What Fluids does the Immune System Involve?
|
-Extracellular Fluid (just outside cells)
-Reticuloendothelial System (connective tissue fluids and fibers) -Blood Stream -Lymphatic System |
|
|
What Tissues are in the Immune System?
|
-Primary Organs (BONE MARROW & THYMUS GLAND)
-Secondary Organs (lymph nodes, spleen, GALT) |
|
|
What Cells are involved in the Immune System?
|
-Blood Cells (formed by Homopoiesis)
Erythrocyte= Red blood cells Thrombocyte= Platelets Leukocyte= White blood cells |
|
|
What is Histamine?
|
produced by mast cells and basophils during inflammation and ALLERGY.
increased permeability |
|
|
What is Interleukin 1?
|
-produced by macrophages.
-produced during specific immune response. -stimulates T cells and B cells |
|
|
What is Interleukin 2?
|
-Produced by Helper T cells
-Produced during specific immune response -Stimulates proliferation of T and B cells |
|
|
First Line of Defense:
|
Physical Barrier- outer layer of skin tight layer of epithelial cells
Mechanical Barrier- movement of cilia flushing with urine or feces Chemical Barrier- Chemicals associated with other barriers Genetic Barrier- many microbes will only infect one species |
|
|
Second Line of Defense:
|
slightly more internalized nonspecific system of protective cells, fluids, and mechanisms.
Inflammation- rubor, tumor, calor (heat), dolo (pain) Phagocytosis- large solid particles are engulfed by a cell The Complement System- Fever Interferon- inhibit the spread of viral particles Natural Killer Cells(stimulated by cytokines) |
|
|
Third line of Defense:
|
acquired specific immunity
Provides current infections or disease and long term immunity |
|
|
What Cells are needed for long term immunity?
|
Memory Cells
|
|
|
What is Natural Active Immunity?
|
Getting the infection.
person gets the disease and develops own antibodies and memory cells |
|
|
What is Natural Passive Immunity?
|
mother to child (temporary)
|
|
|
What is Artificial Active Immunity?
|
Vaccination
|
|
|
What is Artificial Passive Immunity?
|
immunotherapy (recieving someone elses antibodies to protect due to exposure to disease or as a treatment)
|
|
|
Staphylococcus Aureus?
Disease? Symptoms? Major Vaccines? |
1) Food Poisoning-
-vomiting, diarrhea, cramps -resolves itself 2)Scalded Skin Syndrome -painful red flush over body, first blister then desquamation. -NOT penicillin 3) Toxic Shock Syndrome -high fever, vomiting, diarrhea, rash, dizziness, aches -NOT Penicillin 4) Super Staph -treatment=vancomycin |
|
|

Disease? Symptoms? Major Vaccines? |
PENICILLIN
1) Pyoderma -burning, itchy papules that break into form highly contagious yellow crusts 2) Necrotizing Fasciitis -raised red area around cut, fever, severe pain/swelling 3)Scarlet Fever -high fever, bright red rash over face and body 4) Rheumatic Fever -carditis, arthritis, nodules under skin, fever 5)acute glomerulonephritis -low urine output, swelling hands and feet, high blood pressure |
