1 Medical Immunology Practice Questions-2016 Autoimmunity + Case Studies Directions: Each of the numbered items or incomplete statements in this section is followed by answers or by completions of the statement. Select the ONE lettered answer or completion that is BEST in each case. Janice Bond, a 31-year-old woman, presents with visual blurring and paresthesia (tingling in her arms and feet). She comments on experiencing unusual clumsiness and fatigue. She has increased motor tone (spasticity) and hyperreflexia. She cancels her follow up appointment the following week later because she feels better. Six months later, she reappears suddenly at your office complaining of visual blurring, tingling, significant weakness of her left leg and difficulties walking. You the following tests: Test Patient s values Normal values WBC 11.9 x 10 9 cells/l ( x 10 9 cells/l) ESR 8 mm/hr (0-20 mm/hr) Rheumatoid factor 12 IU/ml (0-40 IU/ml) Antinuclear antibody (ANA) Neg (Neg) Anti-dsDNA 3 IU/ml (<25 IU/ml) Unirinalysis Normal (Normal) Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) 8 cells/μl (<5 cells/μl) Tensilon test Normal (Normal) MRI (right) reveals lesions within the CNS (arrows). 1. Which of the following is the MOST LIKELY diagnosis from the list below? A. Diabetes B. Duchenne muscular dystrophy C. Goodpasture s syndrome D. Grave s disease E. Mitochondrial myopathy F. Multiple Sclerosis G. Myasthenia gravis H. Rheumatoid arthritis I. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) 2. A Wright Stain of her cerebrospinal fluid would reveal predominantly: A. B cells B. Basophils C. Dendritic cells D. Endothelial cells E. Eosinophils F. Neutrophils G. T cells 3. Which of the following statements is MOST LIKELY to be true regarding Mrs. Bond s disease? A.

Caused by an increase in IL-10 production E. Involves Th1 cells F. MHC class II alleles are not associated with disease G. Primarily due to antibodies against myelin Note: There will not be linked questions on an exam or quiz. However, this cluster of questions illustrates how you might need to think through the first question so that you could answer the second or third.
2 Use for the next 3 questions A 37-year-old man suffers a penetrating occupational injury to his left eye. After ophthalmic surgery and two weeks of uneventful healing, he notices redness, photophobia, pain, and significant visual impairment in his left eye and eventually in his right eye. Peripheral blood T cells and macrophages are isolated from the patient and mixed with an extract of bovine uveal tissue (from the eye) resulting in cellular proliferation. 4. Which of the following MOST LIKELY explains the reaction in the patient s right eye (sympathetic ophthalmia)? A. A cytokine imbalance. B. An immune response against normally sequestered antigens. C. An infection in the left eye has moved to the right eye resulting in polyclonal T cell activation by super antigens. D. Deletion of autoreactive T cells during negative selection. E. Molecular mimicry. F. The functional inactivation of mature T cells following TCR stimulation without a costimulatory signal. 5. What cell type is MOST LIKELY involved in this process? A. B cells B. Eosinophils C. Macrophages D. Mast cells E. Neutrophils F. T cells 6. What could/should be done to prevent him from losing site in his other eye? A. Antibiotic therapy. B. Immunosuppressive therapy with topical or systemic cortiosteroids. C. Induce polyclonal B cell activation by Epstein-Barr viral infection. D. Plasmapheresis. E. Treat with IL-2 or IL-12 to promote increased Th1 cell function. F. Treat with a super antigen. 7. Which mechanism do the following three disorders have in common Myasthenia Gravis, Grave s disease, Goodpasture s Syndrome? A. Antibody binding to a cell surface antigen B. Autoantibodies directed against soluble components. C. CD8+ cytotoxic action. D. Immune complex deposition and complement activation. E. Significant CD4+ T cell and macrophage infiltration.
3 Use for the next four questions 8. A 19-year-old SE Asian woman goes to her physician with a chief complaint of chronic weakness and tiredness for the past few months. Her joints were stiff and painful and she had a light red rash across her face. There was no evidence of infection, and she did not have gastrointestinal or respiratory complaints. A blood sample was taken for analysis. Test Patient s values Normal values White cell count 11.9 x 10 9 cells/l ( x 10 9 cells/l) Hemoglobin 15.1 g/dl ( g/dl) ESR 41 mm/hr (0-20 mm/hr) Rheumatoid factor 65 IU/ml (0-40 IU/ml) Antinuclear antibody Positive (Neg) Anti-dsDNA 75 IU/ml (<25 IU/ml) Unirinalysis Normal (Normal) Which of the following is the MOST LIKELY diagnosis from the list below?
