Lymphocyte is a type of white blood cell in the immune system of jawed vertebrate. Lymphocytes include natural killer cells (which function in cell-mediated, cytotoxic innate immunity), T cells (for cell-mediated, cytotoxic adaptive immunity), and B cells (for humoral, antibody-driven adaptive immunity). They are the main type of cell found in lymph, which prompted the name "lymphocyte". Th all myeloid and lymphoid cells develop from one type of stem cell called as Hematopoietic stem cell is a undifferentiated cell give rise to further diffetentiation of all the immune cell as well as blood cells include the T- cell and B-cell. The B-cell is synthesis and matured in the Bone Marrow and T- cell is synthesis in Bone marrow but matured in the thymus. In this topic will be discussed how the B-cell and T-cell are developed

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
New Drug Discovery and Development .....NEHA GUPTA
The "New Drug Discovery and Development" process involves the identification, design, testing, and manufacturing of novel pharmaceutical compounds with the aim of introducing new and improved treatments for various medical conditions. This comprehensive endeavor encompasses various stages, including target identification, preclinical studies, clinical trials, regulatory approval, and post-market surveillance. It involves multidisciplinary collaboration among scientists, researchers, clinicians, regulatory experts, and pharmaceutical companies to bring innovative therapies to market and address unmet medical needs.

5. Monoclonal Antibodies
▪Monoclonal antibodies (mAb or moAb)
▫antibodies made by identical immune cells - clones of a
unique parent cell.
▫monovalent affinity - bind to the same epitope.
▪Polyclonal antibodies
▫bind to multiple epitopes
▫usually made by several different plasma cell lineages.
6.
7. History
▪First monoclonal antibody produced in 1975
▪With the advent of hybridoma technology to produce mAbs –
▫generate very large numbers of mAbs directed against leukocyte cell
surface molecules
▫generally using whole cells as immunogen.
▪Initially, surface antigens were named after the monoclonal
antibodies that bound to them.
8. ▪The problem was that several mAbs produced by different
laboratories (under different names) were actually directed
against the same molecule (same antigen different epitopes).
Lab A
Lab B
Lab C
9. ▪This resulted in the chaotic naming of molecules
▪Adaptation of a consistent nomenclature was necessary.
▪The cluster of differentiation (CD) nomenclature system was
conceived to classify antigens found on the surface of leukocytes.
11. ▪Physiologically, CD antigens do not belong in any particular class
of molecules
Immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily
Scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) superfamily
TNF superfamily
Regulators of complement/CÆ activation (RCA) family
Integral membrane proteins
▪CD act as receptors or ligands to play the functions such as
cell signaling and cell adhesion etc.
▪CD system normally plays a role as a cell marker in immune
purpose to recognize the molecules in the cells’ surface.
12. ▪Although initially used for just human leukocytes, the CD molecule
naming convention has now been expanded to cover both other species
(e.g. mouse) as well as other cell types.
▪At present, CD markers range from CD1 to CD371
▪Some CDs covering a group of closely related proteins or
carbohydrates (e.g.,CD1a,CD1b,CD1c,andCD1d).
▪The total number of assigned CDs is 401.
13.

