24
Q

eosinophil peroxidase (EPO)

A

cytotoxic for tumor & host cells

stimulates histamine relase

25
Q

Eosinophil function

A

host defense against helminth parasites associated with pro-inflammatory cells active in allergic diseases, parasitic infections, chronic inflammation

26
Q

Basophils General/ Maturation

A

develop from CFU-GEMM & CFU-Baso

basophilic blast

promyelocyte

basophilic myelocyte

basophilic metamyelocyte

basophilic band basophil

Basophil

27
Q

Basophil Granules

A

large, dark blue/purple/black various sizes, unevenly distributed obscure the nucleus!

contain HISTAMINE as well as heparin, platelet activating factor, leukotriene C4, IL-4, IL-13

28
Q

Mast cells

A

resident TISSUE ‘basophils’ live from weeks to months similar function to basophil

29
Q

Basophil Function

A

poorly understood

mediators in inflammatory response (especially in hypersensitivity) receptors for IgE that cross linked with Ag result in granule release enzymes released are:

vasoactive

bronchoconstrictive

chemotactic

30
Q

Hypersensitivity steps

A
  1. Ag is presented to T helper cells
  2. stimulates B cell production= produce large # of IgE
  3. IgE attach to mast cells and basophils = sensitization phase
  4. exposed to Ag for a 2nd time= activates mast/baso cells and release histamine & cytokines
31
