Which of these statements accurately describes the myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) involved in malignant cells invasion and metastasis? Group of answer choices Granulocyte/Polymorphonuclear MDSCs are mature neutrophils that are more highly phagocytic than the mature neutrophils Granulocyte/Polymorphonuclear MDSCs express high levels of reactive oxygen species and myeloperoxidase for immunosuppression The abundance of MDSCs in tumors is associated with a good prognosis and increased responsiveness to chemotherapy MDSCs promote the effects of anti-VEGF drugs by promoting angiogenesis in tumors

Which are true or false? Basophils release histamine and are phagocytic Metastasized cancer cells cannot enter the lymph system because of the continuous basement membrane surrounding lymphatic capillaries. Eosinophils are derived from the myeloid stem cell line When compared with erythrocytes, leukocytes are smaller and have a nucleus.
During the inflammatory response, the reasoning for the swelling at the site of inflammation is because local blood vessels vasodilate bringing an increased volume of blood to the area local blood vessels vasoconstrict causing lymph fluid to accumulate in the tissue space when white blood cells are activated they begin to secrete plasma into the tissue space local blood vessels become leaky allowing some plasma to leak out into the tissue space
An infection in the skin, such as a pimple, often produces pus. The major component of pus is: Toxic oxygen molecules released by macrophages Toxic nitrogen molecules released by macrophages NETs released by neutrophils Dead epithelial cells killed by lysozyme Dead and dying neutrophils
A person with lymphoma receives a dose of 35 gray in the form of gamma radiation during a course of radiotherapy. Most of this dose is absorbed in 18 grams of cancerous lymphatic tissue. i. How much energy is absorbed by the cancerous tissue? If this treatment consists of five 15-minute sessions per week over the course of 5 weeks and just one percent of the gamma photons in the gamma ray beam are absorbed, what is the power of the gamma ray beam? ii. iii. If the gamma ray beam consists of just 0.5 percent of the photons emitted by the gamma source, each of which has an energy of 0.03 MeV, what is the activity, in Curies, of the gamma ray source?
Most normal tissues contain resident macrophages, and connective tissue sites in the gastrointestinal tract and the lung contain large numbers of these cells. Yet the blood also contains a high number of circulating ‘classical’ monocytes that can differentiate into macrophages after entering tissues. These circulating monocytes function to: Phagocytose and kill pathogens in the blood Line the endothelial surfaces of the blood vessels with phagocytic cells Enter lymph nodes and patrol for infecting microbes in these organs Amplify the local innate immune response by entering tissues that are infected Differentiate into dendritic cells during an inflammatory response
colony forming units reticulocyte hemopoiesis hematopoietic stem cells erythropoiesis hemopoiesis is the production of blood, especially its formed elements. Red bone marrow produces all seven formed elements. The process begins with specialized cells called hematopoietic stem cells , which have the ability to develop into all formed elements. When more of a particular formed element is needed, some of these specialized cells will transform into colony forming units that are fate-determined to become only the type of formed element that is currently needed. These will then multiply in number, maturing into a series of precursor cells before finally becoming the desired formed element. erythropoiesis is specific name for hemopoiesis when new erythrocytes are being made. It follows the pattern above, producing a series of precursor cells, which ultimately results in the nucleus being discarded, and an immature cell called a reticulocyte being produced. This cell is released into the…
