What do caldesmon and calponin do?
Actin binding proteins that block myosin binding sites, action is calcium dependent
230
What is arrangement of myosin II in smooth muscle?
Side-polar thick filament
231
What do smooth muscle cells synthesize?
CT matrix, type 4 collagen, type 3 collagen, synthesizes type 1 collagen and elastin in blood vessels, synthesizes proteoglycans and glycoproteins
232
What is repair process for smooth muscles?
Regenerate easily, can use undifferentiated stem cells
233
What is repair process for skeletal muscle?
Myocytes and myotubules
234
What is repair process for cardiac muscle?
Scar tissue formation for minor injury, cannot repair extensive injury
235
What is glycophorin A in RBCs?
Attachment to band 3, contains antigenic sites for determning ABO blood types
236
What is glycophorin C in RBCs?
Attachment to membrane lattice and plasma membrane
237
What is band 3 protein?
Stabilizes plasma membrane by means of attachment to submembranous lattice, anchors cytoskeleton proteins, binds hemoglobin, anion transport
238
What is spectrin?
Main peripheral membrane protein in plasma membrane, forms lattice of spectrin and contributes to the shape of erythrocytes and provides elastic properties
239
What is spectrin anchored to lipid bilayer by?
Band 4.1 protein and ankyrin complex
240
What is band 4.1 protein?
Contains band 4.1, actin, tropomyosin, tropomodulin, and adductin
Interacts with glycoprotein C
241
What is ankyrin protein complex?
Contains ankyrin and band 4.2 protein
Interacts with band 3 protein
Binds integral membrane proteins to the spectrin lattice by forming complex with band 4.2 protein
242
What causes rouleuax formation (coin stacking RBC)?
Increased levels of plasma immunoglobulin
243
What do WBC granulocytes and agranulocytes both have?
Primary granules, called Axurophilic granules- function as lysosomes
244
What granulocytes does WBC have?
Neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils
245
What agranulocytes does WBC have?
Monocytes, lymphocytes
246
What is most common circulating leukocyte?
Neutrophils
247
What is least common circulating leukocyte?
Basophil
248
What do azurophilic granules contain?
Myeloperoxidase, neutrophil defensin, acid hydrolases
249
What do neutrophil small granules contain?
Enzymes, antimicrobial peptides, membrane proteins
250
What do neutrophil tertiary granules contain?
Phosphatases, metalloprteinases-(break down ECM)
251
What is diapedesis?
Local tissue response leads to cytokine release
Cytokines signal post capillary venules to insert selectins E and P
Passing neutrophils attach to selectins
Neutrophil secretes integrins and endothelial cells produce integrin ligand ICAM-1
Neutrophils get firmly attached
Neutrophils put out pseudopodia and migrate into loosened ECM CT (ECM loosened by heparin and histamine secreted by perivascular mast cells)
Proteases secreted by neutrophil destroy basement membrane, neutrophil becomes active in CT matrix and move towards injury site
252
What reactions are eosinophils associated with?
Immediate allergic reactions, Helminth and parasitic infections
253
What characteristic do eosinophils have?
Crystalloid body, secretes major basic proteins
254
What do histaminases do in eosinophils?
Neutralizes histamines, reduces allergic reaction
255
What do mast cells and basophils have in common?
Histamine and heparin
IgE antibody surface receptors
256
What is the only cell that can circulate between lymphoid tissue and blood?
Lymphocyte
257
What do NK cells secrete?
Perforins, Granzyme (proteases)
258
What does the granulomere (inner) part of glycolyx coat contain?
Alpha granules, delta granules, lambda granules/lysosomes, microperoxisomes
259
What do platelet alpha granules do?
Facilitate blood coagulation and platelet aggregation, growth factors
260
What do platelet delta granules do?
Facilitate platelet adhesion and vasoconstriction
Contain ADP and ATP, serotonin, histamine
261
What do platelet lambda granules/lysosomes do?
Hydrolytic enzymes function in clot reabsorption
262
What is platelet open canalicular system?
Invaginations of plasma membrane
263
What is platelet dense tubular system of hylomere?
Stores calcium ions