16.
17. HDLA Workshops
▪HLDA (Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens) Workshops were created to
establish the nomenclature of leukocyte cell surface molecules by using mAbs from
different laboratories.
▪The current nomenclature system was adopted in 1982, during the 1st
International HLDA Workshop in Paris.
▪The HLDA Workshops have since provided a forum for the characterization and
study of leucocyte surface molecules and antibodies against them - compare the
ability of monoclonal antibodies to react with human cells and/or human cell
proteins.
▪HLDA devised the CD nomenclature, which is sanctioned by the IUIS (International
Union of Immunological Societies)/WHO Nomenclature Committee.
▪Latest work shop held in 2014 – HDLA10
18. Current Nomenclature
system
▪Monoclonal antibodies that have similar patterns of reactivity with
various tissues or cell types are assigned to a cluster group.
▪An antigen well recognized by a cluster or a group of of antibodies
can be assigned a cluster of differentiation number, or CD number
(e.g. CD1, CD2 etc)
▪The CD nomenclature is also used to name antigen and the
antibodies.
▫Ex:-CD4 designates both the group of mAbs recognizing the CD4
cell surface molecule, as well as the CD4 molecule itself.
19. ▪A lowercase “w” preceding the number designation stands for “workshop”
▫e.g. CDw12
▫Indicates CD designation is tentative.
▫Denotes an insufficiently characterized Ab or molecule.
▫In some cases, corresponds to a molecule defined by only one Ab submitted to the HLDA
Workshops.
▪Most of the provisional CDw-designated Ags of the early workshops turned out
to correspond to clusters of mAbs recognizing carbohydrate epitopes, which
after proper biochemical identification received their own CD number
▫e.g., CD176 = Thomsen-Friedenreich, carbohydrate Ag
20. ▪Uppercase letters following a CD number designate a spliced variant of the
extracellular domain of a cell surface molecule.
▫For example, CD45RA or CD45RO corresponds to splice variants of CD45.
▪A lowercase letter following the CD number - share a common chain
▫ e.g., CD1a, CD1b, CD1c, CD1d, or CD1e - β2-microglobulin.
▫Other examples are the integrin chains CD11a, CD11b, and CD11c, - share CD18 as a common chain
to form different dimers.
▪In other cases, lowercase letters have been used to name different members
of the same gene family, as is the case with CD66 (CD66a, CD66b, CD66c,
CD66d, CD66e, and CD66f).
21. ▪The CD nomenclature is also frequently used to describe lymphocyte and
leukocyte subsets.
▪The presence or absence of a specific antigen from the surface of particular
cell or cell population is denoted with “+” or “-“ respectively. (Ex CD4+, CD34+,
CD62-)
▪If a particular CD molecule is expressed at different levels by a cell subset, the
superscript “high” or “low” can be added
▫central memory T cells are CD62L high whereas effector memory T cells are CD62L low.
▪CD4+CD45RAlowCD45ROhigh
22. Importance of CD
▪By monitoring the expression profiles of different CD antigens
▫Identification
▫Isolation
▫Phenotyping of cell types according to their function in various immune
processes.
▪The antibodies - useful as markers for cell populations
▫Counting
▫Separation
▫functional study of numerous subsets of cells of the immune system.
24. Type I
Transmembrane
proteins
▪COOH-termini in the cytoplasm and their NH2-termini outside
the cell.
▪Generally has a signal sequence at the NH2-terminus - cleaved
off after the molecule passes into the endoplasmic reticulum.
▪These proteins commonly serve as cell surface receptors
and/or ligands.
▪Many belong to the immunoglobulin superfamily. Ex – CD3
26. Type III
Transmembrane
proteins
▪Cross the plasma membrane more than once. Some pass
through the bilayer as many as 12 times.
▪Because they cross the membrane multiple times - form
channels that often are used to transport ions or small
molecules through the lipid bilayer.
▪Ex - CD20 - form a calcium channel for B lymphocytes that
is required for B-cell activation.
27. Type IV
Transmembrane
proteins
▪Type IV proteins are also transmembrane channels but is formed by
bringing together a number of independent helical segments rather
than connected as a single polypeptide
▪None of the current CD antigens have type IV membrane
organization.
28. Type V
Transmembrane
proteins
▪These proteins use lipid to attach themselves to
the plasma membrane.
▪The most common attachment for extracellular
proteins - glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI)
anchor.
29. Type of cell CD markers

▪CD4 also interacts directly with MHC class II
molecules on APCs -> antigen recognition.
33. CD4
▪HIV-1 uses CD4 to entry into host T cells through
viral envelope protein gp120.
