IMMUNE SYSTEM Chapter 21
Innate Defenses • Surface Barriers • Skin • Mucous membranes
Innate Defenses • Chemical Barriers • Mucus • Lysozymes • Saliva • Lacrimal fluid • High acidity • Gastric juices • Urine • Vaginal secretions • Sebum
Innate Defenses • Cellular Defenses • Phagocytic cells • Macrophages or Monocytes • Free (alveolar) • Fixed (Kupffer) • Neutrophils • Dendritic cells
Phagocytic Mobilization • Alarm call • Vasodilation • Increased permeability • Leukocytosis • Margination • Diapedesis • Chemotaxis
Phagocytic Mechanism • Adherence • Ingestion • Phagosome • Digestion • Lysosome • Phagolysosome • Resolution
Innate Defenses • Cellular Defenses • Phagocytes • Inflammatory Cells • Mast Cells • Basophils • Eosinophils? • Natural Killer Cells
Anti-microbial Agents • Interferons
Anti-microbial Agents • Interferons • Complement • Pyrogens
Adaptive Immunity • Specific • Systemic • Memory
Adaptive Defenses • Antigens = “self” versus “non-self” • Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) • MHC I • MHC II
Antibody-Mediated Immunity • Also known as “humoral immunity” • Involves B lymphocytes • DIRECTLY recognizes antigen • B lymphocytes undergo clonal expansion
Cell-Mediated Immunity • Involves T lymphocytes • Cannot recognize antigen directly • Antigen must be presented by APC • T lymphocytes are more diverse: • Helper T cells • Cytotoxic T cells • Suppressor T cells • Memory T cells
Homeostatic Imbalances • Organ transplant and tissue rejection • Autograft • Isograft • Allograft • Xenograft • Immunodeficiency • Severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome (SCID) • Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
Homeostatic Imbalances • Autoimmune diseases • Multiple sclerosis • Grave’s disease • Type I diabetes • Systemic lupus • Myasthenia gravis • Glomerulonephritis • Rheumatoid arthritis
Homeostatic Imbalances • Hypersensitivities • Immediate (Type I) • Subacute • Cytotoxic (Types II) • Immune-complex (Type III) • Delayed (Type IV)
