BIO-310: Immunology

Lectures in this course (58)

Explores B and T cell receptors, their structures, and antigen recognition specificities.

Explores the history, development, structure, and recognition of antibodies, including antigen types and recognition characteristics.

Explores the generation of diverse B and T lymphocytes with specific receptors.

Explores antigen maturation, MHC interaction, and presentation pathways to activate T cells.

Explores the presentation of antigens by MHC molecules and its impact on immune responses.

Explains antigen recognition by B and T cells, focusing on B cell responses and T cell activation.

Explores dendritic cells' role in antigen presentation to T cells.

Covers the capture, migration, and presentation of antigens by dendritic cells.

Explores T cell signaling pathways, proliferation, differentiation, and immune interactions with a focus on CD40 ligand and cytokines.

Explores the activation of T cells by APCs, emphasizing co-stimulation and adherence in the process.

Covers the phases of T-cell responses, from activation to differentiation.

Explores the differentiation of CD4+ T cells into Th1 and Th2 subgroups, each with distinct immune response functions.

Explains the main features of effector T cell responses and their functions in defending against intracellular microbes.

Explores Th1 response activation, macrophage killing mechanisms, cytokine production, and immune responses to infections.

Covers the activation and differentiation of CD8+ T cells into effector cells.

Explores the effector functions of antibodies, neutralization, complement activation, mast cell degranulation, and the escape of humoral immunity.

Explores B cell differentiation pathways, affinity maturation, and germinal center reactions.

Explores B cell activation in response to T-dependent antigens, including signal transduction and antigen presentation to T cells.

Explores the activation phases and responses of B cells to different antigens, including thymus-independent type 1 and type 2 antigens.

Explains the B cell immune response, including differentiation, effector phase, antibody secretion, and B cell development.
