heme/onc Flashcards
vWF receptor
GpIb
fibrinogen receptor on plts
GpIIb/IIIa
plt dense granules
ADP, Ca
plt alpha granules
vWF, fibrinogen
neutrophil granule contents
ALP, collagenase, lysozyme, lactoferrin.
azurophilic neurophil granule contents
proteinases, acid phosphatase, myeloperoxidase, beta-glucuronidase
hypersegmented PMNs
5+ lobes. seen in B12/folate def.
neutrophil chemotactic agents
C5a, IL-8, LTB4, kallikrein, plt-activating factor
monocyte histo
large, kidney-shaped nucleus. lots of “frosted-glass” cytoplasm
lipid A
from bacterial LPS. binds CD14 on macrophages -> shock
causes of eosinophilia
NAACP: neoplasia, asthma, allergic processes, chronic adrenal insufficiency, parasites (invasive)
basophilia
rare. can be a sign of CML
basophils
mediate allergic rxn. granules contain heparin + histamine. synthesize + release leukotrienes on demand
dendritic cell
highly phagocytic APC. link between innate + adaptive immunity. = langerhans in skin.
CD28
necessary costimulatory signal for T cell activation
