thymus-dependent (TD) antigens
B response to TD Ag requires direct contact with Th cells,
thymus-independent (TI) antigens
TI- 1 Ag
bacterial cell-wall components,
lipopolysaccharide (LPS),
TI-2 Ag

Recognition of TD Ag

B cell epitope
Receptor-mediated Ag endocytosis
T cell epitope-MHC II presentation
BCR serves 2 roles:
1.
Ag-induced clustering of BCRs
delivers signals that initiate the
activation process.
2.
BCR internalize the Ag into
endosome, process and present on
surface for T recognition
Signal 1
From antigen
Signal 3
From Th
Signal 2
From Th
Antigen crosslinks mIg(BCR), generating signal 1, which leads to
increased expression of class II MHC and costimulatory B7.
Antigen–BCR complexes are internalized by receptor-mediated
endocytosis and degraded to peptides, which are bound by class II
MHC and presented as peptide–MHC complexes.
Th cell recognizes Ag–class II MHC and B7-CD28 co-stimulation on Bcell membrane which activates TH cell.
Th cell begins to express CD40L.
Interaction of CD40 and CD40L provides signal 2.
Th cell release large quantities of cytokines(IL-4) signal 3 to
support the progression of the B cell replication and differentiation.
Signal 3
Th-secreting cytokines

Bruton’s disease
a genetically determined immunodeficiency disease
inability to synthesize all classes of antibody.
discovered in 1952 by O. C. Bruton.
Case:
a young boy who had mumps 3 times and experienced 19 different
episodes of serious bacterial infections during 4 years.
Do not raise Abs to any vaccines.
1937，Tiselius use Electrophoresis to analyze the serum proteins
Which comprised of 5 components：
albumin、a1、a2、b、g globulin

Pathogenesis: failures in B-cell development.
inhibition pro–B to pre–B-cell transition
In 1990s, the gene was cloned which
encodes Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (Btk).
Btk play important roles in B-cell signaling
vital to the function of mature B cells
Absence of Btk results in the failure of B
activation and Ab generation
B cells and humoral immune response
1. Recognition of the specific Ag
2. Activation, proliferation, differentiation
1) 2-signal activation
2) signal transduction
3) proliferation
2. Germinal center: later event
3. General feature of Ab response
Early and late event in Ab response to TD antigen
Early events：
follicle（B）-paracortex（T）border,
B activation and T-B activation
Small amounts of Ab production
Late events：

1、somatic hypermutation
In presence of Ag , by Th’s co-stimulation
Point Mutation of CDR in the Ig V region
Affinity-enhanced BCR(B cell) is selected
affinity maturation
2、affinity maturation
Result of somatic hypermutation of B cell
B cells with high affinity would survive
Affinity enhancement
3、Ig class (isotype) switch
In response to CD40-CD40L signal and IL-4 from Th cell, the activated
B cells undergo the process of heavy chain isotype (class) switching
leading to production of Abs with different class of heavy chain.
