natural killer (NK) cells
immune function is dependent on hematopoiesis
primary organs of the immune system are involved in the production, maturation, and immune
activity.
immune function is dependent on - ANSWER hematopoiesis
primary organs of the immune system are involved in the production, maturation, and immune
activity. - ANSWER bone marrow
thymus gland
lymph nodes
spleen
thymus gland - ANSWER located in the anterior mediastinum and forms t cells
lymph nodes - ANSWER bean shape glands that cluster throughout the body in the neck,
chest, axillae, abdomen and inguinal region and function as an immunologic filter.
spleen - ANSWER the organ responsible for filtering white cells, platelets, and other
substances.
the immune system consist of - ANSWER innate and acquired immunity.
,innate immunity occurs - ANSWER naturally and uses phagocytes that release inflammatory
mediator and NK cells.
acquired immunity - ANSWER is the responsible of either B cells or T cells ti antigens
b cell activation can be - ANSWER t-cell dependent or independent
hematopoiesis can be affected by - ANSWER by senescence
senescence - ANSWER loss of the cells power to divide and grow
hematopoietic stem cell senescence naturally occurs - ANSWER with age but also is affected
by cancer treatment and transplantation.
immunosenescence - ANSWER reduction in size of thymus and function of immune cells
(not necessarily a reduction in number)
hematopoiesis is also affected by - ANSWER reduced size and function of thymus after
puberty
decrease cell producing marrow with age
Myeloid cells( immune function)are the - ANSWER first responders to injury and are not
pathogen specific
lymphoid cells (immune function) respond - ANSWER later and are pathogen specific
, a human leukocyte antigen high resolution provides a type of degree of genetic math because -
ANSWER potential for improved overall survival with a match donor and recipient
reduce the incidence of graft versus host disease
improve engraftment rates
role of the caregiver - ANSWER provide physical and emotional support
assist with physical recovery following HSCT
assist with take-home medication administration
perform venous care of the catheter
assess the sign of infection
monitor temperature
food preparation
provide transportation
aid in symptoms
communicate with the health care team
syngeneic - ANSWER identical twin
a: no need to Immuno suppression
d: no graft-versus-tumor effect
matched sibiling/related - ANSWER human leukocyte antigen(HLA) identical relative
a: no potential stem cell contamination, access to cells because the donor is related
d: only 25 % of the population has a sibling match, risk of GVHD
mismatched related - ANSWER hla non identical
a: no potential stem cell contamination, increased numbers of potential donors
