A

shaped like a cluster of 5 antibodies

  • increased change to recognize antigen

Q

Natural Kill cell

A

falls under agranulocyte group, but has granulocytes.
can kill cancer and virally infected cells without previous exposure.
- lack of self- identifier (MHC I) triggers target for NK Cells

alveolar macrophages

23
Q

kupffer cells

A

macrophage in the liver

24
Q

mesangial phagocytes

A

macrophage in the kidney

25
lymph node
resident and recirculating macrophages
26
monocytes
phagocytic cells/macrophages in blood
27
synovial A cells
macrophages in the joint
28
classical complements activation
IgG or IgM antibody-antigen complexes
29
alternative complement activation
activated on 1st exposure, innate immune response | - triggers: lipopolysaccharides (bacteria) and bacterial endotoxin
30
lectin complement activation
biomolecule that binds mannose on bacteria cell wall, triggering complement cascade
31
Complement cascade causes
increased inflammation chemotaxis lysis of target cell
32
clonal diversity
B and T cells can reproduce replicas with different reading sequence identifiers - antigen reading sequence
33
immunocompent
elicit immune response
34
clonal selection
increases of decreases with T and B cells proliferate in accordance with needed immune response
35
T regulatory cell
regulates (stops) proliferation once immune response is achieved: antigen cleared.
36
APC
antigen presenting cell - macrophages - dendrites
37
CD8+
cytotoxic T cell: works with MCH I
38
CD4+
helper T cell: works with MCH II
39
B cell activation
needs helper T cell to activate proliferation into memory and plasma cells
40
cell mediated immunity
T cells T cell receptor recognized foreign antigen - only able to respond to one antigenic epitope
41
central tolerance
in thymus where T- cells mature, must go through selection - negative: T cell recognizes "self" as foreign, destroyed in thymus. - positive: ensure T cell does not recognize "self" as foreign, as well as does not elicit too harsh immune response.
42
T helper cell
``` recognize MHC II activation of kinases in cytoplasm: - activate immune system - neutrophil recruitment - pro-inflammatory signals ```
43
cytotoxic T cells
recognize MHCI | proliferate into memory cells and effector cells
44
humoral immunity
B cells - binding of antigen to BCR initiates cascade - - proliferation and differentiation. --- memory b cells and plasma cells for effective activation B cell must engulf antigen ad present to helper T cell.
45
Antibody precipitation function
each arm of immunoglobulin Y binds an antigenic epitope - bind into large insoluble complex - leave in body fluids
46
agglutination antibody function
binds to create large complex | - phagocytic cells find large complex
47
neutralization antibody function
neutralizes bacterial toxin - binds to toxin before it can interact with cells - covers active portion of toxin: inactivates
48
opsonization antibody function
coats foreign antigen making it more recognizable to phagocytic cells.
49
innate humoral
myeloid cells
50
innate cell mediated
NK cells
51
adaptive humoral
B cells: plasma cells antibodies Helper T cells antigen presenting cells
52
adaptive cell mediated
cytotoxic T Cells
53
Passive immunity
antibodies donated form immune individual to an unprotected or non-immune individual - placenta - breast milk - serotherapy
54
active immunity
active infection | vaccination
