What is a Lymph Node?
• A secondary lymphoid organ that filters lymph using macrophagesstores b and t cellsactivates b and t cellsproduces antibodiesB cells are stored in the follicles of lymph nodethe primary follicle is dense and dormantthe secondary follicle is germinalT cells are stored in the paracortex of lymph node Paracortex is not developed in Di george syndrome
What is the spleen?• T cells are found in the periarterial lymphatic sheath
(PALS) and in the white pulp of the spleen. B cells are found white pulp of the spleen. Macrophages in the spleen remove encapsulated bacteria.Decreased spleen functions means decrease I G M Decreased I G M means decreased complement fixatiionDecreased complement fixation means decreased C 3 bDecreased C 3 B means increased attacks by bacteria with capsulesSalmonella is encapsulatedStreptococcus pneumoniae is encapsulatedHemophilus influenzae is encapsulatedNeisseria meningitidis is encapsultedRemoval of the spleen causes Howell Jolly Bodies, target cells and thrombocytosis to appearHowell jolly bodies are nuclear remnants Target cells are RBC with a bulls eye appearance

What is type one hypersensitivity?
• Anaphylactic and atopicFree antigen cross-links IgE on presensitized mast cells and basophils, triggering release of vasoactive amines that act at postcapillary venules (i.e., histamine ). Reaction develops rapidly after antigen exposure due to preformed antibody.
• Test: scratch test and radioimmunosorbent assay.
What is type two hypersensitivity?
• Antibody and complement lead to membrane attack complex (MAC). Test: direct and indirect Coombs. Antibody mediated - I g M, I g G bind to fixed antigen on "enemy" cell, leading to lysis (by complement) or phagocytosis. 3 mechanisms: 1. Opsonize cells or activate complement 2. Antibodies recruit neutrophils and macrophages that incite tissue damage 3. Bind to normal cellular receptors and interfere with functioning
