And I G. Has mentioned initially and again there's this learning curve

34:38 producing stronger antibodies let's say. Um just think it just requires just prolonged

34:46 . The more the more exposure you to the engine I guess the better

34:49 bodies get. Okay. And so B cells will for my Gm initially

34:56 those are the ones that formed those er 55 of those together. Okay

35:02 the illumination function is big there and their fault then those B cells it's

35:08 what's called ice A type switching. they'll go from switch from making M's

35:16 Bodies two GS. But what's kept same is the energy and binding sites

35:22 those have probably gotten better in terms being able to bind to And

35:28 um and so you produce more of as well. So uh m followed

35:33 G at a higher level. And then um the uh second exposure

35:42 you just soften the question of course gonna be much bigger because you have

35:46 bunch of memory B cells ready to following exposure check. So obviously when

35:53 look at um we'll talk a little about vaccines in the bed. Uh

35:57 of course it's all based on on . Okay. And we'll see some

36:03 in terms of vaccines. Um So , so t cells so here we'll

36:11 a little about different T cell types their functions and it really relates to

36:16 type of MHC class they respond Okay, so you started toxic t

36:24 . So let me before I do . So there's also another thing.

36:29 , t cells recognize MHC molecules self and they also recognize antigen.

36:40 so antigen and MHC molecules, that you're gonna have a receptor for

36:44 Okay, so you see here the A C receptor what they're calling a

36:51 cell receptor. Okay. Here which the edge. And then there was

36:57 co receptor and that binds to the molecule type. Okay, so CB

37:04 recognizes self engines. Class one. ones. Cd four core receptor recognizes

37:11 Class two tells you. Ok, class type recognized, Told you

37:17 what kind of cells to interact Right, so, you remember class

37:20 or what you see there macrophages? cells and B cells. So these

37:24 up being what we call T helper sub h. How we designate them

37:32 and two. Okay. And the interact with B cells, the ones

37:41 macrophages and dendritic cells. And of , and this is only one type

37:47 here, side of toxic T And so recognizing self engine type

37:52 So, your type ones of are basically all of your body

37:55 right, liver cells, skin etcetera. Okay, so any of

38:00 cells that potentially get infected virus or then? Uh potentially they could be

38:06 out by um side of toxic T . Okay. Um so let's look

38:13 little closer at that. So, what we call cell mediated immunity ah

38:21 these these T cells interact specifically with cell types. Okay. And create

38:26 effects. And so dealing with intracellular , of course, right infected cells

38:33 again, it's not necessarily doesn't apply every virus infected cell and may vary

38:38 terms of effect. You know, depends on, you know, the

38:42 of the cell that's infected to show . I'm guessing there are times maybe

38:48 on the viral infection type that it be better or worse at that,

38:53 on the viral type I'm assuming. But nonetheless, uh we all know

39:00 viral infection are approaches were made, have to assemble and so forth.

39:04 during that process and then they receive made money affect itself and buy into

39:10 of these viral antigens and bringing to surface. Okay. Um similarly we'll

39:18 this next time. But you know are bacterial types that can do this

39:22 they do it not for the purpose using the cell to replicate but to

39:26 out. And so that may be engines from that can sometimes be uh

39:34 as well. Nonetheless, the point the engines that are shown. They

39:38 potentially be recognized by T cells side toxic T cells. Okay. And

39:43 so that binding will initiate a release chemicals. Some of these chemicals will

39:51 into the membrane much like a We've seen these chemicals before, preference

39:58 natural killer cells. Defense is a . We saw an innate immune

40:05 They kind of act like just puncturing cell membrane. Creative license. They

40:10 can produce chemicals that induce a popped sis remember that's that program cell death

