line of defense
 Three important aspects:



1. It is antigen specific
2. It is systemic
3. It has memory

 Two

Humoral immunity  antibody-mediated immunity


types of immunity:
Provided by antibodies present in body fluids
Cellular immunity  cell-mediated immunity

Targets virus-infected cells, cancer cells, and cells of foreign
grafts

 Antigens
(nonself)

Any substance capable of mobilizing the immune
system and provoking an immune response

common antigens:


Foreign proteins (strongest)
Nucleic acids
Large carbohydrates
Some lipids
Pollen grains
Microorganisms

 Human
cells have many surface proteins that
our immune cells recognize
 This


concept restricts transplant potential
Another human’s cells can trigger an immune
response because they are foreign
Blood type is a great example as agglutination
takes place with a mismatch

Lymphocytes—respond to specific antigens:
1.
B
lymphocytes (B cells)
 T lymphocytes (T cells)
2.
Antigen-presenting cells (APCs)

 Arise
from hemocytoblasts of bone marrow
 Become
immunocompetent before they
encounter the antigens they may attack


cells
develop immunocompetence in the thymus
oversee cell-mediated immunity
cells
develop immunocompetence in bone marrow
provide humoral immunity
 Both
groups move to lymph nodes to await antigen
encounters

 Engulf
antigens
 Present fragments of antigen on their own surfaces
T cells recognize these fragments
 T cells become activated
 T cells release chemicals called Cytokines which:




enhance T cell activation
Stimulate activity of other T cells
Help to activate B cells and cytotoxic T cells

 Arise
from monocytes in bone marrow
 phagocytize pathogens
 present parts of the antigens on their
surfaces, for recognition by T cells
 remain fixed in the lymphoid organs
 Secrete cytokines
