What does immunity do
defend against bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances
types of immune defenses
innate, nonspecific, adaptive, or specific
Innate
Born with it
Adaptive immunity
develops after exposure to specific antigen
final line of def
What are the two important lymphocytes in adaptive immunity
T and B cells
chemokins
Cells that go to site of injury
Colony stimulating factors
cause bone marrow to increase cell production
where are the dendric cells
innate and adaptive
What do dendric cells help present
antigen to the adaptive system to get help
What is the process of dendric cells
dendric cells send communication from innate to adaptive to make antibodies
What are Natural killer cells
lymphocytes that mediate spontaneous cytotoxicity against infected cells
Innate cells include:
natural killer and dendric cells
adaptive cells include:
dendric cells and
Complement system
Three pathways that connect innate and adaptive
What is the first line of defense
innate immunity
What is involved in both the innate and adaptive system
dendric cells and complement system
What type of immunity recognizes microbes
Adaptive Immunity
what are the memory cells
dendric cells in adaptive immunity
helper t cells
necessary for b cells to help make antibodies
regulatory t cells
keep activated cells regulated
cytotoxic t cells
killer cells
Where do b cells mature?
bone marrow
where do t cells mature?
the thymus
IgG
Activate complement system
IgA
mucous membrane
IgM
blood type
IgD
lymphocytes
IgE
inflammation and allergic reactions
Humoral immunity
mediated by b lymphocytes and antibodies
cell mediated immunity
defense against intracellular microbes viruses, and cancer
myeloid
monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells
lymphoid
helper, regulative, cytotoxic, and NK
thymus
secrete hormones enabling lymphocyte
spleen
largest lymphatic organ
primary immune response
vaccines
secondary immune response
booster shots
active immunity
acquired through immunity or having disease
Passive Immunity
transferred from another source
