contain germinal centers, B and T cells

29
Q

germinal centers of spleen

A

B and T cell activation

30
Q

marginal zone of spleen

A

white pulp transitions to red and their functions mix

31

A

delivers blood to spleen

32

A

delivers blood away from spleen

33

A

dense connective tissue

34
Q

hilum of spleen

A

identical
perfect V
AA antibody

37

43
Q

how does a COVID test work?

A

sample pad
conjugate pad (Latex tag)
nitrocellulose membrane
test strip
control strip
wicking pad

44
Q

test strip

A

tests antigen
if it is present it will bind to the antibodies

45
Q

control strip

A

checks validity
common antigen binds that is found in everyone

46
Q

how does a protein gel work

A

electrical current moves the negatively charged protein towards the positive electrode and gel beads filter the protein based on size

47
Q

how do antibodies look on denaturing SDS-PAGE

A

like numerous bands in a gel that are finely separated
the sds denatures and gives them all a negative charge to separate based on size

48
Q

how would they look on denaturing gel?

A

less bands due to less separation because the molecular weight is higher and have different isoelectric points

49
Q

diagram how a western blot works

A

separation
transfer
binding antibodies
visualize

50
Q

separation

A

typical gel with bands

51
Q

transfer

A

(positive)
cassette
sponge
filter
membrane
gel
cassette
(negative)

negatively charged protein is attracted to positive and moves from the gel toward the membrane

52
Q

binding of antibodies

A

membrane has antigen bound
primary antibody binds antigen by the fab region
secondary antibody binds primary antibody
enzyme is bound to secondary antibody for visibility

53
Q

visualize

A

less bands are shown due to the binding of antibodies

54
Q

diagram an ELISA

A

assay plate has capture antibody bound
primary antibody binds capture antibody
secondary antibody binds primary antibody
enzyme bound to secondary antibody as detection signal

55
Q

explain how ELISA works

A

detects antigens by binding to them and transmitting a detectable signal through antigens

56
Q

how can ELISA be used to detect antibodies

A

if the antibodies are present then the antigen is

57
Q

how does ELISA work clinically

A

can be used to detect diseases such as HPV and viruses like COVID

58
Q

start of classical cascade

A

antigen-antibody on C1qrs
C1
C4
C2

59
Q

start of alternative cascade

A

activating surfaces
C3b
factor B

60
Q

start of lectin cascade

A

pathogen surfaces on MASPS
C4
C2

61
Q

Start of all cascades combining

A

C5
C5b (and C5a)
C9, C8, C7, C6, C5b forming MAC

62
Q

what does the lectin pathway present for MAC

A

C9, C8, C7, C6

63
Q

Protein A column

A

Binds to the Fc region of immunoglobulin IgG

64
Q

Type I hypersensitivity

65
Q

Type III hypersensitivity

66
Q

Type II hypersensitivity

A

IgM or IgG
