.2 Flashcards
digeorge syndrome
will not have items from 3rd and 4th pouch
What deficiency’s would be found in digeorge syndrome
T cell deficiency (thyroid)
hypocalcemia (parathyroid)
abnormalities of heart, great vessels and face
SCID are effected by
defected humoral and cell mediated immunology
Etologies of SCID
defects cytokine receptor adenosine deaminase deficenty MHC class 2 deficency
Adenosine deaminase deficiency
build up of adenosine and oxydenosine can cause a build up in neutrophils causing immunodeficiency
CD4+ Tcells
help b cells mature and help CD8 fight infections
Cytokine receptors deficiency can cause
immunodeficeny
MHC class 2 are able to activate
CD+4 causeing a deficency in t and b cells
Patients with SCID
don’t have t cells and will get fungal and viral infections
They also don’t have b cells and will get protezoal and bacterial infection
also have problems with live vaccines and are worse than aids patients
SCID treatment include
sterile isolation and stem cell transplant
Why are they given stem cell transplants
the stem cell transplant can differentiate into b and t cells.
X linked agammaglobulinemia
Complete lack of immunoglobulin
disordered b cell mutation problem hence not allowing them to mature into plasma cells
Tyrosine kinase
To help b cells mature into plasma cells
the lack of tyrosine kinase will cause
bacterial, enterovirus and giardia infections.
after 6 months of life. because of the lack of IgG IgA, IgA in that order. No live vaccines given
the x linked aggamagobulinemeia is due to a mutation in what
Bruton tyrosine kinase
Common variable Immune disease
Low immunoglobulin due to B-cell or helper T-cell defects
What are the common infections with CVID
autoimmune disease and lymphoma in late adulthood.
when younger there will be bacterial infections, enterovirus, and giardia.
IgA deficiency
Increase mucosal viral infections
celiac disease
cause by IgA deficeincy
Hyper IgM syndrome is cause by a mutation in the
CD40 2nd way of being activated not working so 2nd pathway for IGA and IgG and IgE, prevents class switching.
2 ways b cells are activated
- antigen binds IgM making a IgM secreting plasma cell
- B cell can internalize the antigen and present MAclass 2 and a CD 40 stimulus is expressed on the b cell for T cell and will activate CD4 and produce IL4 and IL 5 and will go back to the b cell and allow it to mature and class switch to produce IGA IgG IgE
IgA and IgG and IgE are created from the b cell class switching cause by IL4 and IL5 what will not be activated with someone with Hyper IgM syndrome
The CD40 will not be expressed for the t cell so IL4 and IL 5 will not be produced preventing the b cell from class switching. meaning there will be high IgM but low IgA IgG IgE
what are common problems with Hyper IgM syndrome
mucosal infections
puss forming recurrent infection
Wiskott Aldrich Syndrome
a triad of
Thrombocytopenia
Excema
recurrent infection
wiskott aldrich syndrom is caused by a mutation in the
wiskot aldrich syndrome X LINKED!!!
compliment deficiency
C5-‘C9 deficiency can cause a risk for Neisseria infection
if there is a deficiency of C1 inhibitor can cause
over activation of c1 causing over activation of complement
causes include vasodilation increased vascular permeability. Periorbital edema
Hereditary angio edema is and example of
compliment deficiency with a periorbital edema caused by over activation of complement because of a c1 inhibitor deficiency
autoimmune desease, we constantly creating lymphocytes buy they are
usually apoptotic, or become anergic (go to sleep) generally effect woman more than men at child bearing age.
Etiology of autoimmune disorders
Environmental trigger in a genetically susceptible individuals, increased incidence in twins and associated with certain HLA subtypes
