Immunity 1 and 2 Flashcards
Notes on the first and second line
PRR exist even before encountering a specific bacteria
True
Inflammatory responses are general responses
true
characteristics of FUO
fever greater than 101 F
lasts longer that 3 weeks
cause is not determined in 1 week
IFN Alpha stimulates
phagocytosis
IFN Beta stimulates
phagocytosis
IFN Gamma are products of
T cells
IFN Alpha and Beta are products of
nmany cells including lymphocytes, ,fibroblasts and macrophages
IFN Gamma are
immune regulators of macrophages and T & B cells
Immune systems are responsible for
body survellience
recognition and destruction of foreign bodies
How many lines of defense are there
3
How many lines are innate?
1
What are the names of the innate and non specific lines of defense?
1st and second line
What are the major types first line defenses?
Physical barriers
chemical barriers
genetic components
System of protective cells and fluids that act w hen the first line is circumvented
Second Line of Defense (non-specific)
Second line Mechanisms
Phagocytosis
Fever
Inflammation
Antimicrobial Proteins
Functions of Phagocytes
survey tissues for targets
engulfment
Antigen extraction from foreign matter
Types of phagocytes
neutrophiles Macrophages Dendritic Cells Mast Cells Eoisinophils
How many steps are in phagocytosis?
6
What are the steps for phagocytosis
Chemotaxis adhesion engulfment phagolysosome Destruction Elimination
What happens during Chemotaxis and adhesion
the phagocyte find the antigen and the antigen binds to the phagocytes MHC II receptor
