IMMUNE SYSTEM Flashcards
DEFENDS THE HOST AGAINST PATHOGENS
USES DIFFERENT recognition systems to effectively eliminate the invading pathogen or its product.
IMMUNE SYSTEM
function of complement
cell lysis
2 components of immunity
INNATE IMMUNITY AND ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY
ALSO CALLED AS NATURAL IMMUNITY
INNATE IMMUNITY
ALSO CALLED AS ACQUIRED IMMUNITY
adaptive immunity
IMMEDIATE RESPONSE TO THE PATHOGEN THAT DOES NOT CONFER LONG-LASTING PROTECTIVE IMMUNITY
innate immunity
IMMUNE RESPONSE CAN BE ANTIBODY MEDIATED (HUMORAL), CELL MEDIATED (CELLULAR) OR BOTH THAT TAKES SEVERAL DAYS TO RESPOND
ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY
natural immunity
also called as non-specific
innate immunity
also called as adaptive immunity
specific
these are considered non-adaptive ornon-specific and are the same for all pathogensor foreign substances to which one is exposed.
natural immunity
present at birth and is activated in the same manner each time the individual is subject to challenge
natural immunity
a type of resistace that is characterized by specificity for each individual pathogen, or microbial agent, and the ability to remember a prior exposure, which results in an increased response upon repeated exposure
acquired immunity (so unu pangilahan mo dii???)
- response to foreign antigenic stimulus
- results in acquisition of immunologic memory and the production of antibody
- reacts specificall with the antigen that caused its production.
acquired immunity
what are the cells in natural immunity
granular: neutrophil, eosinophil, basophil, monocyte, dentritic cells
cell surface receptors:
innate immune system & adaptive immune system
a limited number of “hard-wired” pattern recognition receptors.
innate immune system
an enormous number of somatically generated receptors via gene rearrangement.
adaptive immune system
\+type of immunity \+specificity \+effective immediately after exposure to microbe \+improves after exposure \+has memory
innate, adaptive nonspecific, highly specific yes acts within minutes, no several days before becoming effective no, yes no, yes
firstline of defence and second line of defense
innate immunty
third line of defense
adaptive immunity
external defense system
first line of defense,
internal defense system
2nd & 3rd line of defense
composed of structural barriers that prevent most infectious agents frm entering the body
first line of defense
physical char. in first line of defense
skin and mucosal membrane suraces
biochemical char i 1st line of defense
lactic acid
fatty acids
ucous secretions
lysozome
what defenses have in this part of the body:
- ear
- eyes
- nasal cavity
- mouth cavity
- skin
- trachea and bronchi
- urethra
- stomach
- vagina
- anus
ear=cerumen eyes=tears nasal cavity=hairs and mucous trap org. mouthcavity=mucous mem. traps microorg skin=impervious barrier trachea and bronchi=mucous layer traps micro. urethra=urine anus=mucous membrane stomach=acidic juices vagina=acidic secretions
both cells and soluble factors play essential parts
- i
second line of defense
it recognizes molecules that areacquired to infectious organisms
s2nd line of defense
what are the cellular cells in 2nd line of defense?
mast cells
neutrophil
macrophages
natural iller cells
what are the humoral cells in 2nd line of defense
complement
acute phase reactants, defenins
iterferon (and and B)
in the third line of defense, what are the cellular cells and the humoral cells?
cellular
- T lumphocytes
- b lymphocytes
- plasma cells
humoral
-antibodies and cytokines
what are the components of natural immunity?
cellular
humoral
acute phase reactants
inflammation
blood cells that responds to bacterial infection
neutrophil
responds to parasitic and helminthic infections and allergy
eosinophils
neutralizes basophil’s and mast cell’s products Histamine)
eosinophils
responds to allergic & hypersensitivity reactions
basophils
basophils attached in tissue
mast cells
