Q

What is the difference between a humoral specific immune response and cellular specific immune response?

A

Humoral specific immune response is the defense system made up by of antibodies, defense proteins secreted by lymphocytes that attack foreign agents with a high degree of specificity. Cellular specific immune response is the defense system in which specific lymphocytes (cells) directly attack other foreign cells and agents.

Q

Locate and explain the role of respiratory control centers in the brain.

A

Medulla:
the dorsal respiratory group -> takes place in normal breathing.
the ventral respiratory group -> forced breathing.
These respiratory rhythmicity centers establish the pace of respiration by adjusting pacemaker cells and coordinating respiratory muscle actions.

Pons: home to the apneustic and pneumotaxic centers, which work together to adjust the output of the respiratory rhythmic centers.

  • The pneumotaxic centers inhibit the apneustic centers and promote active or passive exhalation. An increase in pneumotaxic output quickens the pace of respiration by shortening the duration of each inhalation, and etc.
  • The apneustic centers promote inhalation by stimulating the DRG.
267
Q

Be able to explain the three major steps of hemostasis.

A

1 - Vascular: smooth muscle spasms, endothelial cells change structure and become sticky.

2 - Platelet phase: platelet adhesion, platelet aggregation, platelet plug.

3 - Coagulation: the extrinsic pathway begins with the release of tissue factor III by damaged endothelial cells or peripheral tissues. Tissue factor III then combines with Ca2+ and another clotting factor to form an enzyme complex capable of activating factor X, the first step in the common pathway. The intrinsic pathway begins with the activation of pro enzymes exposed to collagen fibers at the injury site. The pathway proceeds with the assistance of Pf-3, a platelet factor released by by aggregating platelets. After a series of linked reactions, activating clotting factors come together to form an enzyme complex capable of activating factor x. The common pathway begins when enzymes from either the extrinsic or intrinsic pathway activate factor x. Activated factor x activates the prothrombin activator - prothrombin activator converts the prothrombin enzyme to thrombin. Thrombin completes the clotting process by converting fibrinogen to fibrin.

267
Q

Secreted by T cells and NK cells and stimulates macrophage activity.

A

Gamma interferon

268
Q

Be able to explain the role of inactive CD4 T cells in antigen recognition.

A
  • Before they can initiate antibody mediated immunity, inactive CD4 cells must be exposed to class II MHC proteins.
  • Upon activation, CD4 T cells undergo a series of divisions and daughter cells differentiate into active helper t cells and memory TH cells.
  • Helper T cells stimulate immune responses of T and B cells, while the memory cells await the reapperance of the antigen.
269
Q

How immune system decreases with age

A

The immune system becomes less effective at combating disease. T cells become less responsive to allergens, so fewer cytotoxic t cells respond to an infection. Because the number of helper T cells is also reduced, B cells are less responsive so antibody levels do not rise as quickly after antigen exposure. The net result is an increased susceptibility to viral and bacterial infections.

270
Q

Explain the influence of baroreceptors on respiratory minute volume.

A

Barcoreceptors monitor blood pressure!

When arterial blood pressure decreases below its normal range, the respiratory minute volume increases due to stimulation of the respiratory centers.

When arterial blood pressure increase above normal range, the respiratory minute volume decreases due to inhibition of the respiratory centers.

271
Q

describe the process by which NKcells identify and kill abnormal cells.

A

a cell has unusual components in its plasma membrane, the NK cell recognizes it as abnormal.

The golgi apparatus moves around the nucleus until the maturing face points directly toward the abnormal cell. Perforin is produced and travels through the cytoplasm toward the cell surface.

The perforins are released at the cell surface via exocytosis and diffuse across the narrowing gap separating the NK cell from its target.
- As a result of the pores made by perforin molecules, the target cell can no longer maintain its internal environment and dies.

A

Lymphedema

273
Q

Explain why the lymphatic organs and tissues swell when the body fights infection.

A

When bacteria are recognized in the lymph fluid, the lymph nodes make more infection-fighting white blood cells, which can cause swelling.

274
Q

Distinguish between Hodgkin’s and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.

A

If the specific type of abnormal cell called a Reed-Sternberg cell is present, the lymphoma is classified as Hodgkin’s. If the Reed-Sternberg cell is not present, the lymphoma is classified as non-Hodgkin’s.

275
Q
