cytokines
Development of lymphiod and myeloid cells are influenced by hormonal signaling molecule
-produced in bone marrow
- they stimulate stem cell growth, poliferation, and differentiation into particular cell type.

circulating granulocytes that are also known as polymorphonulear leukocytes (polys or PMNs)
-60%-80% of the WBC count.
-they have two to five nuclear lobes and coarse, clumped chromatin
-arise from bone marrow stem cells.
least to most mature
neutrophil
myeloblast, promelocyte, band cell, and mature segmented neutrophiles.
-stored in bone marrow
-early responders to an acute bacterial infection and arise in large numbers verry quickly.
-phagocytes
-have recptors that bind to endothelial cells in areas of inflammation
L-selectins
are receptors allow neutrophils to stick and roll along the capillary surface.
Chemotactic factors
Neutrophiles are attracted to areas of inflamation and bacterial produces by chemotactic factors such as complement fragments and cytokines.
neutrophilia
-acute infection
-increase in the number of circulating neutropjils, occurs as bone marrow release stored neutrophils
"shift to the left normal"
bands (immature neutropiles)
lack of nuclear segmentation
chemical mediators
free radicals, defensins, and proteolytic enzyme such as elastase.
-damage tissue during inflamation response
Eosinophils
-circulating ganulocytes that have two nuclear lobes.
-1%-6% of WBC count
-mature in bone marrow
-arise from meloid stem cells
-increase w/ an allergic reaction and infecction by intestinal parasites.
-primary role is to kill parasitic helminths (worms)
chemical mediators
-lysosomal enzymes, peroxidase, prostaglandins and leukotrienes.
--inflammation
`
Helminths worms
-they produce specialized molecules such as major basic protiens and eocinophil cationic proteins.
-they recognized helminths that have be opsonized (coated) w/IgE antibody. They bind to the IgE and release their stored chemicals on the surface and kill.
Basophils and mast cells
-chacterized by granules.
-0%-2% WBC count
-basophils circulate in the vascular systme
-mast cells circulate in connective tissue, expecially around blood vessels and under mucosal surface.
-they have IgE receptors that allow them to bind and display IgE antibodies on their surface.
-antigen binding to the IgE antibodies, mast cells and basophils release granules (degranulate) containing proinflammatory chemicals.
chemical mediators
histamine, platelet-activating factor, and other vasoactive amines.
monocytes and macrophages
-from the bone marrow stem cell of the myeloid region.
-5% WBC count
-can phagocytis many organisms
Fc receptor
receptos help macrophages locate antigens that have been coated by antibodies.
-they bind to part of an antibody called the constant fragment or Fc.
Complement
-recptors for the complement component C3b.
-Complement, like antibodies,they can coat antigen and make it more recognizable to macrophages.
Oponization
coating of antigen by antibodies or by complement.
integrins receptors
bind to proteins in the extracellular matrix and help macrophages target to certain areas.
Selectins and integrins receptors
help macrophages stick to capillary walls, enter and move through tisssue.
macrophages cytokins
coordinate the activities of other cells
- IL-1,IL-6 IL-12 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha).
-promote inflamation
-activity of neutrophils and lymphocytes.
Macrophages proteins that break down tissue
(secreation)
collagenase, elastase, plasminogen activator
Macrophages stimulate growth of new granulation tissue
(secreation)
fibroblast growth factor, angiogenic factors.
Macrophages antigen presentation
-For T cells to recognize antigens, these antigens must be first be processed and presented on the surface of an antigen-presenting cell such as a dendritic cells, macrophages, or B cell.
- the engulf the antigen and display the antigen complex on its surface, where T lymphocytes can recognize and become activated.
Lymphocyte NK cell
-not dependent of thymus development
-innate immune cells b/c they can effectively kill tumor cells and virally infected cells w/out previous exposure.
-can respond to variety of antigens and therefore not specific for a particular antigen.
-they target virally infected cells and tumor cells
antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC)
-recognize antibody-coated target cells w/ their Fc receptors.
