25
what are the phases to pathogen immune response
1. recognition phase 2. activation phase 3. effector phase
26
immune cells distinguish normal body cells as self and pathogen as non self
recognition phase of pathogen immune response
27
the appropriate members of the immune response team are mobilized for action
activation phase of pathogen immune response
28
the mobilized cells and molecules called effectors attempt to eliminate the invader
effector phase of pathogen immune response
29
nonspecific defenses against disease
innate immunity
30
resistance against a specific pathogen
adaptive immunity
31
what are the physical surface barriers
skin and mucous membranes
32
both dry surface and sebum skin inhibit growth of a ___________
pathogen
33
does sebum produce a high or low pH
low
34
what type of physical surface barriers remove pathogens
mucous membranes
35
these mucous membranes (physical surface barriers) help clear out bacteria
cilia
36
these mucous membranes (physical surface barriers) trap the invaders
mucus
37
what are the chemical surface barriers
bile, defenses, lysozyme, complement, and interferon
38
what do chemical surface barriers do
kill the pathogen
39
what is bile made up of
lactic acid and fatty acids
40
what are the antimicrobial proteins
defenses, lysozyme, complement, and interferon
41
these are a group of proteins produced in the liver and circulate the blood
complement
42
what are the cellular surface barriers
leukocytes and tissue microbiome
43
what are leukocytes
white blood cells
44
monocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils are what
leukocytes
45
leukocytes perform ____________ and create inflammatory responses
phagocytosis
46
what type of cells are phagocytic white blood cells
monocytes, dendritic cells, and neutrophils
47
what do monocytes mature into
macrophages
48
these are the first white blood cell an invader will encounter because they reside right below the skin
dendritic cells
49
these are granulocytes and are the highest percent of white blood cells circulating
neutrophils
50
what are the two innate immunity types
inflammatory response and phagocytosis
51
when are cellular and molecular defenses activated
when surface barriers are breached
52
bacteria gave an ______________ that macrophages can detect in our body as foreign as well as peptidoglycan
endotoxin
53
a mechanism to clear microbes from infected tissues
pathocytosis
54
the capture and digestion of foreign particles
phagocytosis
55
who performs phagocytosis
macrophages/monocytes, neutrophils, and dendritic cells
56
what are the four steps of phagocytosis
1. attachment 2. ingestion 3. digestion 4. egestion
57
what step of phagocytosis is the receptor recognized
attachment
58
what step of phagocytosis does the phagosome engulf the bacterial
ingestion
59
what step of phagocytosis does the fusion of lysosomes with phagosome and bacterial cell is killed through the activity of lysosomal enzymes and other toxic products occur in
digestion
60
when are the bacterial debris eliminated, bacterial cell is recycled, and the microbial fragments are placed on membrane receptor proteins
egestion
61
what initiates phagocytosis and secretes cytokines
macrophages
62
these releases histamine
mast cells
63
this prevents the spread of a pathogen
fibrin
64
when capillary cell walls dilate, what happens
edema, heat, redness, and pain
65
what attracts phagocytes to the site of injury
chemokine
66
cytokines produced by some leukocytes and fragments from pathogens
pyrogens
67
what affects the hypothalamus
pyrogens
68
what temperature do pathogens prefer
normal body temp
69
a series of 30 proteins that are produced in the liver and circulate in the bloodstream and tissues
complement
70
what happens when complements are activated
set off a massive cascade reaction
71
puts cells in an antiviral state that gives cells protection and doesn't allow other cells that are not antiviral to reproduce
interferons
72
what produces interferons
viral infected cells
73
what happens when interferons alert neighboring cells to infection
1. macrophage activation 2. production of antiviral proteins to interfere with RNA viral reproduction 3. helps to prevent the infection from spreading
