25
(ABO type by "one-sided") | what is antigene and where is it located?
it is located on the surface of the RBC, it is the "ID" of the blood type. if i have antigene A i have blood type A.
26
(ABO type by "one-sided") | what is antibody and where is it located?
Immunoglobulin (Ig) used in the immune system to help protect cell and so on they are circulated in the plasma- so if i have blood type A it will have antibodies for B.
27
(ABO type by "one-sided") | what type of Immunoglobulin (Ig) are attacking the RBC antigene?
IgM (pentamere)
28
(ABO type by "one-sided") | the blood drop which was labeled AntiA got agglutanated- what type is this blood and how do we know that?
the blood is type A. | person with blood type A wont have in his plasma antibodies for A- BCS IF HE DID IT WILL ATTACK THE RBC
29
(Rh test) | what type of Ig is the antibody for Rh?
anti D= IgG (monomere/dimere)
30
(Rh test) | what will we observe in case of Rh- person?
no agglutanation bcs this person doesnt have Rh antigene on its RBC surface so there is nothing to "attack"
31
(transport rate on RBC) | we need two control. positive and negative. describe each one
negative - used as blank. (hypotonic solutiol kills RBC!) 100 microL blood with 3mL distilled water positive- used as 100% absorbance (isotonic solution!) 100 microL blood with 3mL isotonic solution
32
(transport rate on RBC) | what does the transport rate deoends on? (2)
1. permeability of the membrane for the specofoc substance | 2. electrochemical gradient
33
(transport rate on RBC) | can urea pass the RBC memb?
yes, with UT-B (urea transporter)
34
(transport rate on RBC) | how do glucose pass the RBC memb?
GLUT1 <3
35
(transport rate on RBC) | how do water enter the RBC?
aquaporin (3 types): aq1- constitutively in the memb aq2- collecting tubule, hormonally regulated by Vasopresin aq3- constitutively in the memb (can also pass glycerol) **water can also pass (8%) through urea transporter
36
(transport rate on RBC) | how can ammonium ions enter the cell?
when they convert to ammonia= NH3+H the proton goes to the HCO3- buffer and ammonia enters the cell freely inside cell becomes NH4 again (intracellular becomes alkaline)
37
(transport rate on RBC) | what is the reason we will have a sudden drop in the absorbance upon adding NaHCO3?
bcs we have the HCO3/Cl exchanger that enhace that enhances the accumulation of Cl and NH4 inside the RBC
38
(transport rate on RBC) | first step: how much of bllod? how much of solution we need?
100 microL blood 3mL phys seline and for all the rest same amount
39
(transport rate on RBC) | what will happen when we put the blood with urea?
urea enters the RBC through UT-B -> cell will swell (osmotically active) we have a lower optical density bcs of the cells burst!
40
(transport rate on RBC) | what will happen when we put the blood with glucose?
glucose enter the RBC slower then urea theough the GLUT1
41
(transport rate on RBC) | what will happen when we put the blood with NH4Cl?
NH4Cl seperates to NH4+ and Cl NH4 seperates to NH3 and H NH3 enters the cell freely and Cl enters the cell throgh HCO3/Cl exchanger -> acoumulation of NH4Cl inside the cell slowly
42
(transport rate on RBC) what will happen when we put the blood with NH4Cl? and after 1 min add the NaHCO3
enhances the HCO3/Cl exchanger work so the cells swell and burst more rapidly CO2 diffuses freely when we add NaHCO3
43
(ABO type by "two-sided") | which blood should we use?
unknown tube with serum seperated from the RBC (we can see the seperation) also we have 3 known RBC (A,B,O)
44
(ABO type by "two-sided") | what should we put on the antibody plate?
below anti A we put- drop of antibody A + drop of 10% RBC suspension **same for B and AB** in the 4th place we put- drop of 10% RBC suspension + the unknown serum
45
(ABO type by "two-sided") | how do you start the experiment?
