Question 1 Walter is a young boy that was unfortunate to fall in a trench during a school outing. After Walter was removed from the hole by the teacher it became apparent that his foot had been pricked and penetrated by a nail. Walter was transported to the hospital. By the time Walter got to the hospital he was experiencing so much pain and his foot was swollen. Although the hole contained pathogenic bacteria, his health was not so bad. 1. Explain in why and how his arm got swollen? (Word limit = 250)

PROCEDURE 1 Time to Trace! In this procedure, you will be tracing two invaders: bacteria in the extracellular fluid and a virus that has infected cells. To keep things simple, you will trace the main pathway and the main immune response to the pathogen. Do note, however, that the actual response is much more complex, and your instructor may wish you to include more information. You are provided with hints and the number of steps you should aim to include for each organism, but you will likely want to consult your textbook for more help. After you have completed the activity, answer Check Your Understanding Questions 5 and 6 (p. 586). Start: bacteria in the extracellular fluid → bacteria damage local macrophages and damaged macrophages release that attract to the area → these cells phagocytize and bacteria and secrete chemicals to attract granulocytes called at the same time, cells called cells ingest bacteria and migrate to these cells present antigens to TĦ cells → TH cells activate…

EXERCISE -10- Sometimes, the immune system is too weak and unable to efficiently fight infections: this is the case of Immuno-deficiencies. In some people, the immune system is too aggressive and attacks harmless elements of the environment: this is the case of allergies. Some deficiencies of the immune system are congenital. Their signs appear shortly after birth. Others are acquired, such as the Acquired ImmunoDeficiency Syndrome or AIDS which is due to a virus called Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). The infected individual with HIV remains apparently healthy for a long time. However, he may transmit the infection to others. a- By referring to the above text i- Define immunodeficiency and indicate its types. DISORDERS OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM ii- Indicate the causative agent and the target of AIDS. b- AIDS can be transmitted to others. i- Name 2 methods that can transmit AIDS between people. ii- Name 1 method that doesn't transmit AIDS. iii-Suggest a method to detect infection by HIV
Immunology This 29 year old Lab Tech is suffering from fever, persistent fatigue, and joint pain. He reported that a needle in a plastic garbage bag nicked his finger about 2 months ago. His physical examination was within normal limits. His laboratory data, however, revealed elevated liver serum enzyme levels and total bilirubin levels. Additional laboratory data included positive HBsAg and positive IgM anti-HBc. His IgM anti-HAV and anti-HCV tests were negative. 1. Does this patient have a form of infectious hepatitis? If so, what type? 2. Can any further tests be done to confirm the diagnosis? 3. What's the patient’s prognosis?

Immunology question: Using cytometry to stain a lymph node sample from a patient having a bacterial infection with a green fluorescent labeled anti-MHC I antibody and a red fluorescent-labeled anti-B7 antibody, what are the cells that are in each quadrant of the cytometry plot? Note that the upper left is high in red and no green, the upper right is high red and high green, the lower left is none of red nor green, lower right is only high green. My personal understanding Is: UL: None: since there are no cells express B7 in lymph nodes without being APC. UR: Activated antigen-presenting cells LL: None APC cells including T cells, FDC; pathogens, etc. LR: Non-activated APC cells. (Question, does all cells express MHC I ? if that's the case there should be a lot more)
