Q

PMN vs APC

A

PMN =polymorphonuclear lymphocytes = Neutrophils, many but shortlived

Progessional APCs = longer lived, fewer

Q

Firm adhesion of neutrophils, and regulation

A

Firm adhesion: LFA1 on neutrophils bind to ICAMs

Regulation by DEL1

17
Q

ILC 1

A

ILC1 mess with intracellular bacteria and viruses and parasites

IFN Gamma

18
Q

ILC2

A

Helminths

IL4, 5, 13

19
Q

ILC3

A

Extracellular bacteria, fungi

IL17 and 22

20
Q

Interferon types

A

Type 1 or alpha/beta made bymost cells

Type 2 or gamma made by lymphocytes

Made in response to viral infections, cause AVP production

21
Q

Inflammasome components

A

Cytosolic PRR, (NLR or ALR) detect DAMPs and PAMPs

Adapter protein (ASC)

Pro-Caspase-1, which is the inactive form. Becomes caspase 1 when MAMPs/DAMPs are present

22
Q

Th1

A

Made from IFNgamma, IL12
Makes IFNgamma
Activates macrophages

23
Q

Th2

A

Made from IL4,13

Makes IL4,5
Helminths (eosinophil and mast cell activation)

24
Q

Th17

A

Made from IL6,21, and TGFbeta
Makes IL17,22
Neutrophil recruitment and activation

25
Q

How to class switch to IgG

A

Expose b cell to IFNgamma

26
Q

How to class switch to IgE

A

Expose b cell to IL4

27
Q

How to class witch to IgA

A

Expose b cell to TGFbeta
