talk about smallpox eradication
-discovered by Jenner

Eradicated via vaccine
-used volunteer children with cowpox
-antigenically close enough
-begining of immunology

Contrevercial topic: should we keep it in a laboratory

officialy eradicated in 1979

See graph on 1/2-2
Do vaccines work
yes....smallpox and diptheria are completely erradicated.......other diseases are around 99% erradicated
Graves Disease
-hyperthyroidism
-Bulging eyes
what do bubble boys lack
-they have no immune system becasue they lack Adenosine Geaminase-breaks down purines

can also be an x-linked trait that targets the g-chain of IL molecules

The result is a near complete failure of the immune system to develop and function, with low or absent T cells and NK cells and non-functional B cells.
Most important line of defense?
skin
talk about exterior defences
1/5-1
draw primary response vs. secondary response graph
1/5-3
what is the factor for something to be exposed a second time so that the immune system responds better?
antigen must be immunologically close enough
draw clonal selection and describe
-Instead of going from 1 to 4, you go from 4 to 40

If it sees an antigen it will expand

1/6-1
Innate versus adaptive immunity

humoral versus cellular immunity

Lymph Node view and what is produced in each part

8-3
Primary lymphoid tissue
where cells form and mature

Thymus-t cells
bone marrow- B cells
Secondary Lymphoid Tissue
where mature cells interact w pathogens and initiate a response

spleen
lymph nodes
tonsils
Leukocytes with function
Neutrophil: ingest and destroy invaders

Lymphocye and plasma cells (derivative): specific response, Ab production

monocyte and macrophage(becomes macrophage once in tissue): Ingest and destroy invaders, Ag presentation

Eosinophils: Destroy invaders, particularly Ab-coated parasites- Parasites and allergic response

Basophils and mast cells (tissue): Release chemicals that mediate inflammation and allergic response

Dendritic cells (not found in blood): recognize pathogens and activate other immune cells by antigen presentation
APC types
dendrytic cells
lymphocytes
macrophages
cytotoxic cells types
eosinophils
some lymphocytes
lymphocyte types
B cells> plasma cells (secrete Ab)

T cells >

NK cells
