Cytokines and leukotrienes
T lymphocytes are found in the ___ areas of the lymph nodes and in the __ areas of the spleen
Paracortical areas of lymph node
Peroarterioler areas of the spleen
Surface markers present in suppressor T cells
Pan T markers: CD3,2,5
Subtype of helper t cells that stimulate production of most opsonizing and complement fixing bodies
TH1
Subtype of t helper cells that secrete cytokines that stimulate the production of IgE and activate eosinophils
TH2
Major cytokine that activates macrophages
Interferon
what is the most important APC for initiating prinary immune response
Dendritic cells
What are immature dendritic cells within the epidermis
Langerhans cells
Receptors and MHC class of helper t cells
CD4
MHC Class II
What is the major cytokine that activates macrophages
Interferon
What is the most important antigen presenting cell
Dendritic cells
Morphologic name of NK cells
Large granular lymphocytes
Cell surface molecules in NK cells that gives the ability to lyse IgG coated target cells
CD16 cell surface molecules
Adaptive immunity that acts in intracellular microbes
Cell mediated immunity
__ immunity develops responses to soluble antigens
Humoral immunity
__ immunity develops responses to insoluble antigens
Cell mediated immunity / cellular immunity
What cytokine activates and initiates proliferation of naive T cells
IL-2
What is the critical event in anaphylaxis that leads to degranulation of the maat cell
Bridging of IgE
Most potent eosinophil activator (interleukin)
IL-5
___ immunity develops a response to soluble antigens
Humoral immunity
__ immunity develops a response to insoluble antigens
Cellular immunity (cell-mediated immunity)
What cytokine initiates the activation and proliferation of T cells
IL-2
What kind of test would you request if you are asking for MHC Class I?
Simple serologic assay
What kind of test would you request if you are asking for MHC class II?
Mixed lymphocyte assay
