What is immune system? | Network of cells, tissues, organs in body that work together in protecting from infection |
Divided into two types | Innate Immune Response (1st & 2nd Line Defense) Adaptive Immune Response (3rd Line Defense) |
Components in immune system | 1. Cardiovascular system 2. Reticuloendothelial system (MPS) 3. Lymphatic system |
Cardiovascular System | |
Reticuloendothelial System | |
Lymphatic System | |
Function of Organs in Lymphatic System | Primary - where lymphocytes are formed and mature (Bone marrow, thymus) Secondary - arranged as a series of filters monitoring the contents of the extracellular fluids - where lymphocytes are activated. |
Cells of the immune system | |
What is Innate Immune Response? | - Non-specific - Immune components are preformed - Response magnitude similar between first & second infection - No memory stored |
First Line of Defense (Physical Barriers) | |
Second Line of Defense (Physiological Barriers) | 1. Fever (induced by pyrogens) 2. Inflammation 3. Phagocytosis 4. Antimicrobial proteins |
What is benefit of fever? | - Reduced iron availability - Inhibit microbial multiplication - Stimulate immune response |
How does inflammation works? | |
Phases of Phagocytosis | |
Antimicrobial proteins divided into 4 main types: | 1. Complement system 2. Interferons 3. Iron-binding system 4. Antimicrobial peptides |
Complement system: Overview | |
Mode of action of interferons (IFN-α IFN-β IFN-γ) | |
Why iron-binding system? (Haemoglobin, Lactoferrin, Transferrin) | - Able to inhibit enzyme activites of pathogens - Most of them require iron - They can overcome with siderophore |
Antimicrobial peptides |
