What are the main inflammatory cytokines?
IL-1, IL-6, TNFa
What is not an immune response to food?
-IgA and TGFB
-IFNy and IgG
-IL-4, Il-5, IL-13, IgE
-IFNy and IgA
IFNy and IgA
Which gender is more likely to suffer with a viral infection; M, F, both, neither?
M
A 56 yo F was infected with SAR-CoV2 at her work. She goes home and wants to sleep. Which cytokine mediates this effect?
IL-1
Your pt was exposed to SARS-CoV2 for the first time on a plane three days ago. Which cells do you expect to be activated now, at 72 hours?
NK cells, macrophages, T cells
Which of the following cell types is already in the tissue when a pathogen invades?
-Neutrophils
-Macrophages
-B cells
-T cells
Macrophages
How do you start your production of inflammatory cytokines?
An inflammatory triggers ikappaB to let go of NFkappaB and NFkappaB translates to the nucleus
Which proteins are involved in resolving infection?
Protectins, maresins, resolvins
Which cytokine is associated with hostile and aggressive behavior?
TNFa
Which T cell is associated with candida infection?
Th17
A microbe binds to a TLR on a macrophage. If this is going to trigger an autoimmune response, what must be present on the macrophage to activate an autoreactive T cell?
CD86
Which cytokines are made in response to Th2?
IL-4, IL-5,IL-13
In a Th1 response, IFN gamma triggers B cells specific to the antigen to produce which type of immunoglobulin?
IgG
You have a pt with mononucleosis, which is caused by Epstein Barr Virus, and causes B cells to overgrow. Which protein would you expect to find elevated in the blood?
Antibodies
SARS-CoV2 virus is able to infect multiple tissues, why?
ACE2 receptors that the virus uses for entry are in multiple tissues

TGFbeta
What response type occurs with asthma? What cytokines are present?
Th2

What response type occurs with mold? What cytokines are present?
Th17
IL-17
