Q

Eosinophil granulocytes

Role

A
  • Main task of eosinophil granulocytes:
    • Clear away the metabolites produced by the basophil cells provoking inflammation
      • Antiallergic:Proportion in the blood increases during allergic processes
    • Assure the cellular elimination in platelets
  • Lower migration capability than neutrophil granulocytes:
    • Ø phagocytosis
    • Pinocytosis
    • Stronger chemotactic sensitivity

Q

Eosinophil granulocytes

Antiallergic effect

A
  • The eosinophil cells gather in the inflammatory areas by chemotaxis
  • Task of the enzymes histaminase and aril-sulphatase from the granules:
    • Removing the debris
  • The eosinophil cell takes up and breaks down:
    • Histamine produced by the basophil cells
    • SRS-A (Slow reacting substance of Anaphylaxis) that maintains inflammation for a long time
  • Eosinophil cells are able to degranulate (see basophil cells)

Q

Mononuclear phagocyte

Antigen presentation

A
  • APC cells (eg. Macrophages or B-lymphocytes) express the digested pieces of the phagocytized antigen together with their own MHC to the cell surface
  • The adequate receptor of the helper T-lymphocyte recognizes the piece of the antigen and the MHC complex
  • This initiates the immune systemantibody production
  • Infected somatic cells express foreign material to the cell surface
  • This goes together with the MHC-I type surface marker
  • If MHCI plus an antigen complex occurs on the surface of the cell, it will be recognized by the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte receptors and the infected cell will be destroyed