40:15 tells the cell to basically destroy The bottom line is if it's a

40:21 cell of sometime if you want to rid of it running out of population

40:24 obviously a virus infected cell can produce viruses. So you want to get

40:29 , get it taken care of. , so that's what sort of toxic

40:33 cells do. Um so too can killer cells in a little bit different

40:38 . Okay. Not necessarily as specific this but they too can deal with

40:43 in fact itself. Okay so the . Helper cells the type one and

40:51 two. So we talked about this before. Uh this is about activating

40:58 macrophage or dendritic cell using a Helper cell of the type one

41:05 And so these recognize MHC 2s which course are on these cell types

41:10 These engine presenting cells and so again binding leads to um release of

41:18 Okay. And these can um it two ways you'll have cited and released

41:24 the T. Helper cells but also the in this case macrophage.

41:30 And that can lead to further activation more T helper cells uh it will

41:37 this. So remember that activating one these means you are you are creating

41:44 effect over here. We saw this . So here's a resting macrophage and

41:49 are all activated macrophages. So the of membrane folds these little arms sticking

41:55 increases because that potentially can increase the of it to bind and engulf microbes

42:02 enhanced activity. You you want to certainly in the time of an

42:06 So um and so the T. type two as we saw their function

42:12 in the tea T cell dependent b activation. Right? Helping B cells

42:19 activated. Um So many. Not any questions about the cells Yeah it's

42:30 different between t side of France Yes there is because natural killer cells

42:36 not respond to androgen the same Plus I'm doing part of the story

42:42 out here because I'm not trying to too bogged down that side of toxic

42:46 cells can also have memory. They also proliferate and they can produce a

42:53 of them that was brought into the antigen and natural killer cells don't work

42:57 way. Okay. Um They do for so natural killer cells look for

43:02 that lack MHC molecules, so a bit different function and not really looking

43:08 antigen more for kind of like anomalies the membrane that having a lack of

43:15 engines would would be something like Okay. So similar. Maybe similar

43:19 terms of what they look for but similar in terms of how to do

43:22 and how they function. Yeah. . Exactly. Exactly. Yeah.

43:32 right. Exactly. Exactly. Right. Um Okay, so this

43:39 this is actually one thing. It's kind of not that complicated but you're

43:43 your book doesn't mention it really. Let's look at this question here.

43:47 it kind of follows starting here. . And then going down two types

43:55 of adaptive immunity and then there's another alright, active or passive, so

44:02 what do you think would represent Mhm. Which would represent the

44:08 Which would probably be vaccination. Best . Okay if the majority is

44:56 It is c okay so you can what would uh what would ah let

45:08 think. What would a baby a acquiring um everybody's from his or her

45:16 during breastfeeding? Yeah it's naturally required it's not like an active response.

45:23 . Right. Natural part. So have basically four flex. Right?

45:28 basically it's naturally acquired artificially. I we can probably figure that out pretty

45:33 . Right so it's are you getting shot basically? Are you acquiring into

45:37 infection or um uh or passively as mother to the child? Um And

45:47 course the active passive process is is body actively making them or not?

45:54 and so certainly vaccination or infection. ? As a response to an allergen

46:01 you your body is producing those So both of us will be active

46:05 is obviously using a needle is artificially um A passive process. Of course

46:11 not making them. So the baby not making the antibodies but it's receiving

46:15 preformed ones from the mother. Similarly can go you can uh they do

46:21 shots of I think it's I think I. G. Is what they

46:25 give us a shot for various treatments you need. Okay obviously that's artificial

46:33 passive. Okay so um So that's 20. Well not quite because vaccines

46:40 still a part of it but in of the going through B cells and

46:45 cells, et cetera. They questions I move on civil look at some

46:50 of vaccinations. So we know vaccination um having just gone through it.

46:57 probably do this before this class But what you we haven't gone through

47:04 this Okay. So this table. . It's showing you obviously diseases on

47:13 side, infectious diseases of different types what's called an R. Value?

47:18 of the R. O. Is of the reproductive value of the infectious

47:23 . Okay. So if a person infected, how many other people could

47:31 that he or she potentially exposed to they would receive the disease?

