Resumo de Recurso

Questão Responda
physical barriers in innate immunity solid skin nose hairs mucous membranes (respiratory & GI)
physical barriers in innate immunity liquid tears saliva mucus
physical barriers in innate immunity molecules defensins lysozyme stomach acid
lysozyme found in tears & mucus digests bacterial cell walls
physiological responses in innate immunity sneezing coughing release of soluble factors in inflammatory response
soluble factors in inflammatory response cytokines kinins vasoactive amines defensins
cytokines proteins binding receptor on target cell membrane alter target cell behavior alter body temperature (fever) fatigue & aches target endothelial cells & cells in blood
kinins trigger changes in blood vessels trigger release of neuropeptides activate sensory nerves (pain)
defensins on skin & mucosal surfaces tongue & cornea punch holes in bacterial cell membranes
bradykinin activates sensory nerves causing pain dilates blood vessels causing redness & heat increases vascular permeability causing swelling/edema
complement directly kills pathogens activates & recruits white blood cells causes tissue cells to release cytokines
pro-inflammatory triad IL-1, IL-6, TNF-alpha systemic inflammatory response
extravasation cytokines make white blood cells sticky white blood cells stick lightly to vessel walls white blood cells roll along endothelial cells leak near infection/injury site white cells move into inflamed area
three classes of cytokines chemokines interleukins (ILs) & interferons (IFNs) colony stimulating factors (CSFs)
chemokines small 1k-dalton conserved cystein patterns per subgroup stick to endothelial cells making gradient recruited cells undergo chemotaxis
chemotaxis moving along chemokine gradient
ILs & IFNs interleukins & interferons 10-30 Kd induce differentiation/proliferation of immature cells recruit/activate mature effector cells interferon from infected cells makes neighbors antiviral
inflammatory action on hypothalamus releases prostaglandin increases body temperature
inflammatory action on liver production of complement components upregulates glucose production
inflammatory action on bone marrow produces replacement white cells if chronic/relapsing, triggers bone resorption and over time, osteoporosis
