Document Summary
Adaptive (acquired, specific) - antibody-producing cells are present, nonhereditary defense and protection after exposure to specific pathogen. Find - (toll-like receptors tlrs) on phagocytic cells that recognize molecular patterns such as lps, peptidoglycan, and through cytokines. Adhere - adherence is the ability of the phagocyte cell membrane to bind to specific molecules on the surface of microbe. Eosinophils - kills worms through secreting enzymes. Nk cells - kills viral-infected cells and cancer cells. When lymph is not clearing out fast - edema (swelling/inflammation because of fluid or blood buildup) When lymph isn"t able to collect fluids (too much), it causes accumulation edema. Whenever histamine is released, blood vessels dilate and become more permeable. Interferons - proteins that act nonspecifically to cause cell killing or to stimulate cells to produce antiviral proteins. Type i - production of antiviral proteins in neighboring cells.
