The immune system must
recognise friend from foe
Who is foe
nonself
Who is friend
self
What does the immune system use as its eyes
Markers
Examples of Markers
MHC I MHC II CD Ig TOLL-PAMP
“the name tag””
MHC I
MHC II
markers found on all nucleated cells
MHC I and MHC II
what does nucleated cells exclude
red blood cells
Where are CD markers found
T Cells
Where are Ig markers found
B Cells
Where are TOLL-PAMP markers found
white blood cells
APC and Macrophages
What does the immune system use as words
Cytokines
Examples of Cytokins
Bradykins
Interleukins
Histamines
prostagladin
Body Compartments
RES
ECF
Lymph sys
Vascular sys
Where is the lymph system most condensed
the extremites
Why is the lymphatic system more abundant in the hands and feet than the head
the extremities are more likely to incur injury
the lymphatic system functions as a drain off
importance of the Caridovasucular system
It is how everything gets around the body
RES?
Reticuloendothelial System
RES importance?
connect lymph and vascular system and the rest of the body
ECF
Extracellular Fluid
EFC importance?
allows the cells to move between the other 3 compartment

What is the first line of defense called
Innate
What does innate mean
born with the immunity
Major types of innate immunity
Physical barrier
Chemical barrier
Genetic component