47:35 It's a measure of contagiousness really. And so a single person that has

47:41 could could spread it to 12 or other people. Okay. Compared to

47:46 like mumps, which is 4-7. it's kind of a measure of contagious

47:50 diseases. Okay. And so then threshold value relates to herd immunity.

47:58 . So you've heard about herd immunity the last two years. Okay.

48:04 basically herd immunity means you have the , the majority of the population

48:14 What that value, it has to . Okay is what the threshold is

48:19 about. Okay, terms of the that needs to be fully vaccinated to

48:24 the herd effect. So what the effect herd effect is is that you

48:30 if you just do it like this I'm here. Okay. All

48:37 And I am sick. Okay. I have um and this person over

48:47 is sick. Okay. And so I say triangle equals fully. Give

48:57 nice person. Okay? So if have the majority of the population is

49:11 vaccinated against that particular infectious disease means the greater proportion of population is fully

49:22 . They can deal with it. ? So basically all the triangles are

49:26 as sinks to absorb the pathogen. ? So the chances of me getting

49:31 from this person. Okay. Is less obviously because I have layers of

49:41 around me that are vaccinated that can it and deal with it.

49:45 Because you're never going to have 100% immunization of anything. Right? Because

49:53 just can't get vaccinated for medical reasons or for for religious reasons or for

50:00 reason. Right? You're not gonna 100% compliance. So this is a

50:04 to protect those people. Okay. , um, so are we in

50:11 state of texas know in the United , are we at her community?

50:17 says yes. Is the United States herd herd immunity levels for covid?

50:29 . We've been getting there for like year and a half. We haven't

50:33 there. We had a In the 30 days or so. Once the

50:40 was out there was we got to about 25-30 In about a month or

50:46 months And it's been since then we've gotten to 66% since then. So

50:55 been it's been like this and then like that. Okay, So we

51:00 not close to her community for inspiring to go back to these values

51:05 So for of course it it will 68% 66% as of yesterday. Countrywide

51:13 terms of fully vaccinated, shot it boosted. Okay. Um That okay

51:24 is like around this this this range the low end. Okay. And

51:30 even even on low end you still to have within three quarters at least

51:34 the population uh for the vaccine now regional differences of course among the

51:42 what's the most? I didn't look all the United States but the what's

51:47 most fully vaccinated ST of? No vaccinated bad. Put your backs against

52:02 which which states in the United highest vaccination, fully vaccinated. Uh

52:12 . New York was 77% I think was up there as well. Uh

52:18 was Georgia at 54 Texas was at or below 54. Well above.

52:25 just had no historical 50 61 or . So anyway. Um But thankfully

52:32 variant that's out there, most common is one that's probably the most benign

52:37 . We're gonna get cold and get now. Um Anyway I've got it

52:43 I've had I've been vaccinated, I've boosted and I've got the and I

52:47 covid. So I think I'm Um So anyway, um Okay.

52:55 look at vaccines. Alright, so , the tables are more just kind

53:00 a summary thing. Don't you don't to memorize, you know, all

53:04 different types of agents that are literally and what types don't worry about

53:10 Um But you know, it's one to note is that there are lots

53:13 them fit into this category of live vaccine. So we're talking about attenuation

53:20 way back from the first lecture to the context of this historical and development

53:28 vaccines and pasture and etcetera. Um uh close as you can get to

53:36 actual live infectious agent actually the better is in terms of immune response.

53:43 the live attenuated vaccines are good are probably the best because it's it's it's

53:51 the most close closest version you have the infectious agent and its ability to

53:56 really key. So because there's differences vaccine types in terms of what are

54:05 are they stimulating the entire adaptive immune . So when you see this differentiation

54:11 it's activating both B cells and several T cells and everything right? Rather

54:19 just relying on activating humor community. ? So live attenuated vaccines, does

54:26 ? All right. They can activate all parts of the that immune system

54:32 means for a better longer lasting Okay. One that relies mostly on

54:38 immunity uh may not be as long . Okay, and ken wayne.

