1 The Language Of Medicine Dr. Michael P. Gillespie

2 Chapter 14 Lymphatic and Immune Systems 2

3  Identify the structures and analyze terms related to the lymphatic and immune systems.  Learn basic terminology, combining forms, and other word parts related to these systems.

4  Identify laboratory tests, clinical procedures, and abbreviations.  Apply your new knowledge to understanding medical terms in their proper contexts, such as medical reports and records.

5 Lymph: clear watery fluid that surrounds body cells and flows in system of lymph vessels throughout the body  originates in blood  rich in lymphocytes and monocytes  flows in lymph capillaries and vessels  flows through lymph nodes and lymphatic organs (liver, spleen, thymus, and nodes)  absorbs lipids in the intestine

6 Lymphatic System Functions 1.Transports proteins and fluid that have leaked, back to the bloodstream 2.Lymphatic vessels absorb lipids from intestines and transport them to the bloodstream 3.Lymphocytes and monocytes protect the body by mounting a cellular attack on foreign cells and organisms.

17 Destroys old red blood cells Destroys old red blood cells Filters microorganisms and other foreign material out of the blood Filters microorganisms and other foreign material out of the blood Activates lymphocytes during blood filtration (B cells produce antibodies) Activates lymphocytes during blood filtration (B cells produce antibodies) Stores blood, especially erythrocytes (RBCs) and platelets Stores blood, especially erythrocytes (RBCs) and platelets

18 Provides immunity in fetal life and in early years of growth. Provides immunity in fetal life and in early years of growth. Makes cells immunocompetent in early life Makes cells immunocompetent in early life Early removal from an animal impairs its ability to make antibodies and produce cells to fight antigens Early removal from an animal impairs its ability to make antibodies and produce cells to fight antigens

19 Natural immunity: genetic predisposition  Phagocytosis  Macrophages  Natural killer cells

20 Acquired immunity  Active  by contracting a disease  by vaccination  stem cell transplant

21 B lymphocytes are responsible for humoral immunity.  originate in bone marrow from stem cells  transform into plasma cells to produce immunoglobulins, antibodies that neutralize antigens

22  Cytotoxic T cells (T8 cells) attach to and attack antigens.  Other T cells secrete interferons and interleukins that help cells respond to antigens.  Helper T cells promote antibody synthesis by B cells and stimulate other T cells.  Suppressor T cells inhibit B and T cells.

23  Dendric cells are a macrophage derived from monocytes.  They recognize and digest foreign antigens.  They present antigens on surface to stimulate B and T cells.  They transfer immunity by exposing dendritic cells in culture; then transfuse them and get them to stimulate T and B cells.

24  Vaccines: killed tumor cells that produce cytokines that enhance the immune response  Dendritic cells: cultured and exposed outside body and reinfused  Monoclonal antibodies (MoAb): multiple copies of cells or genes that kill tumor cells  Donor lymphocyte infusions: T cells, infused after allogeneic stem cell or bone marrow transplant, attack tumor (leukemia treatment)

25 1.Lymphocyte that originates in the bone marrow and transforms into a plasma cell to secrete antibodies? A.dendritic cell B.helper T cell C.B cell D.cytotoxic T cell

26 2. Which is the formation of antibodies and lymphocytes after exposure to an antigen? A.cell-mediated immunity B.acquired immunity C.natural immunity

27 COMBINING FORMS  immun/oprotection  lymph/olymph  lymphaden/olymph node  splen/ospleen  thym/othymus gland  tox/opoison Combining FormMeaning Combining Forms, Prefixes, and Terminology

28 PREFIXES  ana-again, anew  inter-between PrefixMeaning Combining Forms, Prefixes, and Terminology

29 Immunodeficiency  Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS)  destroys T helper cells (CD4+ cells)  opportunistic infections  malignancies (Kaposi sarcoma, Wasting syndrome)

30  Candidiasis  Cryptococcus (Crypto)  Cryptosporidiosis  Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection  Herpes simplex  Histoplasmosis (Histo)  Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare (MAI) infection  Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP)  Toxoplasmosis (Toxo)  Tuberculosis (TB)

31 Drugs to Treat AIDS  Reverse transcriptase inhibitors (RTI) inhibit viral enzyme called reverse transcriptase.  Protease inhibitors inhibit viral proteolytic enzyme.  Combiniation of RTI and Protease inhibitors is HAART (highly active anti-retroviral therapy).

32  Allergy: abnormal sensitivity acquired by exposure to antigen  Ranges from  allergic rhinitis or hay fever to anaphylaxis  Other allergies:  atopic dermatitis  asthma  urticaria (hives)

33  Lymphoma: malignant tumor of lymph nodes and lymph tissue  Hodgkin disease (Reed-Sternberg cell)  Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (follicular lymphoma, large cell lymphoma)  Multiple myeloma: malignant tumor of bone marrow cells  Thymoma: malignant tumor of the thymus

34

35 3. What is a malignant condition associated with AIDS? A.anaphylaxis B.non-Hodgkin lymphoma C.Kaposi sarcoma D.Hodgkin disease

36  CD4+ cell count: measures the number of CD4+ T cells (helper T cells) in the bloodstream with patients with AIDS  ELISA test: detects anti-HIV antibodies; Western blot given as follow-up  Immunoelectrophoresis: separates immunoglobulins (IgG, IgM, IgE, IgA, IgD)

37  Computed tomography (CT) scan: X-ray imaging in the transverse plane produces cross-sectional views of anatomic structures. These x-ray views show abnormalities of lymphoid organs, such as lymph nodes, spleen, and thymus gland.
