| this chemical mediator attracts cells to the site | chmokine
🗑
|
||||
| this chemical medator caues chemotaxis and activates PMN | platelet activating factor (PAF)
🗑
|
||||
| this chemical mediator increases CAM, fever, and cytokines | TNF
🗑
|
||||
| this chemical mediator causes cell movement, damage, and repair of tissue | enzymatic mediators
🗑
|
||||
| these facilitate cell to cell and cell to matrix interactions, including the necessary interactions between leukocytes and endothelial cells that allow these cells to infiltrate the tissues during inflammation. | Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs)
🗑
|
||||
| these consist of proteins and glycoproteins, grouped into families iwth similar strucutres, important in cell trafficking and migration, and crutial to the development of inflammation | cell adhesion molecules (CAMs)
🗑
|
||||
| these CAMs bind carbohydrates: they are found on leukocytes, and activated endothelium | selectins. types include L-selectins, P-selectin, E-selectin
🗑
|
||||
| these CAMs bind to selectins. they are found on HEV, mucosal lymphoid tissue venules, and endothelium | vascular addressins. one ex is CD34
🗑
|
||||
| these CAMs bind to ICAMs and extracellular matrix: they are found on lymphocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, and dendritic cells | integrins. examples are LFA-1, CR3
🗑
|
||||
| these CAMs bind integrins: found on T-cells, APC, activated endothelium | immunoglobulin superfamily: example is CD2
🗑
|
||||
| these recognize common molecular patterns. they are encoded in germ line genes, found on many cell types, and recognition is important to the adaptive immune response | pattern recognition receptors (PRR) ex: "toll like receptors" TLL
🗑
|
||||
| a process of engulfing particles. primary phagocytic cells are the neutrophils, macrophages, and some dendritic cells. There is intracellular killing via oxygen dependent and independent mechanisms | phagocytosis
🗑
|
||||
| when a phagocyte engulfs an pathogen, the layer that forms around the pathogen is called this | phagosome
🗑
|
||||
| during phagocytosis, when the phagosome is surrounded by granules, it forms this structure | phagolysosome
🗑
|
||||
| this is a substance that enhances phagocytosis and consists of acute phase proteins, complement proteins, and antibodies | opsonins
🗑
|
||||
| some examples of acute phase proteins (opsonins) are: | C reactive protein: CRP, mannose binding lectin: MBL, fibrinogin, serum amyloid proteins: SAA, complement system proteins
🗑
|
||||
| what are types of cytokines | type I (Interferon alpha and beta) and type II interferons (interferon gamma)
🗑
|
||||
| the primary role of this interferon is mostly to produce an anti-viral effect | type 1 interferons: alpha and beta
🗑
|
||||
| the primary role of this interferon is mostly to activate macrophages | type II interferons: interferon gamma
🗑
|
||||
| what are circulating inflammatory cells? | neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, platelets (never let monkeys eat bananna peels)
🗑
|
||||
| what are tissue resident inflammatory cells? | mast cells and macrophages
🗑
|
||||
| what are some killing mechanisms to eradicate pathogens? | acidification, toxic oxygen derived products, toxic nitrogen oxides, antimicrobial peptides, enzymes, competitors
🗑
|
||||
| this is a type of inflammatory cell that contains cytoplasmic granules which contain histamine. they synthesize many other inflammatory mediators | mast cell
🗑
|
||||
| this is a group of blood and cell surface proteins that are important to inflammatory and immune respponses. | complement proteins
🗑
|
||||
| what are some major biologic roles for complement? | to label microbial pathogens for destruction (opsonize), to disrupt the membranes of microbial pathogens leading to their lysis, and recruit inflammatory cells
🗑
|
||||
| which complement protein is found in the highest concentration? | C3
🗑
|
||||
| what are the three pathways of complement in order of which they are activated/ | alternative pathway, lectin pathway, classical pathway
🗑
|
||||
| all pathways of complement meet here to start the common pathway | the cleavage of C3 into C3a and C3b
🗑
|
||||
| what is the membrane attack complex made up of? | C5bC6C7C9(C9)n
🗑
|
||||
| which complement proteins are naaphylatoxins? | C3a, C5a
🗑
|
