nurs 6501 Advanced Pathophysiology Final Exam with accurate solutions available and graded A+

B-lymphocytes - ANS..., Responsible for humoral immunity. B-Cells are exposed to an antigen. When they encounter an antigen they imprint the antigen. Every bacteria has an antigenic site or antigenic marker. Immune system will respond to marker. Types of immunity - ANS..., Natural active immunity,Natural passive immunity,Artificial active immunity,Artificial passive immunity Immunotope - ANS... Epitope - ANS..., An area of the antigen molecle that stimulates the production of, and combines with, specific antibodies; also know as the antigenic determinant site Paratope - ANS..., what is the name of the part of the antibody that interacts with the antigen? IgA - ANS..., (1) 10-15% of total Ig in serum (2) predominant in secretions like breast milk, saliva, tears, mucous (3) primarily exists as monomer; secretory IgA is dimer or tetramer IgE - ANS..., 1% of serum antibody, half life 2.5 days, helminth infections, binds to mast cells via FcεR (mediates allergic reaction, triggers mast cell degranulation) IgG - ANS..., 2nd to respond, formed in lg quantities & work in the blood & tissues. They bind to destructive pathogens so that the immune cells (for example, macrophage) have an easier time ingesting them. The immunoglobulin class that is the only one capable of crossing the placenta i IgM - ANS..., 31. The most potent activator of classical complement., first to appear on the surface of B cells Endogenous antigens - ANS..., infected host cells display pathogen proteins externally and are recognized as foreign; infected cell with virus and the viral antigens surround it Herpes virus - ANS...,, 1) HSV-1 - oral herpes, STD and contact, no vaccine, lifetime infection, treat the symptoms, sore Maternal antibody - ANS..., Natural, passive immunity, IgG, maternal IgG crosses placent, Antibody in a newborn animal which the newborn acquired through the placenta or colostrum (the first milk).
