Q

What are the Principles of Vaccination ?

A

-Exposure of animal to a strain of an organisms that will not cause disease (avirulent strain) can provoke an immune response
-The immune response will protect the animal against a subsequent infection by a disease-producing (virulent) strain of the same or closely related organism

the study of all aspects of the immune system
Immunology
53
an area of science which helps in understanding the way by which animals gain protection from disease causing agents or pathogens
Immunology
54
infectious agents are identified as different from the “self” and defend or protect against damaging effects
Immunology
55
T/F the living animal body is cold, dry, and rich in different nutrients
False: warm and moist
55
T/F The resistance of healthy animals to microbial invasion depends on the successful defense against the microbial invaders
True
56
57
to be effective, one defense system must be available
False: multiple defence systems
58
What are the different defense systems?
-Some destroy specific organisms -Some act at the body surface to prevent invaders to enter the body -Some act within the body to destroy organisms that have breached the outer defenses -Some defend against bacterial invaders, some against viruses that live inside cells, and even some against large invaders like fungi and parasites
59
T/F the protection of the body comes from sinmple system of overlapping and interlinked defense mechanisms
False: complex system
60
What are 3 general ways in which the animal body defends itself against ?
- Physical Barriers (First line of defense) - Innate Immunity (2nd line of defense) - Acquired Immunity
61
provides an effective barrier to microbial invasion, thus, if damaged, infections may occur; but wound healing ensure that it is repaired rapidly
Intact skin
62
In other body surfaces (respiratory or GIT) simple physical defensed include the
“self-cleaning” process
63
Examples of Physical Barriers
- Intact skin - self cleaning process - In the respiratory tract - coughing, sneezing and mucus flow - In the GIT – vomiting and diarrhea - In Urinary system – Urine flow
64
second layer of defenses that consists of preexisting or rapidly responding chemical and cellular defense mechanisms
Innate Immunity (2nd line of defense)
65
one key aspect is the body’s ability to focus the innate defense mechanisms on sites of microbial invasion called
inflammation
66
The body also uses enzymes that are triggered by the presence of invaders and this form is known as the
complement system
67
Animals also possess___________________ such as carbohydrate-digesting enzyme lysozyme and many carbohydrate-binding proteins
natural antimicrobial molecules
68
________ immune system lacks any form of memory
Innate immune system
69
Components of innate immune system?
Phagocytes (Neutrophils and macrophages) Complement proteins Natural Killer cells
70
Recognize invaders, destroy them and learn from the process
Specificity
71
Recognized and remember invaders so that when it encounters them on subsequent occasions it can respond more rapidly and effectively
Memory
72
Takes at least several days to become effective
Acquired Immunity
73
immune system that is a complex and sophisticated system that provide ultimate defense of the body
Acquired immunity
74
What distinguishes innate immunity from acquired immunity?
Usage of receptors to recognize foreign invaders
75
What ar the branches od acquired immunity?
- humoral immune response - Cell- mediated Immune Response
76
Directed against extracellular or exogenous invaders; antibodies destroy these invaders since they are found in body fluids (“humors”)
Humoral Immune Response (B cells)
77
directed against intracellular or endogenous invaders that invade cells
Cell-mediated Immune Response (T cells)
78
Phases of Primary Immune Response
-Lag phase -log phase -plateau phase -decline
79
phase where no antibody is detected
Lag
80
phase in which the antibody titer rises logarithmically
Log
81
phase during which the antibody titer stabilizes
Plateau
82
phase during which the antibody is cleared or catabolized
Decline
83
Phases of Adaptive Immune Response
Recognition Activation Effector Decline Memory
84
Protection acquired by deliberate introduction of an antigen into a responsive host.
