7.1 BODY DEFENSE NON SPECIFIC Flashcards
1
Q
innate/non specific defense
A
protect the person against all microorganism
- first line defense
- skin
- mucous membrane
- second line defense
- phagocytes
- antimicrobial proteins
- natural killer cells
- inflammation
- fever
2
Q
acquired/specific defense
(3rd line)
A
directed against identifiable infectious agent
- B n T cells
- antibodies
3
Q
1st line defense
A
- mechanical n chemical protection
4
Q
2nd line defense
A
- attack on any microbes that have survived the 1st line defense
5
Q
phagocytes
A
- phagocytosis
- main type of phagocytes
- neutrophils
- macrophages
- ad infection, leucocytes ( WBC) increased
6
Q
type of phagocytes
A
- macrophage
- eosinophils
- neutrophils
- basophils
- mast cell
- monocytes
7
Q
macrophage
A
- mature from monocytes
- long lived
- wondering macrophages
~ migrate to the tissue in search n destroy microbes n cellular debris - fixed macrophages
~ permanent resident of specific organ in the body
- wondering macrophages
8
Q
neutrophils
A
- phagocytize bacteria
- short lived
9
Q
eosinophils
A
- secrete enzymes to kill parasitic worms
10
Q
basophils
A
- contain granules of toxic chemical
- involves in allergic response
11
Q
mast cell
A
- contain variety of inflammatory chemicals including HISTAMINE N SEROTONIN.
- cause vasodilation of blood vessel near wound
12
Q
5 steps in phagocytosis
A
- chemotaxis
* recognize the bacteria n move towards it - adherence
* attach to the bacteria - ingestion
* lysosome will form n move toward phagosome contain bacteria - digestion
* lysosome fuse with the bacteria - killing
* microbe is destroy n phagocytic cell dies
* normal death of a cell known as APOPTOSIS
13
Q
RANDOM
A
- neutrophils = immune defense
- eosinophils = defense against parasites
- basophil = inflammatory response
- monocyte = immune surveillance
- B lymphocyte = antibody production
- T lymphocyte = cellular immune response
14
Q
natural killer (NK) cells
A
- lymphocytes that lack membrane molecules that identify T n B cells
- release perforin
15
Q
antimicrobial protein
A
produce anti-microbial activity n attract dendritic n mast cells