54:42 that tends to be kind of what's with Covid vaccine. Hence it's getting

54:47 . Okay. So but you some of it, I guess it

54:51 to do with the nature of the as well. Right? You can

54:54 can you can only work as well terms of your response as to what

54:58 trying to get a vaccine for. Anyway, so we went to the

55:04 of somebody. So the other thing point out is of course, that

55:07 at toxoid. Alright, so we think about microbes microbes microbes in terms

55:13 infectious disease. But remember that microbes toxic. The toxin itself can produce

55:19 isn't it can be an an urgent can produce antibodies tour the toxins.

55:23 , tetanus shot is basically a It's antibodies in there that will bind

55:29 the tetanus toxin. Okay. It's really about binding to the tetanus producing

55:36 . It's about getting because the effect coming from the toxins that it

55:40 So getting rid of. That is key and and diptheria as well as

55:44 number of microbes that produce toxins that have vaccines for toxoid as they call

55:50 . Okay, so live Attenuated How do you make them uh

55:56 Remember means to limit them or to uh but you do so but the

56:03 the the agents still retains its ability replicate to infect and replicate but it's

56:09 not able to cause disease. So disable the and the balance factors that

56:16 to cause disease. Okay. And um so it's a weekend of

56:22 But of course has all these antigens produces a response it can by by

56:29 virulent genes. You enable it to replicate but not but not to cause

56:36 of course. And so that will all portions of the different response by

56:43 yourselves but not causing disease. Then cells can present an engine And connective

56:50 side of toxic t cells. Um course B cells are activated. So

56:55 mean it actually it's both sides of adaptive immune response which is which is

57:00 good thing. And it's not surprisingly that that's many of your vaccines are

57:06 that type. Okay, measles, etcetera. Um inactivated killed vaccines.

57:13 there is a chance, although I not seen then it's that it's like

57:20 common effect. There's a rare occurrence there is the potential is there that

57:25 can mutate into a form that may infectious. Okay. Although lots of

57:30 testing is done but you can never 100% sure. But they've been using

57:34 back. I forget what they are . The measles and mumps and whatever

57:38 for decades. So but um but if you wanna go a step

57:43 you can with um inactivated killed vaccines these are the variety different ways.

57:49 can do it. Okay uh chemicals course certainly radiation etcetera. Any kind

57:55 stress that kills a an agent is it would do it. But it's

58:01 something that can replicate in your Okay. So you lose kind of

58:07 ability to stimulate as well your your mediated immunity. Okay so like psycho

58:14 t cells et cetera won't be So it's mostly just human community and

58:20 production typically may not last as long it may require repeated booster doses.

58:27 um but again both of these uh and killed. Attenuated, live attenuated

58:34 killed are both dealing with the whole of the whole intact microbe. And

58:41 we're looking at viruses but they can be bacterial as well. Okay.

58:46 the point is to hold the whole being used in both these not the

58:51 in subunit vaccines. Okay so these basically taking parts of the agent and

58:59 the parts of course are antigenics they're immune response. Taking those parts and

59:05 becomes your vaccine. So the different of that. You can simply just

59:09 the purified subject which is going to typically a protein that is your

59:15 Right? That's that's possible. Okay can then take it a different way

59:21 you can just prominent D. A. Gene cloning techniques to just

59:29 the gene that produces that particular engine clone that you can use a bacterial

59:34 to express it for you. Okay then you can isolate the protein that

59:39 . Okay um this method in the of vaccinations really just growing up the

59:44 and just blowing it up and just all the parts and that's your

59:48 Here's here's a more maybe a specific of doing it which I'm just expressing

59:54 engine itself and then isolating it and becomes the vaccine. Um You can

60:01 a vector you can use for example a plasma can be constructed that can

60:09 your agent that you inject. These what we call the DNA vaccines.

