Which immunity is non-specific?
Innate immunity
What are the components of the first line of defense (innate)?
-skin

-mucuous membrane & secretions

-normal microbiota
What are the components of the second line of defense (innate)?
- phagocytic WBC

- inflammation & fever

- antimicrobial substances
What are the components of the third line of defense (adaptive)?
- lymphocytes (B & T cells)

- antibodies
What are the TWO components of the adaptive immunity?
1) Humoral

2) cell-mediated
which (innate or adaptive) immunity fast & fixed response?
innate
Which (innate or adaptive) immunity response CONSTANTLY throughout the immune response?
innate
Which (innate or adaptive) immunity has an improving response during the infection?
adaptive
Number of microorganisms vs. duration of infection graph shows the # of microorganisms constantly increasing. Which immune system is lacking?
lacking innate immunity only
Number of microorganisms vs. duration of infection graph shows the # of microorganisms increases then stabilizes. Which immune system is lacking?
lacking adaptive immunity only
Number of microorganisms vs. duration of infection graph shows the # of microorganisms increases then decreases. Which immune system is lacking?
none (normal human)
where do B cells develop?
-primary lymphoid organs

1) Fetal liver

2) Adult bone marrow
site of hematopoietic activity in fetus
liver & spleen
site of hematopoietic activity in adult
bone marrow (long bone, cranium, pelvis, sternum, ribs, vertebra)
characteristics of hematopoietic stem cells from bone marrow?
1) undifferentiated
2) pluripotent
3) self-renewing
where do B & T cells and NK cells come from?
lymphoid progenitor cell
What does the myeloid progenitor cell become?
macrophage, monocyte, neutrophil, eosinophil, basophil, platelet, RBC
where does RBC come from?
myeloid progenitor cell
which leukocyte is the most abundant in blood?
neutrophil
what cellular components of the macrophage contain microbe-killing enzymes? what does it contain?
lysosome

peroxidase & hydrolases
what are the polymorphonuclear cells?
neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils
cytoplasmic granules stain with acidic dye
eosinophil
cytoplasmic granules stain with basic dye
basophil
what does the platelet do?
1) blood clot & inflammation

2) increase capillary permeability

3) activate complement
which cell kills virus infected cells?
NK cells
where are the Antigen Presenting Cells found?
skin, lymph nodes, spleen, underneath mucosal epithelium, thymus
types of APC?
1) Langerhans cell
2) Follicular dendritic cells (FDC)
3) interdigitating dendritic cells (IDC)
4) B cells & macrophages
Are B cells & macrophages APC?
yes
what does a B cell differentiate into?
1) memory cell

2) plasma cell
What does a T cell differentiate into?
1) CD4 (T-helper1 & T-helper 2)

2) CD8 (cytotoxic)
What is responsible for the humoral immunity? Why?
B bells
--> surface receptors (Ig) are soluble.
what does T-helper cell do? What's its CD #?
produces cytokines & direct immune responses

CD4
