immunity
"free from burden"

protection of body from a disease caused by infectious agent

innate
adaptive
primary lymphoid system
tissues that are responsible for generation of lympoid cells that respond to foreign antibodies

-bone marrow
-thymus
bone marrow
primary lymphoid

produce:
eryhtrocytes
platelets
WBCs
lymphocytes
secondary lymphoid system
contirbute to innate (phagocytize), adaptive immunity

-lymph nodes
-spleen
-tonsils
-appedix
-peyer's patches
lymph nodes
nodular tissue along lymphatic channels, react to antigens in lymph
spleen
responsible for reaction with Ag in blood
tonsils
contain lyphocytes that contribue to immune defenses
appendix
haven for useful bacteria when flushed away by illness
peyer's patches
major site of antibody production against mucosal pathogens
blood
60%, 40% cellular (RBC, WBC, platelets)
leukocytes
WBC
defensive in innate/adaptive

2 types- granulocyte (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils), agranulocyte (monocyte, lymphocyte)
mast cell
associated with allergy
phagocyte
big eater
dendritic cells
in spleen/lymph nodes, like phagocytes
fibroblast
produce CT, cytokines (immune resp)
innate immunity
natural defense of organ systems
-physical: skin, mucous membrane
chemical: saliva, mucus, gastric juice, lysozyme
natural killer cell
lymphocyte that kill intracellular viruses/cancer cells
interferon
molecular defense

protein enhances lymphocytes
production of anti-viral protein
inflammation triggers
physical: cut
chemical: acid/base
biological: MO
cells in inflammation
mast cell- histamine/prostaglandin prod
neutrophil- react quickly
macrophage- engulf foreigners
fibroblast- cytokine/CT prod
imflammation/healing process
hemodynamic change: vasodilation
permeability change: swelling
leukocyte changes
margination
leukocytes adhere to blood vessel wall
pavementing
leukocytes adhere to capillary wal
emigration
leukocytes pass through blood vessel
chemotaxis
leukocytes that move toward chemical
phagocytosis
phagosome- organelle that holds foreign material

phagolysosome: phagosome + lysossome
clinical manifestations of inflammation
-redness
-heat
-swelling
-pain
-fever (100.5, very high- 104.5, fatal- 109; normal-98), induced by pyrogen
clinical measure to relieve inflamation
-antihistamine
-aspirin/ibuprofen
-icepack
accute
untreated for days-weeks
host wins
chronic
untreated for months-years
parasite continues to cause damage
