ural killer cells and macrophages * today’s lecture brainstorm basic organization and function of the immune system lymphocyte development immune activation and response immune suppression and tolerance * why do stem cell transplants fail? immune issues impact stem cell therapies major histocompatibility complex is a person’s combination of cell surface proteins that lymphocytes use to tell “self” from “non-self” allogeneic transplants fail because there isn’t a match, and lymphocytes destroy the non-self cells allogeneic: taken from different individuals of the same species. two or more individuals are said to be allogeneic to one another when the genes at one or more loci are not identical. you may wish to talk about graft vs. host disease, another reason why stem cell transplants fail. here, immune cells from the donor are inevitably transplanted along with the stem cells. these will attack the patient’s tissues (invade from the outside). * immune tolerance research …
