MHC

The principal function of T cells are :
Defense against intracellular microbes
Activation of other cells(B cells ,Macrophages )

peptide recognition by T and B cells is
different.
B cells recognize soluble as well as cell associated Ags
In contrast ,T cells recognize peptide which is displaying only
by APC in associated with MHC proteins.
MHC





MHC genes are the most polymorphic genes
MHC genes are codominantly expressed in each
individual
There are two main type of MHC:class I & II
The physiologic function of MHC molecules is
presentation of peptides to T cells ,control of
immune responsiveness to all proteins and graft
rejection
MHC-I present cytosolic peptides to T cytotoxic
cells and MHC-II present endocytosed peptides
to Th cells
MHC –I structure
MHC-II structure
T cell receptor and MHC
interaction
