CIS 1, 2, 3 / Practice Questions Flashcards
Say there’s a virus that is down regulating the amount of MHCI, what is going to act and what is not going to act?
CD8 aren’t going to be able to destroy, but NK cells are going to ramp up from decrease of inhibition signals
What is present on NK cells? what kind of hypersensitivity is this considered?
CD16
2 for some reason
B cells have what on their surface?
CD19
What cells can capture antibody coated HIV visions through their FC receptors?
Follicular Dendritic Cells
Cyclosporine?
methotrexate is used for?
minimize lymphocyte-mediated transplant rejection
graft vs host disease
Transfusion reactions are what kind of hypersensitivity?
2!
Complement is found in what hypersensitivity reaction?
2 + 3
When there’s antibody being directed at a parasitic infection, what should you be thinking?
ADCC (antibody-mediated cellular cytotoxicity)
IgG and IgE antibodies bearing Fc receptors coat the parasite and have them lysed.
Serum sickness is what?
injected foreign protein, produces widespread antigen-antibody complex deposition, PARTICULARLY IN THE KIDNEYS
What is an Arthur reaction and what are you going to see?
localized immune complex reaction at the site of the injection and the depletion of complement C3
smooth and linear is what?
type 2 hypersensitivity reaction.
what antibody is going to scream good pasture?
anti-basement membrane antibody
IL-17 does what?
recruits neutrophils
IL-2 does what?
T cell proliferation
IL-5 does what?
activates eosinophils
IL-10 does what?
immunosuppressive
injury of a injection and 48 hours you have erythema. something stains positive for CD4. what is it?
what test is in this grouping too?
type 4 hypersensitivity (delayed type hypersensitivity)
PPD skin test
fundamental mechanism behind SLE?
defective clearance and hence increased burden of nuclear apoptotic bodies in thymus lymphocyte development
why would someone have recurrent thrombosis in SLE?
antiphospholipid antibodies like anticardiolipin –> against phospholipid protein complexes, lead to inc rebased thrombosis
what’s likely to develop in people with SLE? 2 things
chronic renal failure
hemolytic anemia through the development of anti-RBC antibodies
what are you going to see that screams CREST syndrome?
anti-centromere
what are you going to see that screams Scleroderma?
SCL-70 (or Anti-DNA topoisomerase)
What are you going to see that screams mixed connective tissue disease?
Anti-U1-RNP
Sjogrens hs an increased risk of what?
Lymphoma
What’s causing the problems of scleroderma?
what does this lead to in individuals?
CD4
severe hypertension
say something says severe, recurrent bacterial, fungal and viral infections.. what should you be thinking?
what causes this?
what happens but is less likely?
SCID
X linked mutation in COMMON GAMMA CHAIN
in autosomal recessive cases –> problems with adenosine deaminase
C1 inhibitor problems, what do they present with?
swelling of the face, but ALSO throat, trouble swallowing, abdominal pain, cramping.
seems like a type 1 hypersensitivity, but it’s just complement causing massive edema
(hereditary angioedema)
Wiskott Aldrich Syndrome is characterized by what?
what do they have an increased risk for?
thrombocytopenia, eczema, and decreased IgM (increased recurrent infections)
whenever there’s an immunodeficiency disorder, immune dysregulation or this, think NON Hodgkin Lymphoma
What cancers are common in aids patients?
B cell lymphoma, burkitts lymphoma
Apple green and Congo red are seeing in what type of what?
what does not show up on Congo red but still is bubblegum looking?
light chain amyloid (AL) –> plasma cells secreting it so MYELOMA
AA which is seen in chronic inflammatory diseases like RA or lupus
Polymyositis?
chronic inflammation of the muscles and associated tissues
you see focal necrosis of the muscle fibers
Poison ivy is what hypersensitivity?
type 4! contact dermatitis
Hydrops fetalis is what hypersensitivity?
2
Mixed connective tissue disease is a mix of what?
SLE, Polymyositis, scleroderma
CVID has what 2 things associated with ti?
hypogammaglobulinemia for bacterial infections and GIARDIA
difference between discoid and classic SLE?
discoid does not have a positive DS-DNA
if there’s “nuclear pattern” in the name, what should you be thinking?
crest / scleroderma
Tetany in the question, what should you jump too?
hypocalcemia –> digeorge
what leads to lung fibrosis that is found in the environment?
inorganic dusts –> inhaled and ingested by macrophages, they release cytokines leading to fibrosis
drowning is associated with what hemorrhage style?
strangulation?
falling?
mastoid sinuses
petechial hemorrhages
contusions
