Role of Macrophage
Innate response- Induction of acute inflammation
1 of 10
Role of Neutrophil
Extracellular killing of bacteria- Reactive Oxygen Pathway, producing O* radicals and OH- ions. Nitric Oxidase synthase- producing NO and Cl- ions.
2 of 10
Contents of Eosinophils
Major Basic Protein, Eosinophil Cationic Protein, Eosinophil Perioxidase, Eosinophil derived neurotoxin
3 of 10
Role of MBP and ECP
Major Basic Protein: Disrupts worm cuticle and kills epithelia. Eosinophil cationic protein: Ribonuclease, anti-viral.
4 of 10
Role of EPO and EDN
Eosinophil Peroxidase: generates Cl-, Br- and OH- oxidation. Eosinophil derived neurotoxin: ribonuclease, anti viral.
5 of 10
Role of Eosinophil and Mast Cells
Acts on parasites and extracellular organisms by rapidly secreting antimicrobial compounds into extracellular space
6 of 10
Role of NK cells
Release preformed cytotoxic granules that kill cell. Recognise lack of MHC present on plasma membrane of a virus infected cell so kills it.
7 of 10
Difference between primary and second response
Same levels of IgM, IgG is produced earlier and higher levels are made in the secondary response.
8 of 10
Role of Antibodies
Neutralise Bacterial toxins, opsonise bacteria in extracellular space, activate complement with bacteria within the plasma.
9 of 10
Complement
Biological cascade leading to the lysis of microbes and activation of secondary innate and adaptive immune response.
