Innate Immune Defences & Inflammation 2: The Induced Response Flashcards

1
Q

Cells of the innate & adaptive immune system

  • The discovery of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) is blurring the traditional boundaries between innate and adaptive immune systems. Invariant natural killer T cells, some B cells at epithelial barriers (B1 cells) and gamma delta T cells have innate qualities whereas NK cells may adapt after their first encounter with a pathogen due to innate immune memory. T and B cells also have innate immune receptors such as TLRs.
