What if the barrier is breached?
Immunological Defense
Tonsils: ring of lymphatic tissue (lymphatic nodules
or follicles) at entrance to respiratory and digestive
tracts
micro.magnet.fsu.edu/optics/intelplay/gallery...
Adenoids: lymphatic tissue located high
on the posterior wall of the pharynx.
- similar to tonsils
- clear antigens from air
- reduced in adults
- can be enlarged / inflamed
SYMPTOMS:
-mouth breathing
-snoring
-bad breath
-chronic runny nose
-sleep apnea
-pulmonary hypertension
-right-sided heart failure
Immunological Defense
Gut-associated lymphatic tissue (GALT): diffuse
lymphatic tissue and lymphatic nodules in lamina
propria of small and large intestine
Striking in Ileum and Appendix => Peyer’s Patches
MALT=Mucous associated lymphatic Tissue
Immunological Defense: Lymphatic Tissue
Plasma Cells secrete a special form of antibody,
==> secreted IgA
-Dimeric
-Linked via J chain and
secretory component
-More stable
-More resistant to
enzymatic digestion
-in saliva, milk, and
mucous membranes of
respiratory and
digestive tracts
Possible modes of defense
mediated by IgA binding to its
receptor, pIgR, (the secretory
component , SC).
(a) pIgR-driven export of
dimeric IgA with J chain
(IgA+J)
(b) Neutralization of infecting
virus and transport of viral
products from the lumen.
(c) Intracellular neutralization
of endotoxin (LPS) from
Gram-negative bacteria.
(d) Clearance of antigen (Ag)
that has breached the
mucosal barrier.

Lubrication: Mucous Secretions
Esophagus- Lubrication and protection from
regurgitation of acidic stomach contents
Stomach- surface mucous cells; mucous protects
from abrasion, contains bicarbonate; protects
mucosa from acidic stomach contents (chyme)
Small Intestine- goblet cells, # increases from
duodenum=> ileum
Large Intestine- goblet cells, # increases toward
rectum

Secretion / Digestion / Absorption
What signals might trigger release of hormones
and digestive enzymes?
Gastrin secretion: release from stomach
