Deals with the substances usually proteins that are present in the body fluids

A

Humoral Immunity

20
Q

Deals with the substances usually proteins that are present in the body fluids

A

Humoral Immunity

21
Q

The cellular aspect of immunity deals with the cells

A

Cellular immunity

22
Q

this immunity consists of
Anatomic barriers
Resident flora
Humoral factors
Cells

A

INNATE IMMUNITY

23
Q

has memory and specificity

24
Q

Considered non adaptive or nonspecific

A

Innate Immunity

25
Response is the same for all pathogens or foreign substances after exposure
Innate Immunity
26
Defense System that is designed the keep the microorganism from entering the body: They are structural barriers that prevent most infectious agent from entering the body
External Defense System
27
This defense mechanism has no specificity and they limit the entry of all pathogens in respective of which one is trying to reach the integrity of the body
External Defense System
28
They are non-pathogenic bacteria of the intestines, vagina and nasopharynx. They prevent the colonization of new microorganisms because the new microorganism cannot establish themselves in the region where other microbes are already thriving
resident flora
29
defense mechanism that is designed to recognize the molecules that are unique to infection organism
Internal defense system
30
kind of humoral factor that is Present in tears, sebaceous, and sweat gland secretions that will cleave the cell wall of bacteria
lysozyme
31
present in tears, sebaceous and sweat glands secretions and it will bind iron which is an essential growth molecule for bacteria or microbes restricting the amount of iron that is essential for the growth of bacteria
lactoferrin
32
Present in stomach which will digest bacterial surface protein and that would bind to cells that are present in the intestinal laminae
pepsin
33
Provide host defense because many organisms cannot survive the acidic environment of the stomach and they are destroyed before entering the small intestine.
stomach acidity
34
Made up of family of proteins (around 30 proteins) whose coordinated actions will lead to the destruction of microorganisms particularly the extracellular bacteria
complement
35
Cells that are present in the bone marrow (bone marrow derived cells). They are recruited when the initial barriers have been breach and antigens sub succeeded in entering the body
Cellular defense
36
Cells that will engulf and destroy foreign substances and microorganism
phagocytes
37
Eliminate virally infected cells
neutrophils
38
Eliminates helminths
eosinophils
39
release substances into the local micro-environment that can facilitate recruitment of immune cells to the site of infection
mast cells and basophils
