17
Q

carried out by WBCs

18
Q

Enumerate the process of phagocytosis

A
  1. chemotaxis
  2. adherence
  3. engulfment
  4. phagosome formation
  5. digestion, destruction, elimination
19
Q

cells are guided to the site of injury by chemoattractant substances

20
Q

change in direction of movement of motile cell in response to a concentration gradient of a specific chemical (chemotaxin)

A

chemotactic response

21
Q

sequence of adhesion and activation events that ends with cells exerting their effects on the inflamed site

A

Leukocyte adhesion cascade

22
Q

cell adhesion molecule (CAM)

23
Q

lines surfaces of activated endothelial cells

allows WBC to adhere

24
Q

enhanced engulfment

25
engulfment is enhanced by:
1. acetylcholine 2. complement 3. plasma proteins
26
triggered by tissue damage due to infection, heat, wound, etc.
inflammation
27
5 cardinal signs of inflammation
1. rubor 2. dolor 3. calor 4. tumor 5. functio laesa
28
1. rubor: 2. dolor: 3. calor: 4. tumor: 5. functio laesa:
1. rubor: redness 2. dolor: pain 3. calor: heat 4. tumor: swelling 5. functio laesa: function loss
29
Inflammation stages
1. Vasodilation 2. Phagocyte migration and margination 3. Tissue repair
30
large granular lymphocytes (LGL) | antibody-dependent cytotoxic cell (ADCC)
Natural killer cells
31
formation of pores (killing method)
perforins
32
release of H2O2 from WBCs and lysosome produce myeloperoxidase
Oxidative burst
33
bacteria are engulfed through?
active membrane invagination
34
high affinity for HDL | Cholesterol removal to clean up of macrophages in the site of inflammation
Serum amyloid A
35
inhibits elastase formation
Alpha 1 antitrypsin
36
binds to free Hb to protect from oxidative damage
Haptoglobin
37
NK cell exposed to IL-2 snd IFN gamma
Lymphokine activated cell (LAK)
38
Type of Granules | contains granules such as caspases
Tertiary granules
39
``` Types of Granules contains enzymes (lysozyme and myeloperoxidase) ```
Primary granules
40
Types of Granules | contains substances such as lactoferrin
Secondary granules
