Q

events of inflammation

A

released chemicals
recruitment of leukocytes
delivery of plasma proteins

24
Q

margination

A

adherence of leukocytes to endothelial CAMs

25
diapedesis
leukocytes squeeze out blood vessels
26
chemotaxis
leukocytes are attracted by chemical released from damaged cells
27
during the first phase of inflammation, what happen?
vasodilation, increased capillary permeability, increased display of CAMs
28
what kind of protein are delivered in the 3 phase of inflammation?
clotting proteins kinin: stimulates pain receptors (bradykinin)
29
effects of inflammation
exudate moves from blood to injured cell vasodilation increased capillary permeability loss of plasma proteins extra fluid wash the area
30
cardiac signs of inflammation
redness heat swelling pain loss of function
31
fever or _____ is the result from release of _____
pyrexia pyrogens
32
events of onset
pyrogens target hypothalamus hypothalamus releases prostaglandin E2 hypothalamus raises temperature
33
adaptive immunity involves specific
antigen
34
cell-mediated immunity involves
T-lymphocytes
35
humoral immunity involves
B-lymphocytes plasma cells antibodies
36
antigen
substance that binds to T-lymphocyte or antibody
37
examples of antigen
protein capsid of viruses call wall of bacteria or fungi bacterial toxins tumor antigens abnormal proteins
38
autoimmune disorders
system reacts to self-antigen as if foreign
39
antigen determinat
epitope specific site of an antigen that the system recognize
40
haptens
too small don't function alone
41
TRC is antigen receptor of
T-lymphocytes
42
BCR is antigen receptor of
B-lymphocytes
43
B-lymphocytes make ______ contact with antigen
direct
44
T-lymphocytes have ______ _______ by another cell
antigen presented
45
subtypes of T-lymphocytes
Helper T-lymphocytes: CD4 Cytotoxic T-lymphocytes: CD8
46
MHC I is found on all
nucleated cells
47
MHC II is found on
APCs
48
life events of lymphocytes
formation of lymphocytes activation of lymphocytes effector response
49
formation of lymphocytes occurs in
red bone marrow thymus
50
activation of lymphocytes occurs in
secondary lymphatic structures
51
in effector response phase, T-lymphocytes migrate to
site of infection
52
3 phases of thymic selection
postive selection negative selection differentiation
53
what percentage of T-lymphocytes pass the 3 phases of thymic selection?
2%
54
positive selection
cortex of thymus ability to bind MHC molecules
55
negative selection
medulla of thymus ability to NOT bind self-antigens (self tolerance)
56
regulatory T-lymphocytes (tregs)
tolerance outside primary lymphatic structures (peripheral tolerance)
57
events of fever
onset stadium defervescence
