|
| 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 |
