Defenses
How many lines of defenses are there
3 lines
What does PAMP stand for?
Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (P A M Ps)
What does MP stand for?
Mononuclear phagocyte system
What does the whole blood consist of
Blood cells, plasma, serum and Hemotopiesis.
C3 protein, either free or bound to a pathogen membrane, is hydrolyzed into two fragments, C3b and C3a, what stage is this?
initiation
any barrier that blicks ivasion at the portal of entry is what line of defense?
the first line
What does PRRs stand for?
Pattern recognition receptors
what are primary lymphatic organs?
sites of immune cell birth and maturation
true or false: Stem cells are primary precursor of new blood cells maintained in the bone marrow
true
what is the second stage of the complement Cascade?
Activation and cascade
which line of defense provides long term immunity?
thrird line
Markers that many different kinds microbes have in common is known as?
PAMPs
name examples of secondary lymphatic organs
Lymph nodes
Spleen
Associated lymphoid tissues
what is Hematopoiesis?
production of blood cells
C5b fragment is now free to form a complex with C6, C7, and C8 called the membrane attack complex (M A C), what stage is this?
Polymerization
this line of defense includes inflammation and phagocytosis
the second line
true or false: PRRs are not recognized by PAMPs
False
what vessels are found in high numbers in the hands, feet, and around the areola of the breast
Lymphatic Vessels
These cells are vitally important to nonspecific and specific immunity
White blood cells
what leads to inappropriate flow of water and ions in and out of the cell, and eventual of the lysis of the cell
Membrane Attack
a cellular and chemical system that comes immediately into play if infections make it past to the surface defenses is known as
second line of defense
what is used by host cells with important roles in the innate immunity of the second line of defense
PRRs
Act as a “drain-off” system for the inflammatory response, what system does this
the Lymphatic System
true or false: leukocytes are also known as White blood cells
true
What is a Classical complement pathway?
initiated by binding to the antibodies that are already bound to microbes
