Cross linking of IgE by antigen

14
Q

A

Vasodilation of arterioles, increased vascular permeabity

15
Q

What is the delayed response of mast cells?

A

Release of leukotrienes to allow continuation of inflammatory responser

16
Q

Proinflammatory serum proteins which circulate as inactive precursors

A

Complement

17
Q

Three mechanisms of complement activation

A

Classical pathway - C1 binds to IgG or IgM bound to antigen
Alternative pathway - Microbial products directly activate
Mannose-binding lectin pathway - MBL binds mannose on microorganisms and activates complement

18
Q

Pathway to formation of membrane attack complex from complement activation

A

C3 convertase generated converts C3 to C3a and C3b
C3b helps produce C5 convertase to convert C5 to C5a and C5b
C5b produces C6-C9 which is part of membrane attack complex

19
Q

Complement which is chemotactic for neutrophils

A

C5a

20
Q

Complement which trigger mast cell degranulation

A

C3a and C5a

21
Q

Complement which is an opsonin for phagocytosis

A

C3b

22
Q

Inactive proinflammatory protein produced in liver which is activated upon exposure to subendothelial or tissue collagen

A

Hageman factor

23
Q

Hageman factor plays an important role in which two disease entities

A

DIC

Gram negative sepsis

24
Q

Hageman factor activates which three system

A

Coagulation and fibrinolytic systems
Complement system
Kinin system

25
Q

Bradykinin mediates what

A

Vasodilation, increased vascular permeability, pain

26
Q

Mechanisms of fever generation

A

Macrophage release IL1 and TNF
Perivascular cells of hypothalamus have increased COX activity
PGE2 increases which raises temp set point

27
Q

Match the tcell receptor complex for t cells
CD4 and CD8
MHC class I and II

A
CD4 - MHC class II
CD8 - MHC class I
28
Q

Function of MHC

A

Binds to antigen and Presents antigen to Tcell

29
Q

Mechanism for CD4 tcell activation

A

Extracellular antigen is phagocytosed on APC and is presented on MHC class II

B7 (second signal) on APC binds CD 28 on CD 4 T cell as activation signa

30
Q

Examples of antigen presenting cells

A

Macrophage, dendritic cell

31
Q

Mechanism of activated CD4 helper t cell

A

Secrete cytokines which help B cells or CD 8

32
Q

Cytokines secrete by TH1 and fx

A

IL-2 - activates CD8 T cell

IFN gamma - activates macrophage

33
Q

Cytokines secreted by TH2 and fx

A
IL-4 class switching to IgG and IgE
IL-5 eosinophil chemotaxis and activation, maturation of B cells to plasma cell, class switching to IgA
IL-10 inhibits Th1 phenotype
34
Q

Mechanism of cell killing of CD8

A

Secrete perforins and granzyme to induce apoptosis

Expression of FasL, binds Fas on target cell to activate apoptosis

35
Q

Naive B cells express which Immunoglobulin

A

IgM and IgD

36
Q

Mechanism of B cell activation

A

Antigen binding by surface IgM or IgD, activating B cell to secrete that immunoglobulin

B cell present antigen to CD4 via MHC II and CD40 receptor on B cell binds to CD40L on helper Tcell, activating it to secrete IL4 and IL5 promoting ig switch and maturation to plasma cell

37
Q

Morphology of granuloma

A

Epitheloid histiocytes (macrophage with abundant pink cytoplasm) - key feature of granuloma

Surrounded by giant cell and lymphocytes

38
Q

Caseating vs noncaseating granuloma

A

Caseating has central necrosis

39
Q

Mechanism of granuloma formation

A

Macrophage present antigen to CD4 via MHC II
Macrophage secrete IL 12
CD4 differentiates to Th1 subtype, which secretes IFN gamma and converts the macrophage to epitheloid histiocyte and giant cell

40
Q

Marker for hematopoeitic stem cells (CD?)

A

CD34+

41
Q

Types of tissues based on repair and give example

Secondary - edges not approximate, granulation tissue fills defect, scar formation and wound contraction

48
Q

Function of Vitamin C in wound healing

A

Procollagen needs to crosslink by hydroxylation

Gly-Pro/Lys-Hydroxypro/lys

Vitamin C hydroxylates pro and lys, and the hydroxylated ends allow crosslinking of more procollagen molecules to become mature collagen
