by: Your Name Here Introduction Blood clotting Allergic Reaction Hormone release Immune response Blood Clotting Initiated by Extrinsic mechanism Substances from damaged tissues are mixed with the blood, Intrinsic mechanism Blood itself is traumatized Affected by more than 30 blood substances. Prothrombin – essential clotting mechanism. Platelets - initiates blood clotting Vitamin K – needed to produce prothrombin. Blood Clot Requirements: thrombin calcium ions (Ca2+) clotting factors Components: Platelet plugs enmeshed in a network of insoluble fibrin molecules Clot Formation Blood Clotting Mechanism Immune Response Antigen Antibody Lymphocytes Phagocytic Cells Natural Killer Cells Cytokines T-Cell Response B – Cell Response Lymphocytic Response Allergic Reaction An over reaction of the body’s defense. Response to invader. Triggered by Allergens (antigens). Can be caused by anything. Can be life threatening. Allergic Reaction Allergic Reaction Hormone Release Body messengers. steroids peptides amines Endocrine Vasopressin Growth Hormone Calcitonin Insulin Adrenaline Noradrenaline Exocrine Sweat Saliva digestive juices Hormone Release Neural Regulation Humoral Regulation Summary Blood clotting is a protective mechanism to avoid blood loss, Immune response is body’s defense. Allergic reaction is an exaggerated response to antigen. Hormone release is to sustain system functions. Four functions are with special association. References Allergic reaction.
