Dani - immunopathology I Flashcards
____ (____-____) immunity: inherited and do not depend on previous exposure
natural
non-specific
___ line of defense: mechanical (skin), cilia in trachea and bronchi, nasal and gastric secretions
first
___ line of defense: lysozymes, complement and phagocytic cells
second
___ (____) immunity: specific response following exposure to a particular antigen
acquired
specific
essential features of immune system
- ___ : for one particular antigen
specificity
essential features of immune system
- ___ : can recognize different antigens
diversity
essential features of immune system
- ____: to previous antigens, responsible for rapid, higher and persistent secondary immune response
memory
essential features of immune system
- ____: by releasing cytokines that recruit and activate other defense mechanisms
recruitment
immunopathology: 3 groups of diseases
hypersensitivity
autoimmune
immunologic deficiency
___: abnormal exaggerated immune reaction resulting in tissue injury
allergy
4 types of allergies
type I =
immediate (anaphylactic)
4 types of allergies
type II =
cytotoxic
4 types of allergies
type III =
immune complex
4 types of allergies
type IV =
cell mediated hypersensitivity
type I = immediate (anaphylactic) reaction
- mechanism
- 1st exposure stimulates humoral AB (___) —> binds to ___ cells and blood ____
IgE
mast
basophils
type I = immediate (anaphylactic) reaction
- mechanism
- subsequent exposure, the allergen reacts with fixed ___ –> degranulation of ___ cells –> release of ___
AB
mast
histamine
___: local form (affecting 1 organ) of type I allergies
Atopy
atopy is a response to ___ or ___ environmental allergens
ingested
inhaled
atopy effects __% of the population
10
atopy has a strong ___ ___
familial predisposition
___: systemic form of type 1 allergies
anaphylaxis
anaphylaxis releases ___ amines into circulation
vasoactive
anaphylaxis follows injection of ___
allergens
type II: cytotoxic reaction and antibody mediated rxn
- specific humoral antibody (_____ or ____) reacts with cell membrane antigen, activates the complement resulting in cell lysis
IgG
IgM
