The Immune System scattered organs cells that “wander”

Innate Immunity
• Cells constantly patrol body • Only a few types of cells
– Macrophages, DCs, NK cells, neutrophils – Recognize pathogens by the pattern of their microbial
surface components rather than by a specific antigenic sequence
• Copy number is high • Guaranteed supply • Rapidly recruited to site of infection • Immediate response
![Page 4: Functional Anatomy of the Lymph Node and other Secondary ... · 1/27/2015 · Functional Anatomy of the Lymph Node and other Secondary Lymphoid Organs Jan 27, 2015 .

Adaptive Immunity
• Number of specialized cells (different specificities) ranges in the millions
• Copy numbers for each are very low= just a few hundred
• Relevant clones must be activated and numbers greatly expanded
• Encounters with DC presenting cognate Ag is required and occurs by chance
![Page 5: Functional Anatomy of the Lymph Node and other Secondary ... · 1/27/2015 · Functional Anatomy of the Lymph Node and other Secondary Lymphoid Organs Jan 27, 2015 .

Challenges to the Immune System
• High diversity of B/T–cell repertoire • 20-2,000 cells for each specificity,
therefore rather rare • Encounters between APCs and T-cells are
“stochastic” • Need to facilitate the encounters with
pathogens/ antigen presenting cells • How to solve the “needle in a haystack”??

Adaptive Immunity Depends on Secondary Lymphoid Tissue (SLO)
• Secondary (peripheral) lymphoid tissue is specialized to:
– Trap antigen/ capture pathogens
– Facilitate interactions between cells to initiate an immune response
– Provide factors to support survival and differentiation of lymphocytes
• Particular organs developed for high throughput: – Lymph node …… filters lymph – Spleen………….. filters blood – Peyer’s patches/tonsils… digestive tract

“Lymph nodes are compact immunological projections of the patch of peripheral tissue
that they drain.” -Lammerham and Sixt Immuno Rev 2008
• DCs collect information/ antigens in the periphery
• migrate by afferent lymphatics to draining LN
• “The big advantage of this system is that instead of scanning the whole periphery, naïve T cells just visit lymph nodes…”

Lymph node is the best understood SLO Questions??
1. How do “the players” enter the lymph node? • Pathogens/ Antigens • APCs (DCs) • Lymphocytes
2. Where do they meet 3. How does the structure facilitate productive
interactions 4. How do cells leave

Understanding the functional anatomy of the lymph node…
“The anatomy of the LNs is complex, extremely dynamic and until 2001, it was largely ignored by immunologists.”
-Lammerham and Sixt Immuno Rev 2008
- changed by development of intravital
microscopy - 2 photon confocal microscopy allows
visualization of living cells in tissues to a depth of several hundred microns

Lymph node “skeleton”
• Stroma (reticular tissue) is a form of fibrous connective tissue consisting of a 3-d meshwork of reticular cells and reticular fibers. – Fibroblastic reticular cells: star-shaped cells
with a central nucleus and many long thin cytoplasmic processes by which the individual cells connect.
– Reticular fibers run along the processes and in the space between the cells- are wrapped up by the cells that make them.

Function of conduit system: lymph
• Connects subcapsular sinus to outside of HEVs
• Transports small molecules (<70kDa) rapidly to HEVs
• Could include chemokines from sites of inflammation= “remote control system”
• Larger particulates= Pathogens (bacteria and viruses) rapidly caught by macrophages in subcapsular and medullary sinuses

Functions of conduit system: Ag
• Resident DCs interspersed with FRCs sample the fluid inside conduits
• Explore lumen of conduits by cellular projections
• Pick up antigens and show them to T-cells that pass by to initiate response
• Maintenance depends on DCs entering from the site of antigen (emigrated= second wave of antigen presentation)

Two types of lymphoid follicle
Primary Secondary
Mantle Zone (cap) of resting B cells
Germinal Center Light zone: more mature, smaller centrocytes contact follicular dendritic cells Dark zone: closely packed, rapidly dividing centroblasts
Germinal Centers •Are formed when activated B cells enter lymphoid follicles and proliferate •Somatic hypermutation •Affinity maturation •Isotype switching •Selected B cells will mature to plasma cells or become memory cells

Follicular dendritic cell: APC • Present in germinal centers • Specialized non-hematopoetic stromal cell • Displays whole Ag on surface; Ag “depot”
prolongs immune response – Have CR1, CR2 complement receptors – Have FC receptors – B-cells can carry Ag to the FDC
• Critical for selection of B-cells that will produce antibodies that will recognize the antigen
• Since affinity maturation occurs here, play role in selecting high affinity B-cells

Contemporary multiphoton microscopy has revived an
interest in the functional histology of the lymphoid organs. The
superficial location of some lymph nodes has facilitated visualization of the behavior of these cells and
this is a very active research area.

Functional Histology of the Spleen
• Technical limitations in Intravital microscopy have prevented visualization of cell interactions and movements in the spleen (depth and anatomical location)
• However, can postulate that they are similar to that described for lymph node

Functional histology • T-cell zone- T cells interact with DCs and B
cells • B- cell follicles- clonal expansion and activated
B cells, isotype switching, somatic hypermutation
• Marginal zone- analogous to LN subcapsular sinus – Blood enters MZ and all cells enter the white pulp
through the marginal zone – recognition of blood borne pathogens – innate immunity.. macrophages – adaptive immunity..APCs to T cell zone
