Q

2nd line defense nonsoecific

A

Phagocytosis

Inflammation fever- histamine released causes redness, heat, swelling, pain. Causes vasodilation

Pyrexia aka fever
Protective proteins- interferon- works against viruses
Complement proteins- circukates inactive .pokes holes in bacteria
Nk cells - works against cancer and microves

Q

Circukatee inactively there just in case we need it . Pokes hole in bacteria

A

Complement bacteria

18
Q

Whennus lymohadema most commonly seen

A

Node discection. Radiationx removal lymohatif system caused by tx of cancer

19
Q

Cells work against cancer and mucrobes

A

Natural born killer cells

20
Q

Lymphatic tissue located in mucosa partially encapsulated lymph nodes in throat area

21
Q

Appendix contains what?

A

Lymohatic nodules

22
Q

Largest lymohatic organ in body

23
Q

What dies soleen fikter

A

Blood not lymph fluid

24
Q

Requires activation by specific antigen has memory for future attacks

  1. antibody mediated
  2. Cell mediated
A

Specific aka adaptive immunity

25
Immunity based 9n activitybof b lymphocytes
Antibody mediated
26
4 types T cells
1. Killer cells cytoxic cells 2. Helper t cells 3. Supressor t cells(once battle over) 4. Memory t cell (remembers antigen for future attacks)
27
What percentage are t cells
70-80 %
28
This immune cell response doesnt involve antibodies. Involves activation of phagocytes antigrn soecific cytotoxix t lymphocytes
Cell mediated
29
Immunoglobulins aka name
Anti bodies
30
Why are immunoglobukine aka antibodies made
In response to something specific
31
What does antibody mediated immunity involve
``` Protects via antibodies Protects via extra cellular pathogens B cells b lymphocytes Basis of artificial immunity The antibody remains circukating in system. B cells make 2 copies ```
32
What does cell mediated protect against
Protects cells by directing against intercellukar pathogens aka macrophages Some cancers Tissue rejection Antigen presentation- body sees something not native to me so it activates t cells
33
What are protective proteins called
Interferons
34
What does antibody mediated immunity circulate
Produces circukating antibodies in response to presence of foreign substance and recognize substance upon renewed exposure
35
What does white pulp do
Cleans blood the same as lymph nodes clean lymph fluid. Lymphatic tissue and lumphocytes
36
Info 9n red pulp
Venus sinuses filled w blood Blood cleansed as flows through Microorganisms destroyed by leaukocytes Stores blood esoecialoy platelets
37
``` Lymphatic organ that is where t cells matures In mediastinum Decreases in size and function Home of lymphocytes Some inactive and some active Active in immune response Secretes hormones ```
Thymus gland
38
Formation of antibodies to substances usually not recognized as foreign ex. Peanut butter
Allergic reactions
39
2 types allergic reactions
Delayed onse- allergy takes abiut 48 hrs to develop | Immediate reactions-need epipen. Pollen drugs
40
Organ transplant issues?
Tissue or organ rejection
