POST LAB EXP 4 and 5 Flashcards
(106 cards)
adherence
PHYSICAL CONTACT
– squeezing of blood vessel walls; non-directional
Diapedesis
– directional
Chemotaxis
– associated with groups of pathogens; Innate immune system
Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPS)
- recognize and adhere to pathogens
Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRS)
blood and lymph
Secreted PRRs
circulating that binds to PAMPs
Secreted PRRs
triggers the complement cascade leading to opsonization
Secreted PRRs
Binds to pathogen leading to release of effector molecules (cytokines)
Phagocytosis Receptors
recognize PAMPs with mannose
Phagocytosis Receptors
set of transmembrane receptors
Toll-like Receptors
Toll-like Receptors found in:
MACs, DCs, epithelial cells
fruitfly Drosophilia: antifungal
Toll-like Receptors
Toll-like Receptors inc conc:
monocytes, MACs, neutrophils
ingestion
FORMATION OF PHAGOSOME
phagosome + lysosome = PHAGOLYSOSOME
FUSION OF PHAGOLYSOS OME
