25
spleen function
1. removal of abnormal blood cells by phagocytes 2. storage of iron 3. initiates immune response by B and T cells
26
What are the 2 major divisions in the body defenses?
innate (nonspecific) and adaptive (specific)
27
innate/nonspecific defenses
``` physical barriers phagocytes immunological surveillance inteferons complement inflammatory response fever ```
28
chemical messengers that trigger production of antiviral proteins in normal cells
inteferons
29
system of circulating proteins that assist antibodies in destruction of pathogens
complement
30
localized tissue level response that tends to limit spread of injury or infection
inflammatory response
31
what are different types of phagocytic cells
microphages- neutrophils and eosinophils | macrophages- fixed and free
32
what cell does immunological surveillance and what chemical does it use to destroy the pathogen
NK cells, perforins
33
what cell is chiefly responsible for starting and maintaining the inflammatory response; what 2 chemicals does it secrete?
mast cell; histamine and heparin
34
initiates or enhances the inflammatory response
histamine
35
anticoagulant
heparin
36
what are the effects of the inflammatory response
temporary repair and barrier against pathogens retards spread of pathogens into surrounding area mobilization of local and synthetic defenses facilitation of regeneration
37
what are the 4 hallmark signs of inflammation
swelling/tumor, redness/rubor, heat/calor, pain/dolar
38
what are the 2 types of immunity?
active and passive
39
what are the 2 types of gained immunity
naturally and artificially aquired
40
types of immunity 1. child exposed to live flu virus 2. baby breast feeding 3. vaccine of MMR 4. antibodies like gamma globulin
1. active natural 2. natural passive 3. active artificial 4. passive artificial
41
what are the 4 properties of immunity?
specificity, versatility, memory, and tolerance
42
what cells are involved in cell-mediated immunity?
T cells
43
role of class 1 MHC
pick up small peptides in cell and carry to the surface
44
role of class 2 MHC
use antigenic fragments and antigen-presenting cells (APC) which activate T cells
45
role of CD8
found on Tc and Ts cells, responds to class 1 MHC
46
role of CD4
found on Th and responds to antigens on class 2 MHC
47
Class 1 triggers what cells
T cells and all nucleated cells
48
class 2 triggers what cells
phagocytic APCs- free and fixed macrophages, Kupfer cells (liver), microglia (CNS), Langerhans (skin), and dendritic cells of lymph nodes and spleen
49
A cell activated by CD8 will undergo what steps to destroy the antigen presenting cell?
release perferin, secrete lymphotoxin, activates genes in target cell that cause it to die
50
What are 4 key points of cytokine secretion from Th cells?
1. stem cell divisions 2. attract and stimulate macrophages 3. attract and stimulate Tc cells 4. promote activity of B cells
51
B cell preperation for activation where antigens are processed in cell and reappear on surface bound to class 2 MHC
sensitization
52
role of plasma
synthesize and secrete antibodies
53
What is the structure of an antibody
2 parallel pairs of polypeptide chains, one heavy and one light, where each chain contains constant segments and variable segments
54
has 2 antigenic determinate sites
complete antigen
55
must attach to a carrier molecule to act as a complete antigen
hapten
56
what are the 7 effects of immunoglobulins
1. neutralization of antigen binding sites 2. precipitation and agglutination (immune complex) 3. activates complement 4. activates phagocytes 5. opsonization increases phag efficiency 6. stimulation of inflammation 7. prevention of bacterial and viral adhesion
57
class of antibody IgG
resistance against toxins, most abundant and diverse, cross placenta
58
class of antibody IgE
release histamine (allergies), basophils and mast cells
59
class of antibody IgD
molecule on B cells that binds antigens (sensitization)
60
class of antibody IgM
first class secreted after antigen encountered, plasma cells, causes agglutination of cross match
61
class of antibody IgA
glandular secretions attack pathogens before they gain access to internal tissues, mucus, tears, saliva, semen
62
a malfunction of system that recognizes and ignores normal antigens
autoimmune disorder
63
result from problems w embryological development of lymphoid tissues, viral infections (HIV), immunosuppressant drugs or radiation treatments
immunodeficiency disease
64
can be fatal, affects cells throughout body that produces swelling
anaphylaxis
65
circulatory collapse from anaphylaxis
anaphalactic shock
66
what is the role of an antihistamine
drugs that block histamine release from mast cells
