Q

When is erythropeoietin stimulated and what does it do?

A

EPO is stimulated with there are low blood oxygen levels. it is released by the kidneys and stimulates red blood marrow of the long bone to increase RBC’s. more red blood cells will increase the o2 carrying ability of the blood.

Triggered by exposing blood to a factor found on cells in tissues surrounding the blood vessel. This factor is called tissue factor (TF) or factor III.

Faster because it bypasses several steps of the intrinsic pathway. In severe tissue trauma, it can form a clot in 15 seconds.

Q

Thrombin catalyzes the transformation of the soluble clotting factor fibrinogen into fibrin. The fibrin molecules then polymerize (join together) to form long, hairlike, insoluble fibrin strands. (Notice that, unlike other clotting factors, activating fibrinogen does not convert it into an enzyme, but instead allows it to polymerize.) The fibrin strands glue the platelets together and make a web that forms the structural basis of the clot. Fibrin makes the liquid plasma become gel-like and traps formed elements that try to pass through it

Q

Q

Low blood flow, low blood pressure coming into the aortic arch, you will have less stretch in the blood vessels, the receptors are neurons and sense less stretch they will have less action potentials that go to the cardio vascular center in the medulla. The CVC will sense the less stretch, less blood flow, blood pressure, then it will increase

A

SNS.
You will see increased, Heart Rate, cardiac output goes up and pressure goes up.
Increase in contractility, increase stroke volume which increases cardiac output and blood pressure.

Q

Maturation of T vs. B cells

A

All of these cells come from the hemocytoblasts of the red bone marrow. The b cells come out of the bone marrow mature. The t cells have to go to the thymus gland to mature. Then they circulate in the lymph and travel all over the body tyring to come in contact with foreign cells.

A

may function in preventing autoimmune reactions

108
Q

A

antigen presenting cells

109
Q

role of antigen presenting cell

A

to precent the processed antigen to the helper T cell.

110
Q

T and B cells comes from red bone marrow, which ones comes out mature

A

B

111
Q

Both b and t make

A

memory cells

112
Q

helper T

A

receive the processed antigen and activate the cytotoxic T cells and B cells. They are a link between the two types of specific immunity.

113
Q

Active immunity

A

you are making your own antibodies. The memory cells make this immunity life long.
Active Natural - exposure to the antigen
Active Artificial - vaccine

114
Q

Active Natural Immunity

A

exposure to the antigen

115
Q

Active Artificial immunity

A

vaccine

116
Q

Active immunity is

A

lifelong because you make memory cells. Exposed naturally or vaccinated.

117
Q

Passive immunity -

A

the antibodies are given to you from placent or breast milk or an injection where they harvest antibodies. But as soon as they are used up you have to make new. This is not lifelong

118
Q

Opsonization

A

(“to make tasty”), which greatly accelerates phagocytosis of that pathogen.

119
Q

complement system

A

provides a major mechanism for destroying foreign substances in the body. Its activation unleashes inflammatory chemicals that amplify virtually all aspects of the inflammatory process. Activated complement also lyses and kills certain bacteria and other cell types. (Luckily our own cells are equipped with proteins that normally inhibit complement activation.)

120
Q

Complement is a series of

A

proteins that are inactive but once they are active they will coat or cover the outside of the antigen to up it’s chances of being phagocytised.

121
Q

Route thru respiratory system

A

Trachea – brochi (primary, secondary, tertiary) terminal, respiratory bronchioles (no cartiledge), alveolar duct, alveolar sac, alveolus.
As you go down the respiratory tree there is less and less cartiledge and more smooth muscle.

122
Q

Inspiration is an

A

active process because there are action potentials that travel down the phrenic nerve and innervate the diaphragm.

123
Q

inspiration is an active process because

A

The diaphragm contracts and then flattens when it flattens that will increase the volume of the thoracic cavity lower the pressure and cause air to flow in.

124
Q

Expiration is considered to be

A

passive because you stop action potentials going down the phrenic nerve so the diaphragm relaxes, when the diaphragm relaxes it will become dome shaped this will decrease the volume in the thoracic cavity, decrease the pressure and air flows out.

125
Q

Phrenic nerve

A

phrenic nerve (fren′ik), which receives fibers from C3, C4, and C5. The phrenic nerve runs inferiorly through the thorax and supplies both motor and sensory fibers to the diaphragm (phren = diaphragm), which is the chief muscle causing breathing movements.

126
Q

Two things that cause the lungs to collapse

A

high surface tension and the elastic recoil of the elastic fibers.

127
Q

Two things that prevent the collapse of the lungs

A

surfactant and the negative intrapleural pressure
Surfactant lowers the surface tension 40x, negative intrapleural pressure like sucking the lungs against the body wall. You need both of them

lower body temp, low co2, less free hydrogen and a higher PH.

131
Q

What influences the rhythmicity of breathing

A

Inspiratory center with influence from the higher brain centers in the pons. Apneustic center and pneumotactic center. The inspetory center is like the SA node is has spontaneous action potential. Expiratory center only plays a role in heavy labored breathing. When it is active it will inhibit the inspiratory center.

synthesis reactions like making a hormone, a neural transmitter
Catabolic are breakdown reactions – decomposition.

150

A

Electron carriers. They carry the electron to the electron transport chain for ATP synthesis. They are like taxi cabs.

154
Q

Lactic acid vs. pyruvic acid

A

both are the End products of glycolosis. When oxygen is available we get pyruvic acid, when O2 is not present we get lactic acid. When oxygen is present we get lots of ATP

155
Q

Fat soluble vitamins

A

Absorbed along with fats, they go through the lacteals and then the lymph where they eventually get into the blood stream. Since fat soluble vitamins can be absorbed with fats, they can also be stored with fats. You can overdose on these. You cannot overdose on water soluble vitamin, B and C

156
Q

Fatty acids catabolism

A

Beta oxidation – 2 carbons at a time are removed from the fatty acids. Those two carbons are converted to acetyle CoA which enters the kreb cycle. If break down too much fat you gets lots of aectyle coa you get ketons in your urine. This whole thing is reversible.

167
Q

If you have high osmolality in the extracellular space and the hypothalamus senses this is will cause the posterior pituitary to increase __________

PH

182
Q

Sensible vs. insensible perspiration

A

Sensible - Sweat – water loss through the lungs and skin but we can’t sense that which makes it insensible.

183
Q

How respiratory rate changes to fix pH

A

If you are acidic it means you have a low PH and lots of extra hydrogen and there will be an increase in respiratory rate. if respiratory rate goes up, you’ll have less c02, less free hydrogen and your PH will go up.
If your basic you have a higher PH, you’ll see a decrease in respiratory rate, we will retain c02, more co2, more free hydrogen and PH goes down.
Resp goes up, ph goes up, resp rate goes down PH goes down.
Fixes PH pretty quickly.
