Immunity
Across
- 1. medical emergency due to exposure to an allergen resulting in blood vessel dilation, decreased blood pressure, and bronchoconstriction
- 2. during this type of hypersensitivity reaction IgG antibodies react with an antigen to cause destruction of cell by phagocytosis
- 3. only immunoglobulin that crosses the placenta, responsible for secondary immune response
- 7. tissue transferred from a member of one species to a different species
- 10. this type of disorder occurs when the body’s immune system attacks itself; the cause of these disorders is unknown.
- 11. antigens that are normally ignored by the immune system
- 12. type of immunity present at birth, provides first-line defense against pathogens
- 14. patients with autoimmune disorders are at increased risk for infection and ___________
- 15. this diagnostic test measures levels of serum immunoglobulins
- 16. this syndrome is caused by previous human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection where help T immune cells are destroyed resulting in loss of immune response and increased susceptibility to secondary infections and cancer
- 18. test used to detect HIV antibodies
- 19. Immunity
- 21. foreign antigens; stored in memory cells for future reference to implement a specific response to a specific antigen
- 22. with this type of immunity antibodies are produced to protect the body.
Down
- 1. tissue transferred from one part of the body to another part on the same individual
- 4. triggered by various infections/noninfectious agents, often leads to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)
- 5. a group of inactive proteins circulating in the blood; activated during immune reactions with IgG or IgM; causes cell damage and further inflammation when activated
- 6. with this type of immunity lymphocytes are programmed to attack non-self cells to protect the body.
- 8. in this type of reaction, also called an Immune Complex Hypersensitivity, Antigens combine with an antibody to form a complex that is deposited in tissue. The results in activation of the complement system which leads to inflammation and tissue destruction
- 9. this test detects Rh blood incompatibility
- 10. tissue transferred between members of the same species that may differ genetically
- 13. immunoglobulin responsible for development of symptoms in type 1 hypersensitivity (allergic) reactions
- 15. a patient with HIV is considered to have AIDS when their helper T (CD4) count is below this level
- 17. type 4 hypersensitivity reactions present with this type of onset; poison ivy and contact dermatitis are common examples
- 20. immunoglobulin responsible for developing antibodies against ABO blood antigens
