18
Q

Macrophage markers

A

CD14 - (aka TLR4) binds lipid A of LPS
CD40 - binds CD40L of Th
B7 - binds Th/Tc to activate them
Fc-R and C3b-R - phagocytosis

19
Q

NK markers

A

CD16 - ADCC by binding Fc of IgG

CD 56 - marker

20
Q

superantigens mechanism

A

crosslink TCR and MHC-II

thus can activate ANY t-cell

21
Q

HST resulting in systemic symptoms and vasculidities

A

Type III

22
Q

transfusion reactions:

A

to plasma proteins = allergic or anaphylactic (IGA defic.)
to HLA Ag and WBCs = febrile non-hemolytic
to RBCs = acute hemolytic

23
Q

anti-centromere

A

CREST

24
Q

polymyositis/dermatomyositis Abs

A

Anti-Jo
Anti-SRP
anti-Mi-2

25
Q

PBC ab

A

anti-mitochrondrial

26
Q

scleroderma abs

A

Anti-Scl-70

anti DNA topo-I

27
Q

anti-sm

A

autoimmune hepatitis

28
Q

anti-CCP

A

RA

29
Q

ASCA

A

Chrons

30
Q

No B-cell + no IGs vs. no plasma cells + no Igs

A

No B = BTK deficiency (Bruton’s agammaglobulinemia)

No plasma = combined variable immunodeficiency

31
Q

IL-12-R deficiency

A

systemic fungal and mycobacteria infections because macrophages releasing IL-12 does nothing

AR

32
Q

Job syndrome

A

hyper IgE - AD
STAT-3 mutation, no TH17, so PMN chemotaxis or IgE down regulation
Facies, cold abscesses, eczema, retained teeth

33
Q

low TRECs

A

SCID
also no thyme shadow, germinal centrism or T-cells
do NOT give live vaccines!
Get every type of infection

34
Q

immune defic. with high AFP

A

Ataxia telangectasia

low IgA, IgG, IgE

35
Q

immune defic. with thombocytopenia

A

W.A
triad = thrombocytopenia, eczema, recurrent infections
also autoimmune diseases and malignancies
via actin cytoskeleton problem
*low IgG and IgM
*high IgA and IgE

36
Q

high IgE

A

Job

W.A (also high IgA)

37
Q

delayed umbilical cord separation

A

LFA-1 (CD-18) defic.

LAD

38
Q

albanism + neuro

A

chediak higashi; LYST

pancytopenia

39
Q

Nitroblue tetrazolium dye test yellow

A

CGD

make granulomas because can’t kill them with res. burst

40
Q

graft thrombosis with ishcemia/necrosis

A

Hyperacute; preformed Abs

41
Q

A

acute; CD8

42
