QuestionAnswer
In process of phagocytosis, step 1 is: ADHESION
Adhesion allows the production of : VESICLE
Vesicle is a membranous sac
The vesicle will surround &? enclose the pathogen
A PHAGOSOME is: the vesicle plus the pathogen
After the vesticle & pathogen become a phagosome, they are: pulled into cytoplasm
Lysosome (s) attach to sac, which is then re-named as a: PHAGOLYSOSOME
Lysosomes release enzymes into PHAGOLYSOSOME which: digest the pathogen
NK cells primary targetwhat kind of cells: abnormal self cells
NK cells are a small, distinctive group of: granular lumphocytes
Granular lumphocytes police the body in: blood and lumph fluid
are granular lymphocytes specific or non specific? non specific
NK cells act spontaneously against target by recognition of: changes to cell surface
Example of target NK cells is the: presence of tumor-specific antigens on cancer cell membranes
Are NK cells phagocytes: No
NK cells release: CYTOLYTIC CHEMICALS (proforins)
CYTOLYTIC chemicals destroy the: cell membrane of pathogens
The NK cells golgi structure actually rotate liKe: gun turrets and fire thheir lysosomes
ANTI-MICROBIAL PROTEINS are classified as: INTERLEUKINS (formerly cytokines)
Interleukins are AKA: IL's
Interleukins are secreted proteins that can indude cells to: proliferate, differentiate or do both
Two antimicrobial proteins stand out: Interferon (IFN) Group and the Complement System
INTERFERON (IFN) acts as an: early warning system for surrounding, uninfected cells
Cells infected with viruses release these proteins: INTERFERON
INTERFERONs can act locally as: paracrines
Interferons can act globally as: hormones
Is the action of interferons specific or non specific? not specific
The response of interferons is: a generalized anti-viral alert
The Interferons are a family of: related proteins productd by a variety of body cells
The interferons include: 3 Lymphocytes, Other leukocytes and fibroblasts
