Concerning asthma chronic disease results in what two manifestations?
- air way hyper responsiveness
- air inflammation induced remodeling
Extrinsic asthma is dependent upon what?
IgE
TH2 cells secrete what cytokines in a hypersensitivity type I RXN?
IL-4, IL-5, IL-13
IL-4 induces B cells to produce what antibody?
IgE
Mast cells that have bound IgE in their Fc receptors are said to be what?
Sensitized
In chronic/severe asthma airway remodeling is mediated via what cytokine?
TGF-beta
Autoimmune bullous skin diseases result from antibodies binding what?
Desmoglein and bullous pemphigoid proteins
Where is desmoglein 1 located?
Superficial layer of epidermis
Where is desmoglein 3 located?
Basal layer of epidermis and throughout mucous membrane epithelium
Where is BP 230/180 located?
Hemidesmosome
What is it called when patient epithelium is incubated w/ a fluoroprobe labeled antibody?
DIF- direct immunofluoresence
What is it called when patient serum is incubated w/ a primary antibody and a secondary fluoroprobe labeled antibody binds to the target bound primary antibody?
IDIF- Indirect immunoflourescence
What solid organ rejection occurs in minutes to hours, has preformed anti-donor antibodies and compliment activation, ex: ABO incompatibility?
Hyper acute
What type of solid organ transplant rejection can occur w/ pregnancy, blood transfusion, previous organ transplant, infection by cross reactivity?
Hyper acute
Abs binding graft, complement products attract neutrophils which release lyric enzymes, lytic enzymes destroy endothelium, MAC formed, platelets adhere to injured tissue causing vasculature damage describes what?
Hyper acute rejection
