25
The cell that capture antigen and display it without prosising is
FDC
26
What are the differences between all types of dendritic cells
27
The cell that don’t migrate when capturing an antigen
Macrophage
28
Lymphocyte distinct to t and B cells
NK cells
29
The cell that kill without clinal expansion or differentiation is
Nk
30
Cells that are different in their function but morphologically similar
T cells and B cells
31
The cells that have Cd 45 recopter
T /b / thrombocyte/monocyte/granulocytes/hematopoietic stem cells
32
Hoe we differentiate between granylocyte and monocyte
G( Cd15) M(Cd14)
33
Howe we differentiate between T and B cells
T ( بd4 for helper and Cd 8 for cyto toxic
34
Explain the distribution of lymphocyte
65% 15% 10% 2%
35
The only cells in our body that have clonally distributed antigen recopter
Lymphocyte
36
How we have millions of receptors on lymphocytes with a small germ line DNA
Recombination of DNA segments during the maturation of these cells
37
What is the difference between primary or central lymphoid organ and the secondary or the perepheral
38
The site of T cell maturation is
Thymus
39
The site t\hat has mostly mature T cells in thymus is called
Medulla
40
Describe structure of thymus
Bilobed structure in anterior mediastinum Has 2 lobes divided into lobules by fibrous septa
41
What are the cells inside medulla and what its function
TMEC
42
What is the main function of lymphatic system and what does lymph contain
Drain fluids from tissues in and out of lymph nodes ( adaptive immunity )then to blood ( tissue fluid homeostasis and immune response ) Contains microbes and dendritic cells and inflammatory mediators
43
Describe structure of lymph nodes
Encapsulated vasculirized secondary lymphoid organ Follicles ( B cell zone) or germinal center in the cortex around FDC( makes dense reticular network) In parafolicular cortex we have T cell zone Depending on cytokines secreted by lymph node stromatolites cell
44
B cell directly from bone marrow to lymph nodes but T cells from bone marrow to thymus then to lymph nodes
45
What is the type of cytokines that determine the position of T and B cells in lump nodes and what the importance
Chemokines ( chemoattractant cytokines ) bind to receptors on lymphocytes To ensure that each one of them get close to the correct APC ( dendritic for t and FDC for B)
46
When adaptive immunity is carried in spleen or lymph nodes
Spleen if antigen in circulation because its the largest lymphoid tissue Node if antegin in tissues
47
The splenic parenchyma is divided into 2. Structures what are they
1 red pulp ( filter the blood/ removes dead blood cells especially red blood cell/ remove microbes and particles like immune complexes and opsonized microbes) composed of blood filled vascular sinusoids 2 white pulp ( adaptive immunity against blood borne microbes ) composed of lymphocytes
48
How does the blood pass through spleen
49
People who are suspected to get encapsulated bacterial infection are
Who removes the spleen
50
The boundary between red and white pulp in the spleen is
Marginal zone
51
Inhaled and ingested microbes are defenses by
MALT ( mucosa associated lymphoid tissue ) like lymph node but not capsulated in skin and GI mucosa and bronchi mucosa
52
What are pathogens that innate immunity can recognize
Conserved pattern that don’t change by mutation
53
Antibiotic resistance protein is recognized by
Adaptive immunity
54
Pamps can be
Nuclear acid Complex lipids and carbs Protein
55
What are Damps and when they are secreted
Because of infection or ( decreased blood supply or trauma or burns or chemical toxins
56
what are PRR
Receptors for pampas and damps Cellbounded or soluble in tissue fluid
57
Toll like receptor ( conserved) from insects to mammals / where does ligand bind
Leucine rich motif / myD88/ NF-kb Tlr( cell bounded in membrane recognize external patterns like 2 and 4 Intracellular in endoscopes recognize nuclei acids like 3 and 7
58
LPs must bound to 2 adaptor proteins in order to bind TLr
Cd14 Md2 Then signal is transmitted by my d 88 or trif
59
All tLr signals through my d 88 except tlR 3 by
Trif and activate irf 3 to give type 1 interferon
60
What are other types of recopters
Carbohydrate recopters ( most. Important for bacteria / soluble or in membrane/ c type lectins / mannose decton receptors Scavenger ( not mammals ) N formal - met-lue-phe ( n formalmethionyle residues ( chemo attractants )
61
What are major cytoplasmic receptors
1 NOd like receptors 2 RIG receptor
62
NLR
20 types NoD 1 and 2 in mucosal epithelial cells and phagocytes ( piptidoglycan ) NlRp( pyrin domain0 respond to pamp and damp and make inflammasome that produce active form of lt1
63
What is the importance of Nlrp
When bind pampas or damps it makes inflammasome that cleaves caspase 1 and activate il b1 and I’ll. 18
64
What are most important cytokines kinds and who secrete ie
Il1 Il6 Tnf\ By macrophage and mast cells mainly but also endothelial and epithelial
65
What is the role of TNF
Acute inflammation Cell proliferation in AP1 Cell killing in apoptosis By macrophage only
66
What s simulates the production of Tnf and ilb1
67
Systemic and local effects and induces the liver synthesis of inflammatory cytokines nd neutrophils from bone marrow
Interloken 6
68
Differentiation of il17 helper T cells
IL6
69
Give ex on soluble prr
Natural antibodies. Complement protein
