Q

Neutrophils

A

Most numerous WBC
Nucleii has many lobes / segments (trademark)
More lobes = older
function: fights bacteria
go out of the blood vessels, exits through capillaries

Chemotaxis

A

Process of neutrophils going to the area of infection

16
Q

Granules (in neutrophils)

A

responsible for killing the bacteria the neutrophils ingest

17
Q

Pus

A

Signifies dead neutrophils

18
Q

Eosinophils

A

trademark: pink-staining granules, bilobe structure of nucleus
associated with parasitism and allergy
found in GI tract, respiratory tract, spleen
manifestation: bloated stomach, malnourished (parasites)

19
Q

Basophils

A

structure: bilobe
trademark: darker granules than epsinophils
least # of WBC in smears
Turns red or pink in blue pigments

20
Q

Histamin (basophils)

A

Notorious in allergic reactions

21
Q

Anaphylactic shock

A

blood vessels dilated, etc.

22
Q

Lymphocytes

A

Scant cytoplasm, with nucleus
classified as T cells and B cells
the only WBC that returns to blood

23
Q

T cells

A

made in the bone marrow, but goes to the thymus

types: helper T cell, suppressor T cell, cytotoxic T cell (killer T cell)

24
Q

B cells

A

like T cells, comes from the bone marrow.
however it goes from there to the blood
produces immunoglobulin

25
Q

Monocytes

A

trademark: notched nucleus (mukhang pwet)
largest WBC
function: digest cellular debris, processes antigens for the lymphocytes

26
Q

Plasma

A

plasma proteins
plasma lipoproteins

function: colloidal pressure. balance between extracellular fluid and intravascular volume

27
Q

Plasma protein

A

albumin
fibrinogen
globulin
complement

28
Q

complement, globulins

A

immunologic response

29
Q

fibrinogen

A

clotting

30
Q

serum
