How is chronic rejection in the lung transplant different from other locations (i.e. kidney?
Lung transplant rejection primarily affects the small bronchioles via inflammation and obstruction/destruction causing BRONCHIOLITIS OBLITERANS. Renal rejection primarily involves the renal vasculature.
IL-4 = Ig__
IgE
IL-1 is produced by what cell to activate Th0 lymphocytes?
the same cell type also produces IL-12 to stimulate development of Th1
macrophages
IL-2 is secreted by Th__ cells to stimulate produciton of CD4, CD8 and B cells.
Th1
Th1 produces IL-__ to promote bone marrow stem cell differentiation
Th2 produces IL-__ to activate eosinophils and promotes IgA syntehsis
IL-3
IL-__ is produced by Th2 cells to inhibit IFN-gamma, leading to decreased Th1

Naloxone is a mu-antagonist.

okazaki fragments which are short stretches of newly synthesized DNA separated by RNA primers.
A patient is started on infliximab and presents a few days later with joint pain and pruritic skin rash. Biopsy shows fibrinoid necrosis and neutrophil infiltration of his small blood vessels. What is this?

Atropine reverses ____ poisoning. but what side effect of the posioning is still at risk?
Reverses organophosphate (DUMBBELLS) poisoning.
Still at risk of muscle paralysis becuase atropine only effects mACHR. Need to administer pralidoxime to resotre AChEsterase to decrease ACh to both muscarinic AND nicotinic.
