Innate immunity 2 Flashcards
(28 cards)
How many serum proteins are there in complements
nine serum proteins
produces proinflammatory factors that are
chemotactic for phagocytic cells
SerComComp=chemotactic
SERUM COMPLEMENT COMPONENTS
Complement fragments coat bacteria to create____ and promote ______
opsonin and promote phagocytosis
antigen–antibody complexes in an adaptive immune
response
( classical pathway)
By interaction with molecules (e.g., zymozan) on microbial surfaces
Alt character si zymosan/ microbial surfaces
alternative complement activation pathway
complement activation pathway where proteins bind to sugars
(mannose-binding
lectin (MBL) pathway
proteins that bind to sugars
Lectin
produced by the liver during inflammation
cute liver during inflammation
ACUTE PHASE PROTEINS
Collectins
family of lectins
multi-meric proteins with a “flower bouquet” or an “Xlike” structure
MBL
where in the microbe does MBL react with
terminal MF molecules
terminal mannose/fructose molecules
Collectins include
MBLB MBL-most studied bovine conglutinin Lung surfactants A and D Bovine collectin 43
MBL circulates in a complex with ____ and ____
MBL-associated serine protease 1(MASP1)
MBL-associated serine protease 2(MASP2)
MBL or MASP activates which complements
dynamite tea activated
C2 and C4 complements
MBL or MASP creates
c3 convertase thru activation of c2 and c4
Oligomers of triple-helical molecules
Collectin
Ligo 3h
complement fragment that binds to bacterial PAMPs and acts as an opsonin
C3b
C3B acts as an opsonin
release of histamine and pharmacologic mediators from mast cells and basophiles
MAst c3lls & BA5ophils
C3a and C5a
chemoattractants for phagocytic cells
attractants
ANAPHYlatoxins
increases capillary permeability and fluid leaks into tissue
&
reduces fluid levels in the vessels and precipitates bacteria, rendering them more susceptible to phagocytosis
capperleaks
HIStamine
create a membrane attack complex that inserts a “tube-like”
structure through the bacterial membrane
C5b, C6 and C7-9
bind lipoteichoic acids, endotoxins from Gr (-)bacteria, and peptidoglycans from Gr(+) bacteria
Scavenger receptors
• mannose or fructose in the terminal sugars of bacterial glycoproteins
Carbohydrate receptors
present on lymphocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells play a more
important role in innate immunity.
present in LMD important role
Toll-like receptors (TLRs)
