Extracellular microbes Flashcards
barriers to microbial penetration
mucus skin, lsyozyme, lactoferrin spermine, acid pH
these are considered extracellular microbes
baceteria, virus, parasite(dependng on stage of life cycel) any microbe prior to entry to cell
Cells of innate immunity
Monocytes/macrophages, neutropihls, NK cells, Mast cells, basopihls, dendritic cells
systems and molecules of innate immunity
complement, cytokines, defense molecules
C5a leads to
mast cell degranulation which leads to release of histamine which leads to translocate p selectin to cell surface on vascular endothelial cells and to increase vascular permability
activated vascular endothelium expresses
- -De novo p-selectin(histamine), E selectine(IL-1, TNF) which bind molecules on leukocytes
- -De novo ICAM1, VCAM1, upregulates ICAM1 (TNF, IL-1) which are compliments for circulationg luekocytes VLA-4, LFA-1
VLA-4 is made of
CD49d and CD29
LFA -1 is made up of
CD11a and CD18
Endothelial cells also secrete
MCP-1(CCL2) and IL8(CXCL8
matrix metalloproteinases degrade
the basement membrane and matrix
recruited cells squeeze
in between endothelial cells(diapedesis)
Diapedesis requires
PECAM-PECAM interaction to pull celsl through into tissues
