- Widening of blood vessels called ___________________ increases blood flow to an infected area and results in the heat and redness often associated with inflammation.
- During an inflammatory response, leaky blood vessels allow fluid to leak from the blood into tissues, causing a swelling that is referred to as ___________________
- An infection in the blood can result in blood vessels becoming leaky throughout the body, leading to a massive loss of blood pressure and insufficient delivery of oxygen to the body that is referred to as __________________
- Blood clotting is an essential part of wound healing to stop bleeding, but an inappropriate clotting response called _________________ can occur during inflammatory disease.
- An inflammatory disease of the liver. ____
- A genetic disease that causes persistent activation of the inflammasome, leading to the symptoms of severe infection even when there is no infection. ___________________
- The presence of pathogens in the bloodstream results in an inflammatory response that is systemic (occurs throughout the body) instead of being localized. __________________
- An inflammatory disease of the skin. ___
- Recruitment of monocytes into arterial walls leads to the formation of lesions called plaques that obstruct blood flow. ___________________
- A cytokine that is part of the innate immune response to virus infections: _
- A cytokine that is a general growth factor for many blood cells including stem cells: ___________________
- An immunosuppressive cytokine: _____
- A protein that belongs to the chemokine family of cytokines and functions as a chemoattractant for neutrophils: _____
- A lipid chemoattractant for neutrophils: ___
- A cytokine that promotes differentiation of helper T cells to the TH1 subset: __
- A cytokine that promotes differentiation of helper T cells to the TH2 subset: ____
- A primary cytokine that has both local and systemic actions that orchestrate and amplify an inflammatory response: _______________
- A cytokine that stimulates T cell division, for example it is needed for clonal amplification of T cells: ___________
- An adhesion molecule that is induced in neutrophils to establish strong binding to the blood vessel wall during the process of chemoattraction:______
- Helper T cell subset associated with parasitic infections and allergy _____________
- Antibody associated with parasitic infections and allergy ______________
- Antibody transported across epithelia and present in secretory fluids ______________
- Antibody that facilitates phagocytosis of pathogens by neutrophils and macrophages; it is the predominant type of antibody in blood ______________
- Helper T cell subset that stimulates B cell antibody class switching to IgG and super-activates macrophages by direct contact ______________
- A TH1 response to a bacterial infection ____
- A TH2 response to a parasitic helminth infection _____
- An inappropriate TH1 response and cytotoxic T cell response is triggered by dietary gluten (a harmless food protein) in the gut, and the tissue damage results in destruction of the upper small intestine ____________________
- _______
- An inappropriate TH2 response to harmless molecules such as pollen _____________________
- A component of the membrane attack complex: __
- The major opsonin: __________________
- An inflammatory mediator, referred to as an anaphylatoxin: __________________
- Binds to antibody and initiates the complement cascade: __
- A component of the C3 convertase: __________________
- Regulatory T cells (Treg)_____
- M cells____
- Goblet cells____
- TH17 cells
- Paneth cells
