USMLE - Goljan, Chapter 3 Immunopathology

        Help!  

Question
Answer

🗑
HLA A, B, C   Belong to MHC class I group; present on all cells except RBCs; recognized by CD8 T cells and NK cells  
🗑

🗑
Name 3 functions of CD4 T cells   secrete IL-2 --> proliferation of CD4/CD8 T cells; secrete gamma-interferon --> activate macrophages; help B cells become antibody-producing plasma cells  
🗑
What do CD8 T cells do?   kill virus-infected, tumor (neoplastic), or foreign cells (donor)

🗑
anaphylaxis -- what type of hypersensitivity rxn?   Type 1  
🗑
Drug allergy to penicillin -- what type of hypersensitivity rxn?   Type 1  
🗑
Mnemonic for Type 1 Hypersensitivity Rxns   ANAPHYLAXIS Annie's ASTHMA FLAREs when her FOOD contains HAY. FLARE = wheal/flare (insect stings, allergy testing); FOOD = food allergies; HAY = hayfever  
🗑
Mnemonic for Type 2 Hypersensitivity Rxns   The BULLdog E.F. ARF the II HAd GOOD TaPas, while DuM MaG-Gie PAssed on them.

🗑
Name the complement-independent diseases associated with Type 2 Hypersensitivity reactions   Complement-independent: DM=Diabetes Mellitus; MG=Myasthenia Gravis; G=Graves; PA=Pernicious Anemia.  
🗑
Type II Hypersensitivity Rxns   Antibody-dependent  
🗑
ABO mismatch -- what type of hypersensitivity rxn?   Type II - antibody dependent, complement-dependent, by lysis (MAC)  
🗑
Hyperacute transplantation rejection -- what type of hypersensitivity rxn?   Type II - antibody dependent, complement dependent, by lysis (MAC)  
🗑
Goodpasteur's Syndrome -- what type of hypersensitivity rxn?   Type II - antibody dependent, complement dependent, by lysis (MAC)  
🗑
Warm IgG autoimmune hemolytic anemia -- what type of hypersensitivity rxn?   Type II - antibody dependent, complement dependent, by phagocytosis (macrophages)  
🗑
ABO and Rh disease of the newborn -- what type of hypersensitivity rxns?   Type II - antibody dependent, complement dependent, by phagocytosis (macrophages)  
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
