Answer |
| SECOND LINE OF DEFENSE INHIBITS INVASION BY: | MICROORGANISMS |
| List the 5 major non specific defenses included in 2nd LINE: | Production of anti-microbial proteins, fever, inflammatory response, phagocytosis, & NK cells |
| NK cells AKA | null cells OR natural killer cells |
| Inflammatory process triggered by: | injury to body tissue |
| Inflammation helps in 3 ways: | 1. PREVENT spread of invaders. 2.INITIATE repair mechanism. 3. DISPOSE of cell debries & pathogens. |
| Four signs of inflammation are: | redness, heat, swelling & pain |
| Fifth POSSIBLE sign of inflammation is: | impairment of function |
| Inflammation begins with release of inflammatory chemicals into: | EXTRAcellular fluid from cells |
| The inflammatory response also includes the release of: | blood proteins |
| Some important inflammatory chemicals are: | Compliment sys proteins, Histamines, Kinins, Lymphokines, & prostaglandins (PG) |
| Inflammatory chemicals promote: | VASODILATION |
| VASODILATION causes | HYPEREMIA |
| HYPEREMIA is: | heat and redness |
| Some chemicals increase permeability of: | capillaries |
| EXUDATE is | fluid with proteins (clotting factors) |
| Pain associated w/inflammation comes from: | release of bacterial toxins & pressure from swelling |
| EDEMA helps 3 ways: | 1) ALLOWS ENTRY of clotting proteins 2)BRINGS IN lots of oxygen & nutrients 3) DILATES harmful substances |
| If the epithelial barrier is breached, what happens: | epithelial cells release B-DEFENSINS. |
| 2nd line of defense includes:3 | ANTI-MICROBIAL PROTEINS, DEFENSIVE cells & INFLAMMATION |
| ANTI-MICROBIAL PROTEINS are: | chemical weapons |
| DEFENSIVE CELLS attack: | all non self cells |
| EXUDATE causes: | swelling |
| CHEMO-TACTIC agents are: | inflammatory chemicals |
| B-DEFENSINS are: | broad spectrum antibiotics |
| Prevent-Dispose-Initiate refers to: | how inflammation helps |
| PG is AKA | Prostaglandins |
| Chemical Weapons are: | anti-microbial proteins |
| Inflammatory chemicals are: | chemo tactic agents |
