Chapter 16, Problem 5RQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The role of colony-stimulating factors, cytokines, and interleukins in the production of the blood cells.
Introduction: The blood cells are the cellular element of the blood such as red blood cells, platelets, and white blood cells. The formation of the blood cells is known as hematopoiesis.
Summary Introduction
To determine: The differences among cytokines, colony stimulating hormone, and interleukins.
Introduction: Cytokines, colony-stimulating factors, and interleukins are the chemical substance which regulates the growth and differentiation of the blood cells. These cells are generally the peptides or glycoproteins. Colony-stimulating factors and interleukins are types of cytokines.

Therapeutic agents are currently being investigated that block the action of selectins in order to prevent the pathological effects resulting from leukocyte entry into sites of inflammation. These agents are molecules that inhibit selectin. Describe molecules that might be effective. (Information: Glycoproteins are an important class of proteins. There are many families of glycoproteins: lectins and selectins are examples.)
In the cell-mediated immune response, there are three types of T cells produced. What are they, and what is the function of each?
Why do antibodies against cell surface antigens often produce pathological reactions while antibodies against intracellular antigens do not?

- In the antibody-mediated immune response, the binding of some antigen-presenting B cells to helper T cells initiates a signal transduction pathway that transforms the B cells into plasma cells, which will synthesize and secrete large quantities of antibodies-a specialized subset of proteins responsible for attaching to the antigen on the outer surface of pathogens. Which of the following describes the most relevant intracellular change to B cells as they are transformed into plasma cells? A B a breakdown of some membrane-bound proteins to allow synthesized antibodies to more readily diffuse across the membrane of the plasma cell с an increase in the surface area of the rough endoplasmic reticulum in order to allow the binding of a large number of ribosomes for antibody synthesis D an increase in the number of lysosomes in order to facilitate the storage of synthesized antibodies ahead of their transport out of the cell an increase in the volume of the mitochondria in order to increase…arrow_forwardName 3 cytokines: (1) proinflammatory, (1) Th1 stimulator, and (1) Th2 stimulator) Name the cell source, target cell, and primary effect for eacharrow_forwardc) State some of the features that cross the cell membrane and make "porin proteins" specific. d) Briefly clarify the concepts of "acylation", "prenylation" and "GPI stabilizer" in the context of membrane protein interactions. e) When determining ABO Blood Groups, give information about which blood group data can be obtained depending on the interaction of which antigens in the red blood cell and which antibodies in the serum.arrow_forward
