17
Q

four types of resolution

A

extrusion, resorption, integration, encapsulation

18
Q

tissue repair is characterized by…

A

the defect being replaced with scar tissue

19
Q

tissue regeneration is characterized by…

A

the defect is replaced with tissue identical to the original tissue (reepithelialization - possible only if the injury affects just the epidermal layer)

20
Q

four levels of toxicity

A

acute (24 hrs), subacute (14-28 days), subchronic (90 days), chronic (beyond that)

21
Q

factors that affect the “dose” of a material

A

weight, surface area, topography

22
Q

four characteristics of acquired immune response

A

specificity, diversity, self/nonself recognition, immunologic memory

23
Q

two types of acquired immunity

A

humoral (based on antibodies made by B cells) and cellular (uses T cells to detect altered self cells like cancer or viruses)

24
Q

3 types of lymphocytes

A

T, B, and NK cells

25
Q

acquired immune response is triggered by

A

binding of an antigen to an antibody or T cell receptor

26
Q

an _________ is the site on the antigen that the antibody recognizes

A

epitope

27
Q

a ________ is a small substance that combines with a larger molecule to produce a greater immune response

A

hapten

28
Q

an __________ nonspecifically enhances the immune response to antigens

A

adjuvant

29
Q

antigens are often displayed together with a ___________ molecule

A

major histocompatibility complex (MHC)

30
Q

B cells are formed in the … and mature in the ….

A

bone marrow, lymph nodes and spleen

31
Q

T cells are formed in the … and mature in the …

A

bone marrow, thymus

32
Q

antibodies aid in pathogen removal in four ways

A

agglutination, precipitation, neutralization, lysis

33
Q

AIDS destroys ____ cells

A

T-helper

34
Q

two means of the complement system

A

classical and alternative (most common for biomaterials) pathway

35
Q

C5 convertase acts on C5 to produce

A

C5a (chemotactic agent for neutrophils) and C5b (initiates formation of the MAC)

36
Q

classical pathway is initiated by

A

binding of IgG or IgM antibody

37
Q

alternative pathway is initiated by

A

C3

38
Q

_____ proteins mask binding sites to regulate the classical pathway

A

regulator of complement activation (RCA)

39
Q

______ binds to C3 convertase to regulate the complement system

A

decay-accelerating factor (DAF)

40
Q

if a material has been coated in a way that makes it more easily phagocytosed, it has been…

A

opsonized
