28

56
Xanthione oxidase
inhibited by allopurinol and febuxosat that covers Xanthine into uric acid.
57
Inflammation induced Gout
Endogenous MUS crystals trigger TLR2/4 of inflammatory response. These are on monocytes, macrophages, synovial cells and activate NFkB to pour out inflammaotry cytokiesn and attract PMNs. 2) MSU crystals are internalized to activate NLRP3 inflammation via activation of Caspase 1 to results in IL-1 cleavage and release.
58
Self limiting nature of Gout
Cellular response due to protein coatings: gig coating promotes phagocytosis by PMNs. As time goes on you switch to ApoB coating that inhibits phagocytosis and the immune response. 2) phagocytosis decreases crystal concentrations 3) heat of inflammation, increases solubility 4) ACTH secretion supresses inflammation 5) IL1 and TNF anti antibodies are produced to modulate the inflammation
59

why can we transplant blood easier than organs
RBCs do not have MHC and antigens they carry are less polymorphic
260
Blood group antigens
glycolipids on surface of all body cells - including RBCs; lipid backbone spans plasma membrane and terminal sugars confer antigenic specificity.
261
Secretor phenotype
blood type can be determined by sweat and cigarette buts.

284
Pathogenesis of HIV
single exposure —> high blood virus at 6 weeks —> loss of CD4 in gut mucosa and increased gut permeability. HIV spreads systemically. HIV peaks at 9 weeks and virus level falls for about 9.5 year.
285
DC sign
vHIV adherence to lectin on dendritic cells and uses these cells to get to lymph nodes where HIV binds to p120 on Th cells.
286
gp120
binding site of HIV in lymph nodes, binding triggers conformational change to allow binding to corrector CCR5; this binding changes conformation of GP41 glycoprotein to expose hydrophobic region and melt away T-cell membrane - cell and viral fusion where dsDNA issued and inserted via integrase into random breaks in DNA.
287
HIV genome
9 genes - gag, pol, env (all retroviruses have), and 6 regulate latency and virulence.
288

289
Clearance in early HIV
entire viral population is replaced daily and CD4 cells every 3 days.
290
what is unique about HIV spread
not extracellular - gp120/gp41 is made early and virus is inserted into plasma mebrane. This allow fusion of infected cell to nearby uninfected CD4. Thus antibody is useless
291

301
Vaccine problems with HIV
difficult betcuase we need a vaccine to preferentially stimulate Th1 and CTL - not antibody response. Key epitope of HIV is concealed in p120 and p41 and is invisible to B cells. but 20% HIV positiv apple make a broadly neutralizing antibody that blocks infection by almost all HIV strains and mutant forms. (but rare)
302
Immune survelliance
T-cells are constantly monitoring surface of cells in body to detect abnormal cells before they become mutant.
303
Evidnece of immune survelliance
