Chemotaxis - CORRECT ANSWER Cell movement that occurs in response to chemical
stimulus

Phagocytosis - CORRECT ANSWER "cell eating"
1. opsonization and adherence
2. engulfment - WBC surrounds and ingests Ag
3. Fusion of phagosome with lysosome
4. destruction - phagosome digested by lysozyme, H202, acids, and other toxic chemicals inside
the lysosomes
5. egestion

Hypersensitivity Type 1:_____ - CORRECT ANSWER Allergic reaction

Hypersensitivity: Type 1
Mediated by ______ - CORRECT ANSWER IgE

Hypersensitivity: Type 1
Inflammation due to _____________ - CORRECT ANSWER mast cell degranulation

Hypersensitivity: Type 1
local symptoms - CORRECT ANSWER itching, rash

Hypersensitivity: Type 1
systemic symptoms - CORRECT ANSWER wheezing

Hypersensitivity: Type 1
most dangerous form - CORRECT ANSWER anaphylactic reaction-systemic response-
hypotension, severe bronchoconstriction

Hypersensitivity: Type 1
main treatment ___________ - CORRECT ANSWER epinephrine

Hypersensitivity Type 2: _________________ - CORRECT ANSWER Cytotoxic reaction;
tissue specific (example: thyroid tissue) hapten causes mediation of IgE or IgM

Hypersensitivity: Type 2
Primary effector cells involved - CORRECT ANSWER macrophages

Hypersensitivity: Type 2

,can cause ____________ - CORRECT ANSWER tissue damage or alter function

Hypersensitivity: Type 2
example of altered function - CORRECT ANSWER graves disease (hyperthyroidism)-example
of altering thyroid function, but does not destroy thyroid tissue

Hypersensitivity: Type 2
example of tissue damage - CORRECT ANSWER incompatible blood type-example of
cell/tissue damage that occurs; severe transfusion reaction occurs and the transfused erythrocytes
are destroyed by agglutination or complement-mediated lysis

Hypersensitivity: Type 3 - CORRECT ANSWER Not organ specific
Immune complex-mediated hypersensitivity reactions
-the antibody binds to soluble antigen outside the cell surface and the complex is deposited in the
tissues

Hypersensitivity: Type 3
Examples - CORRECT ANSWER Rheumatoid arthritis - antigen/antibodies are deposited in the
joints

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) - very closely related to autoimmunity-antigen/antibodies
deposit in organs that cause tissue damage

Scope of damage of SLE - Type 3 autoimmune response - CORRECT ANSWER facial rash
confined to cheeks (malar rash)
discoid rash (raised patches, scaling)
photosensitivity
oral or nasopharyngeal ulcers
hematologic disorders
immunologic disorders
non-erosive arthritis of at lease 2 peripheral joints
serositis
renal disorder
neurologic disorder
ANA

Autoimmune diseases can be ______ - CORRECT ANSWER familial

Associations with particular autoimmune diseases have been identified for a variety of major
____________ or _____________ - CORRECT ANSWER histocompatibility complex (MHC)
alleles or non-MHC genes

Alloimmunity - CORRECT ANSWER AKA isoimmunity
immune system of one individual produces a reaction against tissues of another individual

,Alloimmunity examples - CORRECT ANSWER -Neonatal disease where the maternal immune
system becomes sensitized against antigens expressed by the fetus
-Transplant rejection
-Transfusion reaction

Hypersensitivity: Type 4 - CORRECT ANSWER T-cell mediated
delayed response

Does not involve antigen/antibody complexes

Hypersensitivity: Type 4
typical reaction - CORRECT ANSWER localized contact dermatitis
(symptoms usually occur a few days later)

Differentiating between type 1 and type 4 rash reactions - CORRECT ANSWER Type I:
IMMEDIATE hypersensitivity reactions, termed atopic dermatitis, are usually characterized by
widely distributed lesions

Type 4: contact dermatitis (DELAYED hypersensitivity) consists of lesions only at the site of
contact with the allergen -Example: poison ivy

How to treat Type 4 hypersensitivity rash - CORRECT ANSWER non-severe case of contact
dermatitis: tx with topical corticosteroid

How to treat emergent Type 1 anaphylactic reactions - CORRECT ANSWER epinephrine

Antihistamines act on _____________ - CORRECT ANSWER H1 receptors

Primary immune deficiency - CORRECT ANSWER congenital
-caused generally by a genetic abnormality
60% of cases, symptoms within first 2 years of life

most primary immune deficiencies are the result of ______________ - CORRECT ANSWER
single gene defects

one of the most severe forms of primary immunodeficiency - CORRECT ANSWER B-
lymphocyte deficiency

secondary immune deficiency - CORRECT ANSWER acquired
-caused by illness, such as cancer or viral infection
-caused by normal physiological changes, such as aging
-more common than congenital

most common cause of secondary immunodeficiency worldwide - CORRECT ANSWER
malnutrition

, most common symptom of immune deficiencies - CORRECT ANSWER recurrent severe
infections
