Introduction to Immunology
Immune system
Not a specific organ or tissue
Include various cells, tissue and organs
Working collectively
Defend against harmful pathogens, cells and subtances
Cell of the immune system
Leukocytes
Have nuclei
Involves in phagocytosis, inflammation,adaptive immune response
Platelets
Do not have nuclei
Involved in inflammation and blood clotting
Lines of denfence
First line
External physical barriers
e.g: skin
Second line
Internal physiology barriers
e.g: inflammation
create hostile environment for the invaders
4 components
Fever
Initiated by pyrogens
Change the settings of hypothalamus
Benefits
Reduced iron availability
Inhibition of microbial multiplication
Increase metabolic rate
Inflammation
Classical symptoms
Redness
heat
Pain
Odema
Releases of cytokinese
Vasodilation
Phagocytosis
Phagocytes
Possess lysosome
Antimicrobial proteins
Complement system
Consists 30 proteins
Work in cascade reactions to destroy pathogens
3 pathways
Classical
Lectin
Alternative
Interferons
Are cytokines involved in immune regulation, particularly against viruses
3 Major types
IFN-alpha
IFN-beta
IFN-Gamma
Iron binding proteins
Many pathogens require iron for enzyme activities
Limit their growth
Hemoglobin, Lactoferrin ,Transferrin
Antimicrobial peptides
Short proteins less than 50 peptides
Kills bacteria by inserting themselves into the membranes
Examples
Bacteriocins
Defensins
Magainins
Protegrins
Third line
Adaptive immune response
Component of immune system
Cardiovascular system
Heart and blood vessels
Mononuclear Phagocyte System
Network of reticular fibre
Phagocytes (macrophages)
Lymphatic system
Organs
Primary lymphoid organs
Bone marrow & thymus
Production sites of immune system
Maturation sites for immune system in the absence of antigen
Secondnary lymphoid organs
Adenoid,Tonsils,Lymph nodes, Spleen ,MALT
Maturation sites for antigen driven immune cells
Lymph circulatory system
Lymphatic vessels
