  • Lymph Nodes
    First site where a blood bourne pathogen is detected
  • Bone marrow is not supplied by blood and lymph

  • G-CSF promotes the growth and differentiation of Neutrophils
  • Eosinophils are derived from CMP progenitors
  • Alpha-Defensin
    Antimicrobial Peptide
  • Antimicrobial peptides do not bind to positively charged proteins in the cytoplasm and interfere with protein trafficking in the cell
  • Fungi

    The MAC consists of a multimeric complex of which of the following proteins that, by their association, forms a pore in the surface of the attacked cell?
  • IL-8
    Promotes chemotaxis of neutrophils into injured/infected tissues
