Phagocytes-1 Flashcards
Monocytes differentiate from
precursors during hematopoeiss in bone marrow
CCL2/MCP-1
MCP-1=Monocyte chemotactic factor-1 Attracts monocytes into circulation and into tissues
activated monocytes secrete
GM- CSF M-G-CSF M-CSF
Monocytes are precursors of
macrophages
Products of Lysosomes
Defensins-permeabilize bacterial and fungal membranes Lactoferrin-binds to microorganism Lysozyme-destroys muramic acid in cell wall. Meloperoxidase which makes hypocholirte, halogenates bacterial cell walls
Product of NADPH oxidase activation
superoxide anion Hydroxyl radical hyrdoxyl ion hydrogen peroxide All are toxic to the pathogen
Hypochlorite
fromed from hydrogen peroxide but needs myeloperoxidase enzyme for the reaction.
product of iNOS activation
NO plus other reactive nitrogen intermediates
activated macrophages function as
antigen presenting cells for CD+ T cells
chemokines secreted by macrophages
IL-8 CXCL8 MCP-1 CCL2
Cytokines secreted by macrophages
IL 1,6,12, 15, 18 TNF
IL-8/CXCL8
Target: Neutorphils Role: Mobilization and chemotaxis to sites of inflammation
Production and Secrtion of IL-1 and IL-18 requires two signals
Signal 1- activation of NFkappaB following PAMP-PRR interaction which leads to transcription and production of Pro-IL-1 and pro-IL18 Signal 2 activation of NALP3 inflammasome by various DAMPS
DAMPS
molecules released during tramua or cell death reactive oxygen species ATP Cholesterol crystals Free fatty acids and endogenous molecules.
PAMPS
pathogen associated molecular pattern, found on the pathogen and signal the PRR’s on the macrophage considered a PPR ligand.
