patho 1 Flashcards
(Integrins)
LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18), Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18), P150 (CD11c/CD18), VLA-4.
p selectin stimulated by
histamine, thrombin
e selectin and ICAM, stimulated by
cytokine TNF and IL-1
increased affinity of integrins
chemokines, C5a, Platlet activating factor
L selectin on leukocyte binds to
GlyCAM-1, CD-34
chemokine that attracts neutrophils to site if inflammation
IL-8
examples of chemotactic factors
1- bacterial products - N-formyl methionine termini 2- C5a 3- LTB4 4- IL-8 5- HETE
chemotactic factors also participate in
1- increase induction of adhesion molecules of EC 2- opening of integrins on leukocytes 3- induces locomotion 4- degranulation of lysosomal enzymes 5- production of AA metabolites
example of opsonins
C3b, IgG, collectins
Inflammasome
a multiprotein complex in the cytoplasm that recognizes products of dead cells such as urea –> lead to activation of caspases-1 –> secretion of biologically active IL-1
Mammalian cells are not recognized by mannose receptors because
they have salilic acid and N-acetyl galactoseamine
protective proteins that neutralize free radicals are
transferrin, ceruloplasmin, catalse, superoxide dismutase, glutathione
Acid proteases
needs low ph as in phagolysome
Neutral proteases effects
✓ Elastases, collagenases, and cathepsin.
✓ Cleave C3 and C5 producing C3a & C5a.
✓ Generate bradykinin like peptides.
antiproteases
1- alpha 2 macroglobulin
2- alpha 1 antitrypsin
(LAD1)
CD18 unit of integrin (MAC1, LFA1) – CD18 deficiency results in firm adhesion issues.
LAD2
Sialyl-Lewis X –Causes rolling issues.
CGD (Chronic Granulomatous Disease), X-linked
Membrane component of NADPH oxidase. Results in: multi granulomas formation all over the body.
CGD, autosomal recessive
Cytoplasmic component of NADPH oxidase
MPO (Myeloperoxidase) deficiency
Affected/Absent MPO-H2O2 system
Chediak-Higashi disease
Organelle trafficking inhibit the killing ability by leukocytes by the inhibition of the fusion of vacuoles results in: abnormalities in platelets & albinism
