Immuno&Microbiology

Immuno and Microbiology

QuestionAnswer
What are phases of an adaptive Immune Response? Recognition->Activation->Pathogen elimination ->Contraction -> Memory
What are two types of immune response systems? Cell-mediated and adaptive immune response.
What are two principle types of reactions of the innate immune system? 1. Inflammation 2. Anti-viral defense
What is the most abundant cell innate immunity? Neutrophils
What is the sequence of events in the migration of blood leukocytes to sites of infection? Rolling-> Integrin activation by chemokines-> Stable adhesion -> Migration through endothelium
How they(Neutrophils,Monocyte/Macrophage) destroy ingested microbes Internalize microbes to phagosome->phagosome fuse with lysosome, become phagolysosome-> 3 enzymes for killing
What are three enzymes within Innate immune? Phagocyte oxidase(ROS), NO, and lysosomal proteases
What does NK cells infected by? IFN-gama
What are two types of receptors of NK cell? activating and inhibitory receptor
What are steps of complement system? Inflammation, opsonization and phagocytosis, lysis of microbes
What are the role of innate immunity in stimulating adaptive immune responses? Provides 2nd signal for T and B cell through upregulate costimulatory molecule and cytokines important for T/B proliferation and differentiation
What are Professional Antigen Presenting Cells(APC) is major type? Dendritic cells
What is Human MHC are called? human leukocytes antigents(HLAs)
How many types of MHC? ClassII and Class I
Class II Responsive to T-Cells is CD4+ T cells
Class I Responsive T-Cells is CD8+ T cells
What are features of peptide binding to MHC molecules? broad specific, displace one peptide at a time, bind only peptide, intracellular assembly, stable surface bound peptide, very slow off-rate
Phases of T Cell responses? antigen recognition->Activation->Clonal expansion->Differentiation->Effector function->Memory cell generation
What is the two costimulatory molecules? B7(APC) : CD28(T-cell) ; CD40(APC): CD40 ligand(T-Cell)
What are CD4+ T-cell differentiation? TH1, TH2, TH17
What does CD4+ help T cells? activate phagocytes to destroy microbes residing in the Vesicles of these phagocytes
What does CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTLs)? kill any cell containing microbes or microbial proteins in the cytoplasm, thereby eliminating the reservoir of infection
Effector functions of CD8+ cytotoxic lymphocytes? Granzymes, and Perforin
What Naive B cells express? IgM and IgD
What are isotype switching? IgG, IgA, IgE
Cytokine produce by Helper T cells: IL-4 -> IgE->defense against helminths, mast cell degranulation
Cytokine produce by Helper T cells: TGFB, BAFF-> IgA->mucosal immunity: neutralization of microbes and toxins
Cytokine produce by Helper T cells IFN-gama ->IgG -> neutralization of microbes and toxins, opsonization and phagocytosis of microbes
GALT underlying connective tissue: Lamina propria, containing peyer's patch
Outer epithelial barrier serves essential functions to prevent microbial invasion
Distant draining lymph nodes where adaptive immune responses to invading microbes are initiated and amplified
What are intestinal epithelial cells(innate immunity)? Goglet, epithelial, M cells, Paneth cells
Mucins glycosylated protein prevent microbes contact
Defensins TLRs and NLRs
DC and Macrophage killing activities, secrete anti-infl. cytokines, IL-10
Adaptive Immunity IgA and TH17
Immune Evasion by Extracellular Bacteria? Neisseria Gonorrhoeae, E.Coli, Salmonella typhymurium
What is Vaccine? A vaccine is a suspension of organisms or factions of organisms that are used to unduce immunity.
What is the principle of vaccine? Adaptive immune response has memory.
Immunological tolerance: unresponsiveness to self antigen, a lack of response to antigens that is induced by exposure
autoimmunity: immune system attack individual's own cells and tissues
central tolerance: immunological tolerance to self antigens induced int eh generative(central)lymphoid organs
Peripheral tolerance: immunological tolerance to self antigens induced in the peripheral tissues
Anergy functional inactivation of T lymphocytes that occurs when these cells recognize antigens without adequate levels of the costimulators(second signals, B7-CD28)
Pneumococci Capsular polysaccharide inhibits phagocytosis
Staphylococci production of catalase, which breaks down reactive oxygen intermediates
Streptococci M protein blocks C3 binding to organims, and C3b binding to complement receptors
Psedudomonas Synthesis of modifified LPS that resists action of peptide antibiotics

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
