Q

eosinophiles info

A

target parasites

17
Q

what is something that has
no phagocytosis
releases products that are toxic to the microbe and
release chemical signaling molecules

A

both basophils and eosinophils

18
Q

where are monocytes

A

they circulate in blood

19
Q

what are macrophages and dendritic cells

A

monocytes

20
Q

macrophages do what

A

they do phagocytose and present antigens on surface of cell to T cells (antigen presenting cell)

21
Q

APC means what

A

Antigen presentin gcell

22
Q

Dentritc cells do what

A

sleep and lymph nodes and present antigens on cell surface to Tcells (Antigen presenting cell)

23
Q

explain the 4 steps of phagocytosis

A
  1. bacteria binds to phagocytic cell and binding is aided by antibody or complement
  2. phagocytes pseudopods extend and engulf the organism
  3. invagination of phagocytes membrane traps the organism within a phagosome
  4. a lysosome fuses and deposits enzymes into the phagosome and then enzymes cleave macromolecules and generate reactive oxygen which DESTROYS the organism
24
Q

what happens to WBC count during and infection or allergy

A

highly raised

25
Q

When there is a higher WBC count in specific cell types what does in indicate

A

can indicate type of pathogens

26
Q

what does high neutrophils suggest

A

a bacterial infection

27
Q

what does high eosinophils suggest

A

parasites

28
Q

inflammation def

A

a localized condition where body part becomes red swollen or hot and is often painful

29
Q

vasudilation def

A

high blood flow

30
Q

what arrives to infected tissue during inflammation

A

neutrophils and macrophages

31
Q

cytokine production. the chemical signals do what

A

recurit immune cells to infection site

32
Q

if an infection occurs, what 3 steps occur to heal ti

A

macrophages engulf pathogens and release cytokines, then vasoactive factors and cytokines help deliver additional phagocytes, and then some cytokines initiate healing as pathogens are destroyed.
