HY - inflammation + renal Flashcards
catalase + organisms in CGD
pseudamonas cepacia, s marcescens, nocardia, aspergillus, s aureus
first step of oxidative burst
O2 to superoxide by NADPH reductase; if intact then + nitro blue tetrazolium test
second step of oxidative burst
superoxide to hydrogen peroxide by SOD
third step of oxidative burst
hydrogen peroxide to HOCL by myeloperoxidase; normal nitro blue tetrazolium test; + risk of candida infections
opsonins
IgG and C3b
failure of phagolysosome fusion
chediak higashi; big granules, albinism, prone to infections
IL8
macrophages calling in neutrophils for continued acute inflammation
2nd activation signal of CD4+ T cell
B7 on APC binds CD28 on CD4
Two cell types that CD4 helps
B and CD8
Th1 cytokines - helps CD8
IL2 (2nd signal of T cell activation) and IFN y
Th2 cytokines - helps B cells
IL4, IL5, and IL10
modes of cell killing
cytochrome c, FasL, CD8 dumping of granzyme
2nd activation signal of B cells
CD40 R on B cells bind CD40L on helper T cell
IL4 and IL5 released by Helper T cells
mediate B cell isotype switch, hypermutatino and maturation to plasma cells
epithelioid histiocytes
Th1 secrete IFNy induce; aggregation (macrophages with abundant pink cytoplasm) = granuloma
non-caseating granuloma
sarcoidosis, beryllium exposure, crohn disease, cat scratch disease, freaction to foreign material (breast implant etc)
crypt abscesses + non-caseating granuloma
crohn disease
stellate shaped granuloma
cat scratch disease
caseating granuloma
TB (AFB stain) and funcus (silver/GMS stain)
DiGeorge (22q11)
T cell deficiency (no thymus), hypocalcemia (no parathyroid), abnormalities of heart, great vessels, and face
SCID
adenosine deaminase deficiency (accumulation of toxic material kills lymphocytes) = NO cell mediated and humoral immune cells making susceptible to ALL kinds of infections
X-linked agammaglobinemia
mutation Bruton Tyrosine Kinase; X-linked; surfaces at 6 mo when mom’s Ab leave system; no maturation of B cells; recurrent bacterial, enterovirus, giarida; AVOID live vaccines
Elevated IgM
mutated CD40 or CD40L = cytokines necessary for Ig class switching will not be produced
Wiskott-Aldrich
thrombocytopenia, eczema, recurrent of infections, mutations in x-linked WASP mutation
C5-9 deficiency
increased risk of neisseria
C1 inhibitor deficiency
hereditary angioedema with peiorbital edema + mucosal surfaces
negative selection
removal of self-reactive lymphocytes
AIRE mutation
necessary for expressino of self-antigens in thymus for negative slection; if mutated = autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome of HYPOPARATHYROIDISM, ADRENAL INSUFFICIENCY and CANDIDA INFECTIONS
peripheral tolerance
anergy and expression of FASL
HLA B27
Ankylosing Spondylitis
loss of self tolerance + environmental trigger
auto-immne disease
SLE
Type 3 hypersensitivity + decreased CH50, C4 and C4 because complement proteins are being used against tissues + antibodies against host nuclear material
SLE sx
fever, weight loss, fatigue, raynauds, discoid rash, malar rash worse with sun, oral/nasopharyngeal ulcers, arthritis, serositis
SLE clinical sx
renal damage (diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis, membranous glomerulonephritis), Ab against cells (anemia, thrombocytpoenia, leukopenia due to T2 hyper-sensitivity), libman-sacks endocarditis (vegetations on both sides of valve)
Anti-nuclear (sensitive) + Anti-dsDNA + Anti-Sm ANTIBODIES (specific)
SLE
Anti-phospholipid Ab
SLE; false positive for syphilis, paradoxical elevated PTT; risk of spontaneous abortions and thrombosis requiring life-long anti-coagulation
Anti-histone Ab
Drug induced lupus: Hydralazine, Procainamide, Isoniazide
SLE COD
renal failure, infection, accelerated coronary atherosclerosis
dry mouth, dry eyes, recurrent dental caries, type 4 hypersensitivity
Sjogrens Syndrome, often with RA (presence of RF)
Anti-SSA + Anti-SSB
anti-ribonucleoproteins in Sjogrens; can cross placental resulting in neonatal lupus with congenital heart block
Screen pregnant SLE patient for what AB?
Anti-SSA and Anti-SSB
Salivary gland biopsy DDx
Sjogrens, Amyloidosis, Sarcoidosis
Salivary gland biopsy Sjogrens
lymphocyte invasion
Lymphoma risk in Sjogrens
B cell lymphoma; unilateral partodi gland swelling
Anti-Centromere antibodies
Systemic Sclerosis
CREST
Systemic Sclerosis: Calcinosis, anti-Centromere, Raynaud, Esophageal dysmotility with GERD, Sclerodactyly (loss of wrinkles, thick and hard), Telangiectasia
anti-DNA topoisomerase antibodies
diffuse type scleroderma
