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

A

B&T

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
Q

where is MALT found and what does it stand for

A

mucosa associated lymphatic tissue

GI tract, renal, urinary tract

26
Q

second line defence

A

antimicrobial
fever
inflammation

27
Q

function of MCH

A

place markers or flags on plasma membranes

28
Q

MHC I

A

built into plasma membranes of all cells except RBC

INSIDE CELLS

Q

MCH II

A

built into antigen presenting cells

OUTSIDE CELL

30

release lectins

31
Q

3 results of complement system activation

A

increased phagocytosis
histamine is released
formation of a membrane attack complex

32
