Immune Response Flashcards
1st line of defense
Innate response
types of cells in the adaptive response
T cells and B cells
types of T cells
- Helper T cells
- Cytotoxic T cells
- Memory T cells
Types of B cells
- Naive B cells
- Activated B cells
- Plasma B cells
- Memory B cells
Types of cells in native response
- Basophils
- Neutrophils
- Macrophage
- MAST Cells
- Natural Killer (NK) cells
Chemical mediators in Innate response
Cytokines- Interleukins/ histamines/ heparin
Chemical mediators in adaptive response
Cytokine/ antibodies
action time of native response
0-24 Hours (quick)
action time of adaptive response
days- weeks (slower)
Which immune response has specificity?
Adaptive response
Which response has memory?
Adaptive response
Which response has the highest potency?
Adaptive response
4 signs of infection
- Increased temp
- redness
- swelling
- pain
Stages of catching neutrophils on the endothelial cells
1) recruitment
2) captured
3) rolling
4) arrest
5) diapedesis/ extravasation
MAST Cell function
Release histamine and heparin which causes increased blood flow and permeability
