Hazburn Flashcards
What are the two types of reactions in physiological response of asthma?
Early reaction (immediate bronchoconstriction) and delayed reaction (2-8hrs)
In early reaction (of asthma), antigen binding to ____ triggers histamines, typtase, LTC&D4, and prostoglandins from ____________
In early reaction (of asthma), antigen binding to IgE triggers histamines, typtase, LTC&D4, and prostoglandins from mast cells (leukotrienes)
Crosslinking by the antigen leads to ____ _____ __________, where IgE is bound to ____
Crosslinking by the antigen leads to mast cell degranulation, where IgE is bound to FcER
What is the genetic factor involved in goblet cell hyperplasia?
R576 polymorphism in the IL-4 alpha receptor
Where are the sites of disease in COPD vs Asthma?
(Proximal vs Peripheral)
COPD- Peripheral airway
Asthma- Proximal airway
What cells are involved in asthma vs COPD?
(Neutrophil, Eosinophile, TH1, TH2)
COPD- Neutrophils, TH1
Asthma- Eosinophils, TH2
Explain the pathway for ENaC mediating Na influx.
In normal cells, CFTR has a negative signal loop for ENaC mediating Na influx. In CF, CFTR is absent resulting in an increased water, sodium and Cl uptake in cells leading to dehydration of mucus.
