Stressful Situations
Environment (allergens)
Intrinsic asthma is caused by exposure to an allergen.
True
False
(asthma) When an allergen is inhaled, which cell is activated through engulfing this particle?
Mast cell
Columnar epithelium cells
Dendritic Cells
T Helper Cells
(asthma) once the dendritic cell has been activated, which cells secrete thymic stromal lymphocytes?
Columnar Epithelial Cells
IgE antibodies
T Helper 2 Cells
Mast Cells
(asthma) What does the thymic stromal lymphocytes cause activated dendritic cells to produce?
Antibodies
Chemokines
Oxygen
Hemoglobin
What does chemokines do?
Generate energy within the cells
Destroy the pathogen by breaking it down
Attract T Helper 2 Cells
Reduce blood flow to the area
(asthma) select the 3 main functions of activate T Helper 2 Cells
Promote IgE Production
Promote Mast Cell Production
Attract more T Helper 1 Cells
Stimulate eosinophil production
Destroys broken down pathogens
(asthma) fill in the blank for the pathophysiology pathway
(D.C= dendritic cell)
Columnar epithelial cells detect activated Dendritic cells and secrete thymic stromal lymphocytes.
Activated Dendritic cell secretes a hormone.
Mast cell is activated through the activation of the D.C and secretes thymic stromal lymphocytes.
Thymic stromal lymphocytes are created by TH2 cells which have detected the activation of the dendritic cell.
(asthma) Select the 2 main functions of the Thymic Stromal Lymphocytes
Destroy pathogens
Increase immunity to pathogens
Attract TH2 cells
Enable Dendritic Cells to differentiate T-Cells into TH2 cells
Select the Signs and Symptoms of Asthma
Wheeze
Chest Tightness
Dry Irritating Cough producing thick sputum
Dysponea
Tachycardia and Tachyponea
Select the types of medication used in asthma treatment
Bronchodilators
Antiemetics
Anti-inflammatories
Antibacterials
Select the 2 main types of bronchodilators used in asthma and COPD treatment
Corticosteroids
Beta agonist
Anticholinergics
Leukotriene Modifiers
Select the 2 main types of anti-inflammatory medications used in Asthma and COPD treatment
Beta agonist
Anticholinergics
Corticosteroids
Leukotriene Modifiers
