53 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
1.1

central immune organs
immune cell generation and maturation
1.2

peripheral organs
antigen recognition and immune cell activation
1.3

lymph organ
carries antigen to nodes and lymphocytes back to blood
1.4

pluripotent stem cells
precursor for blood-forming (hematopoietic) system
1.5

lymphocytes
B, T, NK
1.6

myeloid
monocytes
macrophages
dendritic cells
granulocytes
1.7

immunogen
substance that induce immune response
1.8

antigen (Ag)
substance that react w/ the product of the immune response
1.9

autoreactive
- reactive to both self and non-self
- bind strongly to other cells of the body
- eliminated
- deletion, anergy (unresponsive), suppresion
1.10

tolerant/educated
no response to self
1.11

B lymphocytes
make and secrete antibodies (antigen receptor)
1.12

cytotoxic
T cells killing the pathogens
1.13

dendrites/macrophages
take antigens and break them up to pieces (processing) and present them to T cells
- professional antigen presenting cells
1.14

macrophages, neutrophils
active in early immune response => phagocytic cells
1.15

basophil, eosinophil, mast cells
inflammation
1.16

CB3
T cell receptor, TCR
1.17

antibody reagents
used in the lab to tell cells apart between their cell surface proteins
1.18

perforin
create hole in the membrane of target cell and kill it
1.19

Th1
- cytokine interferon-gamma
- activation of macrophages
1.20

cell surface molecules distinguish cells by:
function, stages of differentiation and activation, secreted small molecules (cytokines)
1.21

Th2
interleukin 10 => B lymphocyte/antibody (humoral) response
1.22

antigen presentation
MHC binds to a piece of the pathogen (antigenic peptide) and brings it up to the cell surface => visible to the immune system
1.23

interaction of CD3 & TCR
sends activation signal into T lymphocytes to activate and proliferate
1.24

CD4/8 -> MHC
T lymph and MHC adhere together long enough for signaling
1.25 CD28 -> CD80/86 (B7)
naive T cell need second signal to become activated
1.26

immunologic synapse
small area b/w cells that contain lots of receptors and ligands
- brought on by CD28-CD80/86 (B7)
1.27

CHEMOKINES
a cytokine that causes cell to migrate
1.28

cytokines
when cell receive activating signal => they release these little proteins that are hormone like => bind cell surface receptors on a variety of cells => stimulate lots of things
1.29

systemic cytokines
cause systemic effects: fever, shock, liver produce acute phase proteins
1.30

effector cells
fight infection non-specific
1.31

toll-like receptors on macrophages
recognize molecular patterns not found in human but are in microorganisms
1.32

complement systems
antibacterial proteins
1.33

antibody receptor, structure of
2 identical antigen binding arms
1.34

activation of B cells
- B meet T in lymph node
- B antibody interact w/ activated T thru cell surface or cytokines
1.35

cytotoxic T lymphocytes
- helped by helper T
- goes to the infection site and destroy pathogen
1.36

IgG
- most common antibody
- transfered from mother -> fetus
1.37

IgA
- passed via breast milk
- secretions: lung, gut
1.38

IgE:
parasites, mast cells, allergy
1.39

IgM
bind to microbes
1.40

IgD
B cell maturation
1.41

complement cascade
- series of blood proteins bind onto antigen/antibody in sequential order
- each step, protein is cleaved, enzyme and small peptide released
- stimulate inflammation
1.42

C1
- first protein in complement cascade
- detect antibody bound to antigen
1.43

membrane attack complex
- if antibody bound to cell => final stage is membrane attack complex that can attack the cell membrane of pathogen
1.44

immune response for parasites
- IgE antibody
- mast cell, eosinophills, basophils
1.45

immune response for intracellular vesicles
macrophage activation
1.46

immune response for intracellular cytoplasmic
NK cells

cytotoxic T lymphocytes
1.47

immune response for extracellular
IgG antibody

complement

phagocytosis
1.48

DiGeorge syndrome
- deletion chromosome 22
- lack of thymic development
- T lack place to mature
1.49

lupus (SLE)
attack chromatin./DNA-protein
1.50

Type I hypersensitivity:
- allergy, asthma, systemic analphylaxis
- mast cells and IgE
- bee sting
1.51

Type II hypersensitivity
- penicillin allergy
- IgG, complement and phagocytic cells
I.52

Type III hypersensitivity
- IgG
