Test 1 Cells of the Immune System Flashcards
These lymphocytes protect against viruses, fungi, facultative organisms
T lymphocytes
To tell these apart on a blood smear, you must use a supravital stain
T lymphocytes
T lymphocytes play a role in humoral immunity by
cytokine production
T lymphocytes acount of what percent of peripheral blood leukoctes?
70-80%
These lymphocytes live in the lymph nodes and spleen
T lymphocytes
Thymosin helps these lymphocytes mature in the thymus
T lymphocytes
These lymphocytes produce cytokines which leads to the activation of B cells
Helper T lymphocytes
Helper T lymphocytes account for what percent of T lymphocytes?
40-60%
This is the surface marker on Helper T lymphocytes
CD4
These lymphocytes downregulate the immune response
Cytotoxic T cells
These lymphocytes can kill virus infected cells, tumor cells, or transplant tissue
Cytotoxic T cells
Perforin is used by which lymphocyte to kill other cells?
Cytotoxic T cells
The surface marker is on Cytotoxic T cells
CD8
These lymphocytes are activated by the release of cytokines
B lymphocytes
B lymphocytes are part of what kind of immunity?
B lymphocytes
These lymphocytes differentiate into plasma cells
B lymphocytes
B lymphocytes account for what percent of peripheral blood lymphocytes?
5-15%
B lymphocytes live in
the spleen and tonsils (50%)
B lymphocytes that do not become plasma cells usually become
Memory B cells
These cells rapidly produce antibody on a second exposure to an antigen (amnestic response)
Memory B cells
These cells gush antibody for 3-4 days
plasma cells
These cells are full of endoplastic reticulum
plasma cells
These cell differentiate when exposed to an antigen with Helper T cells (cytokines)
plasma cells
These cells have the same specificity from the cell it was derived from
plasma cells
These cells are attracted to opsonized particles
macrophages
These cells present T and B cells particles for destruction
macrophages
These cell produce enzymes, activate plasminogen, denature collagen
macrophages
Do macrophages produce complement components?
Yes, C1
This cell has an Fc receptor for antibodies
macrophages
This cell has a receptor for complement
macrophages
These cells have Fc receptor AND the ability to destroy tumor cells
Killer cells
These cells stimulate cytotoxic T cells
Helper T cells
These cells secrete lymphokines
Helper T cells
These cells DO NOT secrete lymphokines
Cytotoxic T cells
