Immunology Flashcards
Histamine is released from what type of allergic reaction
Type 1
What is the difference between the innate and adaptive immnunity?
Innate is activated first, complement and physiological barriers are always present. Innate uses neutrophils, APC like macrophages & NK cells. Innate is nonspecific & quick.
Adaptive is delayed and uses T cells & B cells
Bcells activate ___ which activate ___ which produce ____
Th2 CD4
Bcells
Antibodies
Macrophages activate ___ which activate ___ which then
Th1 CD4 T cells
macrophage
phagocytose
Unlike Th2 CD4 and Th1 CD4 Tcell, CD8 fights
viruses via apoptosis
Dendritic cells go to the
lymph nodes and activate the adaptive immune system
Monocyte vs macrophage
monocyte is in the blood, macrophage is in the tissue
Basophils
high in ALLERGY primarily –
normally very little in the blood – bind
IgE; release histamine»_space; vasodilation (type 1 hypersensitivity)
Eosinphils
larger PARASITIC INFXN
primarily but also allergy – more in blood
normally than basophils but still very
little
Neutrophils
bacterial infections or
fungal – highest concentration in blood
out of all white blood cell types
B cells do what?
make antibody
CD4 do what? and recognize what MHC?
help B cells
MHC 2
MHC 1 is on what cells?
all nucleolated cells except RBC
MHC 2 is on what cells?
antigen presenting (B cells, dendritic cells, macrophages)
CD8 cells are activated by who? and recognize which MHC?
IL-2 - Intracellular pathogen (virus)
MHC 1
Il2 stimulates
T cells (CD8)
IgM
when I AM sick its the frst one to detect when there is an antigen, so it is from the innate response,
IgG
only one that crosses the placenta and protects the new born for the first 4-6 months of life from the mom, type 2 & 3 hypersensivity. on the Fc receptor
IgA
in breast milk, mucous. Neutralizer, not inflammatory. made by plasma cells in the respiratory & GI tract
IgE
basophils & mast cells, type 1 hypersensivity (allergy/anaphylaxis)
the constant determines ___ and is attached to ____
the isotope
the cell
IL1, IL8, TNF-alpha are all used during
acute inflammation
IL1
fever, made by macrophages during acute inflammation to cause a change in the vessel endothelium that promotes neutrophil extravasion. plays a role in the formation of fever, stimulates T cells
IL8
recruit neutrophils
TNF-alpha
vascular leak, septic shock, macrophages
IL-10 + TGF-beta
inhibit inflammation (t cells)
