Draw a figure illustrating the sequence of events in a typical inflammatory response to a bacterial infection caused by injury to the skin (in 3 main stages). Include a note at top of figure: Is this an example of an innate response or adaptive immune response? Include the following structures/cells/chemicals: epidermis, dermis, splinter contaminated with bacteria puncturing skin, macrophages, mast cells, neutrophils, nitric oxide (as blue dots), endothelial cells lining capillary, red blood cells within capillary, histamine (as green dots). Under each stage, describe the events occurring in the 3 main stages: Stage 1: What do mast cells and endothelial cells produce in initial response to injury? What do the chemicals produced by the cells do? Stage 2: What happens to capillaries? What leaks out of capillaries to enter the site of the wound? Stage 3: What do neutrophils and macrophages do? What happens to capillaries at this point?
An adaptive immune response underlying coeliac disease pathogenesis involves:       a)  Production of Th1 (T helper cell 1 type) cytokines that act to promote the production of antibodies to gluten peptides   b)  Production of anti-gliadin and anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies via TH2 cytokines   c)  Conversion of glutamate to glutamine by deamination   d)  The early recognition of gluten peptides via pattern recognition receptors on epithelial cells and the subsequent release of Interleukin 15
Is Crohn's disease considered as an autoimmune disease. If it is, are there other predisposing factors to it other than genetics? If it is not, what is its nature?
