Q

What are defensins and cathelicidins? What are their modes of action?

A

Cathelicidins (Cationic Helical bacteriCidal proteIn)

  • alpha-helical peptide
  • PMNs, mucosal, epithelial cells

Defensins
-beta-strand peptides (+) charge

  • *increase cell membrane permeability –> cell death
  • *modulate inflammatory response

Q

Describe the pathway of events involved in the activation of the acute inflammatory response up to the point of the presence of Th1 CD4+ T cells.

A
  1. presents of microbes
  2. Tissue damage, complement activation
  3. release of inflammatory cytokines
    - TNFalpha
    - IL-1
    - INFgama
  4. recruitment of leukocytes

28
Q

Describe the pathway of events involved in the activation of the acute inflammatory response up to the point of the presence of Th1 CD4+ T cells.

A
  1. microbe gets past physical barrier
  2. Tissue damage, complement activation

or

TLR on resident macrophage recognizes PAMP/DAMP

  1. release of inflammatory cytokines
    - TNFalpha–> M1 “angry macrophage”
    - IL-1
    - INFgama
  2. recruitment of leukocytes
    - MHC II on APCs
