Q

Sequence of inflammatory responses

A

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

Q

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.

A

Q

Transplant rejection

Begins immediately; results of antigen - antibody complexes that form in the blood

Q

Transplant rejection

Begins 1 week - 3 mos; inflammatory response causes lysis of organ cells

Immunosuppressants to try to salvage organ

A

Acute rejection

17
Q

Transplant rejection

Happens over time with all solid organ transplants

Due to chronic infection inflammation and scarring

Controlling the immune response can delay

A

Chronic rejection

18
Q

Transplant rejection

Immunosuppressants

Corticosteroids and antiproliferative agent said

A

Maintenance therapy

19
Q

Transplant rejection

Used to treat acute episodes

Same drugs as maintenance but higher doses

A

Rescue therapy

20
Q

Protect body from effects of invasion by organisms

Inflammation, antibody mediated immunity, and cell mediated immunity are needed

A

Leukocytes (WBCs)

21
Q

Changes in immune function related to aging

A

Decreased activity of neutrophils

Less antibody response to antigens

Less T-lymphocytes (weakened immune system)
