Q

Goodpastures syndrome

also can happen in NKand CTL and the interacting with B cells

25
Q

Lazy leukocyte syndrome

A

primary defect
defect in the PMN ability to respond to cheekiness or an inability to produce C3a, C5a
Can’t recognize chemotactic signals to leave the vasculature and thus they don’t leave the circ NO PUS
ALLOgenic stem cell transplant is only treatment

Actimmune® (r IFN- gamma) but ultimately require allogeneic bone marrow stem cell transplant

30
Q

Bruton’s X-linked agammaglobulinemia

A

primary defect of B cell development, defect BTK gene
Block in B cell development at the pre-B cell stage due to inability of mu heavy chain to signal with surrogate light chain, thus severely decreased mature B cell numbers and decreased Ig levels
Severe recurrent bacterial infections with Streptococcus pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, Haemophilus influenza, and other bacteria that form capsules
HISG monthly

31
Q

X-linked hyper-

IgM syndrome

A

-primary defect, little to no isotope switch

-get Streptococcus, otitis media, septicemia and pneumonia
need BMT

32
Q

BMT treatment

38
Q

bare lymphocyte syndrome

A

Loss of all CD8+ T cells (types I and II) and/or CD4+ T cells (Type II only) because they cannot be positively selected in the thymus
Recurrent opportunistic viral, bacterial, and fungal infections.
no antigen specifice t cell response but the is mitten response
need BMT

39
Q

SCID

A

Loss of T cells and B cells. 40% of SCID is caused by mutations in IL2RG and 20% are due to mutations in ADA

BMT

40
Q

OMENN syndrome

A

autosomal recessive mutation in RAG1 or RAG2( both ch11)
no b cells and few t cells that can be auto reactive
inability to generate heavy/light chains (B cells) or T cell receptors

need BMT

41
Q

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome

A

B cells, T cells,macrophages, X linked

  • Mutations in WASP protein & results in normal B and T cell numbers, but defective Ab production and killing activity
  • Eczema, defective Ab production, decreased cytotoxic killing ability. thrombocytopenia and unusually small platelets; increased risk of AI dx and lymphomas
  • HISG to replace missing Ab, but ultimately a bone marrow transplant
42
Q

Ataxia Telangiectasia

A

autosomal recessive mutation in inATM gene on ch11
