Q

Trypanosoma dz and mech

A

Trypanosomiasis

ABs

17
Q

Entamoeba histolytica dz and mech

A

Amebiasis

ABs and phago

18
Q

Schistosoma dz and mech

A

Schistosomiasis

Esosinophils and macros

19
Q

Filaria dz and mech

A

Filariasis

CMI and ABs?

20
Q

Eosinophil act mech

A

Th2 produces IL-5 which activates Fc epsilon rceptor of the mast cell

21
Q

Th2 production against helminths

A

IL-13 increases production of epithelial cells…more mucous
IL-5 recruits eosinophils
IL-4 drives B cells to produce IgE
IL-3 and IL-9 recruit mast cells to tissue (cause muscle spasms, diarrhea that expel)

22
Q

Th1 production against helminths

A

IFNgamma activates macrophages and disrupts infected tissues
Also helps produce IgG which has not effect against helminths

23
Q

Malaria innate response in liver

A

Produce type 1 IFNs and IFN gamma

24
Q

Malaria adaptive liver response

A

Depends on CD8 cells

25
Q

Malaria blood stage immunity

A

Th1 cells protect with IL-10 and IFNgamma activation…Th2 cells induce AB response

26
Q

Toxoplasma gondii gut mucosal response

A

Gets through gut and activates Th1 cells to produce IFNgamma to activate monos and macros to kill parasite

27
Q

IFNgamma sources for toxoplasm defense

A

CD4
NK cell (activated by IL-12 from dendritic)
Neutrophil
CD8 (activated by infected dendritic)

All prime the macro to kill by NO toxicity and decreased tryptophan