COAT! GLOVES! pour the unknown serum to a different tube mix the remaining serum+RBC take 3 drops from it with 1mL of seline (this is our 10% RBC suspension)
46
(ABO type by "two-sided") | descibe the blood type plate-
we have A, B, O letters beneath the letter A we put- A known RBC (it has antigene A on its surface!!!) we put also the unknown serum **repeat for B, O**

44-49 mEq/L | sum of HCO3- and Albumin anions
55
(acid base parameters) | what is the normal base axis?
+/- 2.5 mEq/L | how much should we add to the paitent if he has alkalosis or acidosis
56
(acid base parameters) | how do you know if its a respiratory/metabolic alkalosis/metabolic ???
ROME Respiratory Opposite- the PCO2 will move opposite to the pH!! Metabolic Equal - the PCO2 stays the same. **pH WILL TWLL YOU IF ITS ALKALOSIS/ACIDOSIS
57
(acid base parameters) | what is the difference in measuring standart and aqtual HCO3- from the graph?
standart HCO3- = where the line intersect with HCO3- line aqtual HCO3- = we take the actual PCO2 point and draw a line in 45 defrees to the marked lines that are on the HCO3 line

74
(Smooth muscle activity) | What are the two types of intestinal smooth muscke contraction?
``` Phasic Contraction (Peristalsis) - Originated from Cajal's pacemaker cells. Tonic Contraction (Basal) - Induced by stretch ```
75
(Smooth muscle activity) | What parameters are measured and how?
We measure frequency and amplitude of SMCs contractions. Mechanoelectric transducer is attached to the smooth muscle wall.
76
(Smooth muscle activity) | What solution the intestine is located in?
Tyrode - Isosmotic solution. | For general extracellular fluid in 38 degrees.
77
(Smooth muscle activity) | What is added to the solution?
Oxygen pump and Glucose
78
(Smooth muscle activity) | What is the normal contraction frequency?
6 - 9 per Min
79
(Smooth muscle activity) What is the first task? What do we learn from it?
Hypoxia: Lowers the frequency and amplitude of contractions. Reversible as long as there is no tissue damage
80
(Smooth muscle activity) What is the 2nd task? What do we learn from it?
Acetyl-Choline: (ascending conc.) M3 receptors are activated - Gq activates the SMC to have higher Ca and Increase contractillity tone. Amplitude is higher (frequency same).
81
(Smooth muscle activity) What is the 3rd task? What do we learn from it?
Atropine: M3 receptors are blocked- inhibits Ach activation causing Ca signal to be unchanged from normal. Amplitude is the same. same same but different.
82
(Smooth muscle activity) What is the 4th task? What do we learn from it?
``` Ach- Esterase: Added stigmazan (Neostigmin isoform) - inihibits Ach-Esterase - causing Ach to stay longer in the Post-synaptic position. Higher Contractillity. ```
83
(Smooth muscle activity) What is the 5th task? What do we learn from it?
cAMP: PKA is activated - Phosphorylates and Inactivates MLCK (Myosin light chain Kinase). MLC is not activated - No contraction - Amplitude goes down.
84
(Fish Heart) | What is the special features of the fishs heart?
1) One circulation cycle. | 2) Doesnt contain coranary vessels (Straub heart - Nutrients directly from enviroment).
85
(Fish Heart) | What is the special solution do we put this shitty fish in?
Ringer Lactate solution. | It provides the heart with ATP.
86
(Fish Heart) | What is the surgical intervention done in order to help us measure the parameters from this shity fish?
It is a decapitated Fish. | So it has no PARA/SYM connections to periphery.
87
(Fish Heart) | How do we measure contraction?
The fish heart is hanged by a thread and each contractio pulls the thread and the mechanotransducer picks up the pull.
88
(Fish Heart) | Observations from the 1st experiment?
Temprature - increase will cause higher contraction frequency and force (and vice versa).
89
(Fish Heart) | Observations from the 2nd experiment?
Extrasystole and compensatory pause - When introduced with electrical stimulus another systole period is shown. (except from when it is in refractory period).
90
(Fish Heart) | Observations from the 3rd experiment?
Stannuis Ligatures - 1) Seperation of Sinus venosus and atria of the heart, similar to AV Block. Lower HR. 2) Seperation of Atria of the heart and Ventricles, pacemaking is from Ventricles - Even Lower HR.
