[Recalls] Falalala - Immunology Flashcards
Secreted by T-cell after stimulation with specific antigen.
ANS: IFN γ
A group of serum proteins that can lyse gram negative bacteria that have antibody on their surface.
ANS: Complement
A product of macrophages that induces an antiviral state in neighboring cells.
ANS: Interferon α
Product of lipoxygenase pathway, attracts PMNs, macrophages and eosinophils.
ANS: Leukotriene B4
Released during degranulation of mast cells also attracts PMNs.
ANS: Eosinophil Chemotactic Factor
Activates alternative complement pathway to produce C5a ; attracts PMNs
ANS: Endotoxin
Serum proteins that can lyse gram-negative bacteria that have antibody on their surface
ANS: Complement
Destroys cell wall of gram-positive bacteria.
ANS: Lysozyme
A product of macrophages that induces an antiviral state in neighboring cells
ANS: interferon α
Secreted by T-cells after stimulation with a specific antigen.
ANS: Interferon γ
Has a half-life of approximately 21 days.
ANS: IgG
An elevated level in core blood may indicate fetal infection.
ANS: IgM
Predominant immunoglobulin in various secretions.
ANS: IgA
Predominant immunoglobulin in early (primary) response.
ANS: IgM
Crosses the placenta in humans.
ANS: IgG
Functions as helper in antibody response.
ANS: T-cell
Functions as suppressor cell.
ANS: T-cell
Phagocytize and processes antigen in the immune response.
ANS: macrophage
Targets B cells and cause growth and differentiation.
ANS: TNF-α
Targets B cells to cause class switching to IgA.
ANS: IL-5
Targets T-cells, B-cells or macrophages to cause lymphocyte activation or increase cell adhesion.
ANS: IL-1
Targets B-cells to cause class switching; promotes IgG and IgE production.
ANS: IL-4
Neutralizes virus activities.
ANS: C4
Stabilized by properdin.
ANS: C3bBb
Promotes opsonization.
ANS: C3b
Provokes release of neutrophils from bone marrow.
ANS: C3e
Transfer of skin from thigh to the face.
ANS: Autologous
Cadaver kidney transplant.
ANS: Allogenic
Bone marrow transplant from mother to daughter.
ANS: Allogenic
Bone marrow transfer between identical twins.
ANS: Syngeneic
Damages target cell membranes to cause cell death.
ANS: perforin
Anti-tumor factor that depresses protein synthesis in the target cell and causes the production of toxic free radicals.
ANS: tumor necrosis factor α
Causes the tumor cell to increase the concentration of MHC molecules in the membranes, thus, making them more susceptible to cytotoxic T-cell killing.
ANS: Interferon γ
Activates natural killer cells and cytotoxic T-cells to cause cancer remission.
ANS: Interleukin 2
Pattern recognition receptors include:
ANS: Lectin-like molecules
Anaphylaxis can be triggered by cross-linking of IgE receptors on
ANS: Mast cells