60:14 vaccine. And Covid vaccine is not the transcript uses M. R.

60:18 . A. As the uh as vaccine. And so the expression of

60:23 is what occurs. We'll talk about a little bit the competent vector

60:28 So these are basically using the in example the virus shell if you will

60:37 it and then manipulating the of course associated an envelope and associated you know

60:44 and whatnot on the surface as a . And then you put in you

60:48 the genome for what you want to in their different various genes for angie

60:53 things. But then the uh but uh becoming a vector vaccine is one

60:58 can infect a cell and express that . Okay the J. And

61:06 vaccine is of that type. So is the J. And J.

61:09 of this type. And the the modern modern fighter is of that type

61:16 . It's A. M. RNA DNA. Um the virus like

61:21 So these think of these as synthetic maybe. So let's say you can

61:27 a viral proteins and they can kind self assemble into a virus like particle

61:34 you can kind of insert genome of in there and manipulate it. HPV

61:41 , papillomavirus HPV can cause cervical And so this vaccine is constructed that

61:49 at least one of the forms is and so again that's not something that

61:55 is not something that will replicate. . But it can of course be

62:01 as a vehicle to maybe infect the but it's not really going to replicate

62:06 um and so are toxic. We about toxoid is inactivated toxins. And

62:12 um let's look at the place accurate . So as mentioned um your uh

62:23 are your best engines in terms of a very strong immune response followed by

62:29 and then a little bit lower down . Okay, so place cycle rides

62:35 of course never pathogens have have a . These are of course carbohydrate in

62:41 . And so but they tend not be uh as good in terms of

62:46 immune response but they do produce some not but not as good as it

62:50 be. But you you use what would use what you can write.

62:55 for example meningococcal vaccine that I'm assuming all got before coming to school.

63:02 Meningococcus is um it's very thick And so there's like five different engine

63:07 I think that we used as is streptococcus pneumonia i which is the pneumococcal

63:14 . So that one the meningococcal is for younger people. Uh The most

63:19 one is given to those my age older on the other end of the

63:23 . Okay. But not necessarily a . So you tend to be only

63:27 uh promote the humor immune response. but you can bring it up a

63:36 by adding a protein to it will a conjugated vaccine. Okay, so

63:42 can put the addition of a protein there to boost it up somewhat.

63:48 . And uh and so adding a enables a T. Cell activation to

63:57 as well. And so if you we talked earlier about The Place

64:02 Big Place Ackroyd can initiate activation of cells that um the T independent

64:10 Right? And that only produces plasma . Okay. Uh that produce antibodies

64:16 you're involved with T cell now t . Now you're not refuse plans myself

64:21 also a member itself. And that's definitely a good thing. Okay so

64:26 can help. And the example he here uh yeah there's a number of

64:32 to actually do this where they had had a protein to it to help

64:36 out in terms of immunogenicity. Um so okay gasses vaccine. So

64:42 you see um a uh here's a . Okay, so here's the

64:49 We would take out the uh isolate gene for the engine that produces a

64:56 and then insert that into a vector would be a plasmid vector. And

65:02 this is your product, this is bank scene. And so this to

65:07 what's called the gene gun sounds kind dramatic but it basically contains a solution

65:12 the plasma injected. This is going be an intra muscular injection. And

65:19 muscle cells are multi nuclear state. um plans with interest and absorbed by

65:26 cells that can express the gene prison . And then this can elicit a

65:35 by both T cells and B So it can give a very good

65:42 . Um the the covid vaccine is finds her is similar to this

65:49 correct becoming a vector vaccines. Um using a virus vector. So

65:55 a DNA virus um that's when that's used heavily for a number of years

66:02 in this capacity as a vehicle to put in a in this case is

66:08 flu flu vaccine. So the influenza gene or genes are then cloned into

66:16 I don't know virus genome Of course coronavirus the jeans and the hantavirus genome

66:21 inactivated That would enable it to cause . So uh so this but this

66:27 can infect the cell and uh that will express these antigens again, showing

66:34 to the immune system. Okay, and J vaccine is like this.

