    Conclusion 1 Based on what you know about blood‚ why would having a sickle cell anemia crisis result in a reduced red blood cell count‚ an elevated white blood cell count‚ and a reduced hematocrit? There’s a reduced RBC count‚ elevated WBC count‚ and a reduced hematocrit because of the shape of the RBC. The sickle cell anemia causes the RBC to have a different shape; a crescent and rigid shape and there are not a lot of them. So because of that‚ there’s more WBC and a reduced hematocrit. Also‚ the

    destroy over a million different antigens. T cells vs. B cells In the embryo‚ T lymphocytes are produced in the bone marrow and thymus. They then migrate to the spleen‚ lymph nodes‚ and lymph nodules. B lymphocytes are produced in the embryonic bone marrow and migrate to the spleen and lymph nodes and nodules as well. T and B cell immunity is specific‚ meaning that one foreign antigen is the target each time a mechanism is activated. Both T and B cells are capable of recognizing foreign antigens

    Why Children Are More Susceptible To Illness Than Adults? The children’s increased vulnerability to illness may be explained by the key difference in immune cells. In a study‚ it was discovered that young mice’s immune systems secrete lower levels of the cytokine than in older mice‚ which is essential for the CD4 T-cell survival during infection. It is a well-known fact that schools are popular breeding grounds for bacteria and viruses‚ but this cannot be connected to hygiene. A new research using

In the inflammatory phase‚ damage of vasculature results in the recruitment of inflammatory cells (e.g.‚ monocytes‚ lymphocytes‚ platelets‚ macrophages‚ neutrophils). Prostaglandin mediation then induces fibroblast infiltration and‚ finally‚ many bioactive molecules are synthesized at the defect site. These

An important mechanism for clearing mucus involves moving water across the membrane‚ out of the cell‚ into the mucus. This movement of water is a result of chloride and sodium transport across the membrane. This method‚ along with other mechanisms is what ensures fluidity of the mucus‚ resulting

    system‚ describe two features of self-tolerance as applied to T cells and B cells (ie. central tolerance‚ peripheral tolerance‚ suppression‚ anergy‚ etc.). Central tolerance is the process which occurs in the primary lymphoid organs of the thymus for T cells and the bone marrow for B cells‚ where B and T cells which recognize and react to self-antigens are destroyed‚ through apoptosis (McCance & Huether‚ 2014). The process were a B or T cell reacts to self-antigen is called autoreactivity. Autoreactivity

    1) What is the significance of infection with MTB? The significance of infection with MTB is that MTB attacks antigen-presenting cells‚ resulting in decreased MHC II antigen presentation. In order to find out whether MHC II is expressed on antigen-presenting cells‚ mice were infected with GFP(-) cells that were expressing BCG through aerosol infection. 2) From the introduction of the paper‚ how does MTB evade the immune system? MTB evades the immune system by invading macrophages. These
