[P] Lec 02.1: Innate Immunity Flashcards
(82 cards)
Which are innate and adaptive?
- limited (can differentiate but not specify the pathogen
- can further differentiate what specific pathogen or nonself antigen is invading the body
- Innate
- Adaptive
Specify which is intracellular and extracellular.
- immune response mounted is cell-mediated (cell-cell; phagocytosis or T Cell mediated)
- immune response mounted is humoral (production of antibodies)
- Intracellular
- Extracellular
Refers to:
- the study of a host’s reactions when foreign substances are introduced into the body.
● a science has its roots in the study of immunity, the condition of being resistant to infection.
Immunology
Foreign substance that induces such an immune response
Antigen
Enumerate the desirable consequences of immunity
- Natural resistance
- Recovery
- Acquired resistance to infectious diseases
Innate or adaptive
- Host response to foreign agents that depends on T and B lymphocytes and is characterized by specificity, memory, and recognition of self
versus non-self. - Response increases upon repeated exposure
Adaptive
Innate or adaptive
- Ability of an individual to resist infections by means of normally present body functions
- Response is constant
Innate
Effector cells of innate immunity
Neutrophils
Basophils
Eosinophils
Monocytes
Mast cell
Dendritic cell
Effector cells of the adaptive immunity
B cell
T cell
Specify which items below are effector substances of innate or adaptive immunity
- Granule, Acute phase reactants, Cytokines
- Antibodies, cytokines
- Innate
- Adaptive
Key features of Innate Immunity
- Accomplished by mechanical mechanisms, chemical mediators, cells, and the inflammatory response. And it standardized responses for all ages.
- The immune response is the same for all types of pathogens.
- Normally present body functions and is the primary line of defense (Present at birth).
- Can’t remember previous pathogens–the mechanism does not alter on repeated exposure to any specific antigen
A. Natural
B. Non-specific
C. Simple
D. No memory
- Simple (C)
- Non-specific (B)
- Natural (A)
- No memory (D)
Key features of Adaptive Immunity
- I.S. must “meet” or be primed by an initial exposure to a specific foreign substance–antigen (not present at birth). Also, it supplements the protection provided by innate immunity.
- It recognizes and targets particular pathogens
- First Exposure is not that effective; slow, takes time (unlike following exposure/s where the I.S. can counter the pathogen more efficiently)
- Diverse response for each age group
- Can remember pathogens and recalls previous antigens with memory
A. Acquired
B. Specific
C. Complex
D. Has memory
- Acquired
- Specific
- Acquired
- Complex
- Has memory
What are the two major mechanisms of the Immune System?
Primary response and Secondary response
Refers to:
● After exposure to an antigen, there is a latent period (LAG PHASE) of approximately 5 to 15 days before antibody appears in the serum.
● Slow and easily declines
● The antibody titer increases, plateaus, then decreases.
● IgM is the first immunoglobulin to appear.
The Primary Response
Lag phase of primary response
5 to 15 days
First immunoglobulin to appear in the primary response
IgM
Refers to:
- there is a rapid antibody response, usually within 2 to 4 days after antigen exposure faster than the primary response
● IgG is the predominant immunoglobulin
The Secondary Response
Predominant immunoglobulin in the secondary response
IgG
- First line of defense
- Second line of defense
- Third line of defense
A. Non-specific
B. Specific
1 and 2. Non-specific (A)
3. Specific (B)
- Skin, mucous membranes, secretion of the skin
- Lymphocytes, antibodies, memory cells
- Phagocytic WBCs, antimicrobial protein, inflammatory response, fever
A. First line of defense
B. Second line of defense
C. Third line of defense
- First line
- Third line
- Second line
Components of innate immunity
- Physical, chemical, and mechanical barriers
- Physiologic, peptide, cellular, inflammation, phagocytosis, Non-cellular components
A. Second-line/Internal defense
B. First line/External defense
- B
- A
Determinants of natural resistance
- Given pathogenic microorganism which is capable of producing disease in species but not in another one animal
- Whitin one animal species, they may be marked racial and genetic differences in susceptibility
- Differences are evident due to the presence of natural antibodies against certain microorganism
A. Racial immunity
B. Individual immunity
C. Specie immunity
- C
- A
- B
