Leukocytes Flashcards
<p>Granulocytes</p>
<p>Neutrophils, Eosinophils, Basophils</p>
<p>Agranulocytes</p>
<p>Lymphocytes, Monocytes</p>
<p>Neutrophil granules contain?</p>
<p>bactericidal enzymes, antimicrobial substances</p>
<p>Barr body</p>
<p>Condensed X chromosome</p>
<p>Neutrophil fxn?</p>
<p>Phagocytize bacteria, release chemotactic factors</p>
<p>Eosinophil fxn?</p>
<p>Allergic rxn response, digest granules from mast cells, parasite response</p>
<p>Eosinophil granules contain?</p>
<p>Major basic protein</p>
<p>Basophil fxn?</p>
<p>Allergic response, inflammation mediators, chronic longterm inflammation</p>
<p>Basophils granules contain?</p>
<p>Histamine, Heparin, Eosinophilic chemotactic factor</p>
<p>Lymphocyte fxn?</p>
<p>Immune response</p>
<p>Lymphocyte types</p>
<p>T, B, NK</p>
<p>B lymphocyte immunity type?</p>
<p>Humoral</p>
<p>T lymphocyte immunity type?</p>
<p>Cell mediated</p>
<p>B lymphocyte fxn?</p>
<p>Differentiate into Plasma cells; which secrete antibodies to counteract toxins and bind antigens</p>
<p>B and T develop where?</p>
<p>Bone marrow</p>
<p>Difference btwn effector and memory lymphocyte?</p>
<p>Effector does its job, memory is retained to increase response reaction next time</p>
<p>Monocytes</p>
<p>Phagocytic; antigen presenters</p>
<p>When is monocytosis seen</p>
<p>Subacute/ chronic inflammation</p>
Stage of inflammation: Basophil, Eosinophil, Monocyte, Lymphocyte, Neutrophil
Chronic, Chronic, Subacute/chronic, chronic, acute
