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)

Question:- Most WBCs of the adaptive immune system generally reside in either lymph nodes or the spleen in the absence of an infection. How do adaptive WBCs use their own surface proteins to migrate to these designated locations? Why would they be able to go to these designated locations whether an infection is occurring or not? How do these features of adaptive cells relate to their roles as slow responders with very precise specificity for non-self microbes?

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)
Topic is : SARS-CoV-2 Explain why this topic is important. In your response you must state which specific organism (specific plant, animal,..) is the pathogen’s host and why studying this pathogen is important. To answer this question fully, you need to do some external research to support, quantitatively (with numbers) why this topic is important. For example, if you choose a human pathogen, you should include answers to questions such as: what disease or health problems does it cause? How many people are affected or die annually? What are the economic impacts of the pathogen? Answer:
Explain the use of tPAs (Tissue Plasminogen Activator). Thank you!

Question:- Your patient has a three month history of weight loss, night sweats, and swollen lymph nodes. He has been seen for numerous opportunistic infections. These are infections by pathogens that usually do not cause significant disease in humans. He has a history of IV drug abuse and admits to having shared used needles with other drug abusers. You suspect he has Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The virology lab is having technical difficulties right now and is unable to test for the presence of Human Immunodeficiency virus. However, the hematology lab is able to test for the presence of different types of lymphocytes. If patient does have AIDS, which type of lymphocyte would be most affected and would the numbers of this lymphocyte be increased or decreased?
