Mosby's Micro/Path: Immune System and Antibiotics Flashcards
(166 cards)
Name the cells involved in the acute inflammation stage of the innate immune response
neutrophils (polymorphnuclear leukoctyes) basophils mast cells natural killer cells (T cells) that kill tumor/viruses
Explain the inflammation types in the innate immune response
Acute inflammation
Chronic inflammation
Granulomatous inflammation (a form of chronic inflammation characterized by the presence of granulomas)
The result of acute inflammation is
a. complete resolution
b. scarring
c. abscess formation
if abscess enters soft tissue it is called
cellulitis
2 dentally significant formations of cellulitis include
Ludwig’s angina and cavernous sinus thrombosis
granulomas are areas the immune system walls off if phagocytes fail to destroy particles or microbes present in them.
- Tubercles are associated with granulomas involved in what infection ___
- Gumma are granulomas associated with what infection?
- TB Mycobacteria
2. Syphilis (treponema pallidum)
- Granulocytes are a category of white blood cells characterized by the presence of granules in their cytoplasm. They are also called _____ because of the varying shapes of the nucleus, which is usually lobed into ___segments. This distinguishes them from the mononuclear agranulocytes. In common parlance, the term polymorphonuclear leukocyte often refers specifically to neutrophil granulocytes,the most abundant of the granulocytes; the other types (eosinophils, basophils, and mast cells) have lower numbers. Granulocytes are produced via granulopoeisis in the bone marrow.
polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN, PML, or PMNL) three
monocytes are granular/agranular? how many lobes?
agranular and one lobe.
name the monocytes
All WBCs: macrophages, lymphocytes: T, B, natural killer cells,
the 2 types of acquired (specific) immunity are
cell mediated - t lymphocytes
humoral immunity- mediated by antibodies made by B cells
CD4+ T cells are __ cells
helper cells
CD8 T cells are __ cells
cytotoxic cells
- natural killer cells are found in __ immune system
2. cytotoxic T cells are found in __ immune system
1 innate
2. acquired
(CD4) helper t cells release which interleukins after it interacts with MHC class II
IL-4 and IL-5. This stimulates B cells and growth = to make antibodies.
CD8 cytotoxic and suppressor T cells recognize which MHC class
class I MHC molecules on antigen presenting cells
CD __ T cells are mainly for the recognition of bacterial antigens
CD4
CD __ T cells are mainly for the recognition of viral antigens
CD8
T cells are made in __ and mature in __
made by haematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow
most mature in thymus, some in tonsils
mononuclear cells: called __ in the blood and __ in the tissues
monocytes in blood and macrophage in tissue. when monocytes enter into tissue they mature into macrophages
mononuclear cells are produced in the
bone marrow
the presence of macrophages indicates __ inflammation
chronic
the body has an extensive network of ___ known as the reticuloendothelial system.
macrophages (REL system)
reticuloendothelial system: macrophage in the ___ are called dust cells/heart-failure cells
lungs
reticuloendothelial system: macrophage in the ___ are called Kupffer cells
liver
