Ch 17 T3 Flashcards
Native or natural immunity that gets rid of harmful organisms
Innate
Occurs after tissue injury or invasion of organisms
Inflammations does not always mean this
Infection
Protection from invaders by phagocytosis
Anc
Neutrophils
Absolute nutraphil count = number of nature nutraphil count
Liver, spleen and intestinal tract has a high number
Very good at phagocytosis large cells long life
Macrophages
Stimulate inflammation
Basophils
Limits inflammatory response increases during allergic response
Eosinophils
Maintain and prolong inflammation and allergic reactions
Tissue mast cell
5 cardinal signs of inflammation
Warmth Redness Swelling Pain Decreased function
Sequence of inflammatory responses
Stage 1- changes in blood vessels
Stage 2- neutrophils, pus
Stage 3- tissue repair replacement - WBC trigger new blood vessel growth and scar tissue formation
immunity that develops after exposure to a suitable agent (as by an attack of a disease or by injection of antigens) — compare active immunity
Acquired immunity
Body learns to make adaptive response
Natural active immunity
Vaccines
Must be exposed to a dose to stimulate immune response
Artificial active immunity
Antibodies are passed to human after being made in another human or animal
Passive immunity
Cell-mediated immunity is an immune response that does not involve antibodies. Rather, cell mediated immunity is the activation of phagocytes, antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, and the release of various cytokines in response to antigen.
CMI
-t cells
Transplant rejection
Begins immediately; results of antigen - antibody complexes that form in the blood
Widespread clotting leads to vessel necrosis
Organ must be removed immediately
Hyperacute rejection
