  Side A   Side B
1
interferon made of- where comes from- purpose-
 
protein molecules -virally infected cells  -exit infected cells that committ suicide...
2
leukocytes-
 
-white blood cells
3
neutrophils highest during what- purpose- purpose 2- purpose 3- special function-
 
-bacterial infections -phagocytize pathogens, -add electron to 02 to make peroxide which...
4
monocytes function- develop into-
 
-to destroy pathogens -develop into macrophages
5
basophils special function-
 
-diapedesis
6
Lymphocytes types- purpose-
 
-B cells and T cells -immune response to specific pathogens in humoral immunization
7
B cells maturation- purpose-
 
-mature in bone marrow -have receptors to antigen epitopes. when specific antigen is found...
8
antigens purpose-
 
-antigens are chemical molecules that bind to lymphocytes B and lead to an immune response
9
antibodies types- purpose-
 
-IgM, IgG, IgA, IgE IgD when binded by antigen they activate immune responses
10
immune responses activated by antibodies-
 
-complement, inflammation, neutralization, opsonization, direct killing, agglutination, cytotoxicity
11
complement cascade starts how- process- antibodies- outcomes-
 
-from opsonization and inflammation as well as ag and ab binding -protein in serum comes together...
12
inflammation starts- process- outocmes-
 
damaged tissues and release of histamines -dilate blood vessels to increase blood flow and...
13
phagocytosis starts how-process-outcome-
 
-from chemotaxis by organisms in inflammation-phagocytotic cells surround pathogens and microbes-kill...
14
humoral immunity consists of-most effective against-starts how-process-antibodies-outcomes-
 
-B cells creating antibodies-useful against virus, bacterias, and toxins-apc antigen processing...
15
cell mediated immunity best for-consists of-process-outcome-
 
-best for fighting worms cancer, fungi-starts from exposure of antigenantigen processing cells...
16
immediate hypersensitivity starts from-1st reaction known as-2nd reaction effects and process-antibodies-outcome-
 
-exposure to allergen antigens-sensitization. as IgE binds to masat cells baso and eosino-allergen...
17
cytotoxic hypersensitivity from-process-antibodies-outcome-
 
-blood type error-body releases anti opposite of given antibody which activates complement -Igm...
18
autoimmune disease cause-process-antibody-outcome-
 
-exposure to foreign antigen similar to our own-results in antibodys being created against...
19
Functions of antibodies IgM-IgG-igaigeigd-
 
-most efficient for complement and inflammation-most common one. can leave blood vessels. help...
20
opsonization-
 
-changing antigen surface to increase phagocytosis 
21
agglutination-
 
-causes clumping of antigens and makes the precipitate, increases chance to be phagocytized...
22
test for allergic reaction-
 
-test for IgE
23
tcells types-
 
-helper t cells-regulatory t cells
24
helper t cells purpose-secrete-what disease renders them ineffective-
 
-regulate entire immune system-secrete cytokines (messengers) that tell body immune what is...
25
regulatory t cells purpose-
 
-suppressimmune system to prevent autoimmune disease
