immunity Flashcards
invovled with humoral immunity
cells and infection
B-cell
Neutrophils
Bacterial infections
protect the tissues
cell mediated immunity
T-cells
macrophages
nonbacterial infections
T-cell
3rd pharyngeal pouch missing
hypocalcemia
Chro 22
DiGeorge syndrome
T-cell
candida infection on skin and mucous membranes
T-cell can’t fight candida
Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis
chronic fatigue syndrome
Steroids
anti-inflammatory and physiologic actions
steroid best for crossing membrane
Dexamethasone
Steriod good for cortisol replacement
hydrocortisone
Steriod good for fluid replacement
Fludrocortisone
which drug prolong longevity of transplanted organs
ihibits calcineurin
cyclosporine
gingival hyperplasia, hirsutism, renal failure
decrease T-cell activation
by decreasing IL-2 transcription
Tacrolimus
inhibit mTOR kinase
decrease response to IL-2
Sirolimus( rapamycin)
tyrosine kinase inhibitor
2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor
sirolimus
imatinib
Cells involve in a TRAP pos leukemia
75% B cell
25% T-cell
hairy
T-cells characterise by indented cell membrane
mycosis Fungoides
Sezary Syndrome
lymphoma
enzyme involve with SCID
affects all rapidly dividing cell
Adenosin deaminase
X-linked recessive
eczema, Normal Ig-A/E levels
mc in Boys(X-linked R)
Thrombocytopenia
wiskott-Aldridge syndrome
needed for class switching
IL-4 defect
CD-40 ligand defect
Tyrosine kinase defect
Normal B-cell count defective function
early onset
defective cell signaling
x-linked recessive
Burton’s Agammaglobulinemia
Agamma globulinenia
like Bruton’s
Lacking B-cells function with normal count
late onset
CVID
cellular components of Leukemias
98% B cells
2% T-cells in periphery
1 plasma cell cancer
plasmacytoma
multiple plasma cell cancer
multiple osteolytic lesion
Multiple myeloma
finding of MM
Rouleaux formation
hi Ca
Ig-G M-Spike
Kappa light chains(Bence jones proteinuria
Heavy chain disease
Ig-A MM of bowel wall
Ig-A plasma cell visible
Malabsorption