66:40 , so if we look at covid then we have a pretty familiar with

66:46 illustration. Uh remember the spikes out are the tell me are of

66:52 That's what the vaccine the engine is the vaccine that uh in its

66:58 Okay. The yellow ones here, proteins and for the Moderna Moderna Advisor

67:06 , something like this. Okay, usually M RNA. Okay. And

67:14 from the covid virus despite protein, gene for that's what we want to

67:19 . And so we get this out the way. So the so the

67:27 , the there we go. So if you recall uh looked at bacterial

67:35 and compared them to eukaryotic jeans, you can have a lot of processing

67:40 goes on, right? We'll form transcript and then the transcript has to

67:43 stuff put on it and then we to chop it up right to make

67:47 translatable transcript. So that's what you here are these elements to cap and

67:51 tail. You tr these are all a an army transcript must have if

67:59 going to be translatable, right? have these elements. It's not going

68:05 work. Okay, so of course genie in the middle is this gene

68:10 the spike collectible protein here. Okay um so these were constructed and then

68:18 is what basically comprises the vaccine. it was a bit simplistic because it's

68:24 just um just having M. N. A. Suspended in the

68:31 is not gonna work very well. don't think because RNA s aren't by

68:37 aren't inherently super stable. Okay they break down so you want to have

68:44 delivery system that will keep that will them basically. But we'll look at

68:53 here in a second. But the of the MRT of course to sell

68:58 enable it to then express it and the engine is expressed on the

69:02 And then of course that can involve cells B cells produce antibodies uh these

69:08 what we call neutralizing antibodies that will the virus and then severely hindering its

69:16 to infect cells obviously. Okay so is the actual process. Um again

69:23 don't need to memorize the slides but is the the colonial of the

69:28 Expressing it in terms of the Um but then again like I said

69:34 don't just suspend these RNA is in liquid and off you go have a

69:39 . They use this vehicle here called lipid nanoparticle which is something it's not

69:44 lipid bi layer right? That you 22 layers of lipids here but it's

69:49 bicycle. It's basically coding something as shell to hold these um transcripts

69:57 And so uh this is a delivery that's going to have it's gonna be

70:02 to maintain the viability of these transcripts better than if they're just not enclosed

70:08 that. Okay. And it is course is something that will that can

70:14 with a a membrane and then enable into the cell. Okay, so

70:23 the now the J and J Okay, so this this is not

70:30 a a pre existing microbe or right? It's just they artificially constructed

70:38 membrane around it, if you Okay, proprietary technology. Of course

70:43 did this company developed um and of tested out the wazoo I'm sure uh

70:48 to work optimally. Um now the and J vaccine. Okay, so

70:56 little different strategy using remember the predominant vector model. And um the spike

71:06 for the spike protein of course is closing to the vector which is then

71:12 the virus here. Um then the oops, sorry then we in fact

71:23 vaccine contains these viral particles with the containing the gene for the spike protein

71:30 effects the virus infects so and so . So basically four steps 4 and

71:38 , what's different, of course with and J is the delivery system.

71:41 . And of course we're expressing uh to the energon and and showing the

71:46 . That's the same as with the Advisor vaccine. So this process is

71:50 same. They're just a construction. the front part of the strategy is

71:55 little different. Okay, so, , again, producing the same type

72:01 neutralizing antibodies. Ok, so, , stop. Okay. Hey,

72:08 questions? Yeah. Pretty much. than you have, um, It's

72:19 just the transcript itself, it's part the gene is part of a chromosome

72:23 or a larger vector than than than Pfiser one. Right. Right.

72:30 . Thanks folks. See you
