Q

stages of inflammation and what is happening in each

A

vasodilation - arteries widen allowing increased blood flow, removes toxins, swelling, redness, heat

emigration - neutrophils accumulate to destroy microbes by phagocytosis, monocytes arrive

tissue repair - phagocytes carry out clean up, proliferation and remodeling begin

16
Q

how do natural killer cells kill stuff

A

granulosin
perforins
granzymes

17
Q

functions of major histocompatibility complex

A

identifies each cell in the body where it is foreign or not

MHC 1 - inside cell plasma membranes

MCH II - outside of cell - built into antigen presenting cell

18
Q

what is structural about lymphatic capillaries

A

anchoring filaments, more permeable, larger than blood capillaries

19
Q

difference between right and left lymphatic ducts

A

right drains the right side of head and upper body

left drains the rest of the body

20
Q

cisterna chyli

A

where left thoracic duct originates

21
Q

what kind of capillaries exist in red bone marrow

A

highly vascularized sinusoidal

22
Q

what cells live inside lymph nodes

23
Q

how lymph flows through a node

A

afferent
subcapsular
trabecular
medullary
efferent
hilum

24
Q

what happens in red and white pulp in spleen

A

red = cells go to die, platelet storage

white = immune response carried out by B & T cells

25
where is MALT found and what does it stand for
mucosa associated lymphatic tissue GI tract, renal, urinary tract
26
second line defence
antimicrobial fever inflammation
27
function of MCH
place markers or flags on plasma membranes
28
MHC I
built into plasma membranes of all cells except RBC INSIDE CELLS
29
MCH II
built into antigen presenting cells OUTSIDE CELL
30
what 3 things activate compliment
antibodies bind antigens lipids & carbs on microbes release lectins
31
3 results of complement system activation
increased phagocytosis histamine is released formation of a membrane attack complex
32
what cells express MCH II and what do not
macrophages, B cells DO RBCS, T cells DO NOT
33
T helper cells bind to MHC II to activate B cells
cytotoxic B cells bind MHC 1
34
antibody mediated are what cells
B
35
cell mediated are what cells
T cells
36
macrophages present antigens where
plasma membrane to T cells
37
dendritic cells present their antigens where
plasma membrane to T cells and B cells
38
B cells present antigens where
plasma membrane to helper t cells
