Q

what kind of cell is this? (arrow)

A

macrophage

17
Q

where do macrophages come from?

A

monocytes; activated by IFN-gamma

18
Q

which cell has CD14 and what does it do?

A

macrophage

lipid A (LPS) binds CD14 –> septic shock

19
Q

what kinds of cells are these (short fat arrows)?

A

eosinophils (bilobate nucleus, eosinophilic granules)

20
Q

what do eosinophils produce?

A

histaminase

major basic protein (kills helminths)

21
Q

what are causes of eosinophila?

A

NAACP

neoplasia

asthma

allergic processes

chronic adrenal insufficiency

parasites

22
Q

what kinds of cells are these (long skinny arrows)?

A

basophils

basophilic granules

23
Q

what are in basophil granules?

A

heparain and histamine

leukotrienes synthesized on demand

24
Q

when do you see basophilia?

A

CML

25
Q

what kind of cell is this (arrow)?

A

mast cell

basophilic granules (less basophilic than basophil)

26
Q

how do mast cells work?

A

bind Fc portion of IgE –> facilitate cross-linking with Ag binding

release histamine, heparin, eosinophil chemotactic factors

27
Q

what does cromolyn sodium do?

A

prevents mast cell degranulation - asthma ppx

28
Q

what kind of cell is this?

A

lymphocyte

clock face chromatin

abundant RER and well-developed Golgi
