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 MHCclass 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
