the state of protection from infectious disease
Immunity
What are the two divisions of innate immunty and adaptive immunity
cellular and humoral
-non specific or natural immunity
-1st line of defense
-non-specific/ non adaptive to pathogen exposure
-External and internal defense systems
-Immeadiately available
Innate immunity
cellular involvement of innate immunity incolves? (4)
nuetros, eos, baso, monos. NOT lymphs
humoral involvement of innate immunity
complement (alternate) pathway
-specific or acquired immunity
-high degree of specificity
-adaptive immune response (immunologic memory)
-memory response with 2nd response being quicker and stronger
-self/ non-self recognition
Adaptive immunity
cellular involvement of adaptive immunity
-lymphocytes (T memory cells)
-B cells (B- memory and plasma cells)
humoral involvement of adaptive immunity
- antibodies
- complement (classic) pathway
Interactive network 1st and 2nd line of defense is which type of immunity?
innate immunity
3rd line of defense is which type of immunity?
adaptive immunity
Two types of immunity
Innate and adaptive
1st line of defense of defense includes what two components
physical & biochemical component
physical components of innate immunity include...
intact skin, mucous membrances, cilia, cough/reflect sneeze
biochemical components of innate immunity include...
secretions: sweat, saliva, tears
Innate immunity mechanisms of external defense. (1st line)
physical components and biochemichal components
Innate immunity mechanisms of internal defense. (2nd line)
cellular components and humoral/biochemical components
cellular components of innate immunity include? (7)
nuetro, monos, tissue macrophages, dendritic cells, eos, basos, NK cells
Humoral/biochemical components of innate INTERNAL defense includes?
-complement (alternate) pathway
-cytokines
-acute inflammatory reactions
signal more potent cells to site of injury or inflammationa and includes interluekins (IL) and interferons (INF)
cytokines
name the 5 steps of phagocytosis in innate immunty internal defense
1. attachment of bacterium
2. ingestion
3. fusion and release of lysosomal enzymes
4. digestion
5. release of digested products
in phagocytosis, when the some and the cell are in ingestion what are they now called?
phagolysosome
-predominant cell in circulation
-usually 1st phagocytic WBC at site of injury/ infection
- stimulated by presence of ab or inactivated complement components
Neutrophils
-can also be found in tissues as macrophages
-have digestive vacuoles
-fine granules w/ peroxidase, acid phosphotase, B- glucoronidase, lysozymes, and lipase
-predominant cell at inflimmation site in LATE stage of reaction
monocytes
-increased endoplasmic reticulum lysosomes
- longer life span
- tissue locations(aveolar, kuppfer cells, microglial, histocytes)
Tissue macrophages (monocytes)
-most potent
-highest endocytic activity
dendritic cells
-large granular lymphocytes
-*plays role in EARLY stages of viral infection and tumorgenisis
-INL-2--> anti cancer agent that helps to break down tumors
NK cells
-hypersensitivity rxn's
-have surface membrane receptor sites for Fc portion of IgE immunoglobulins
-granules: histamine chemoactiv factor, small amount of heparin
Basophils
-increased in severe allergic rxn's (like hay fever)
-increased in parasitic infections
-nuetralized basophil products
eosinophils
-APRs
- Increased synthesis after tissue injury, increased concentration at site of injury and in plasma, increased in wound healing
innate immunity- soluble factors
-C reactive protein
- complement
-haptoglobin
-fibrinogen (APR)
- a-1 antitrypsin
-ceruloplasmin
- serum amyloid A
innate immunity soluble factors
-binds to C-polysaccharide wall, found on bacteria and fungi
-increased w/in 4-6 hrs of injury, peaks at 24 hrs.
-widely used as indicator of acute inflammation( you wont see it in any chronic condition)
-activator of complement pathway
C- reactive protein
- risk factor for MI
-gives false negative in latex agg. test
-must used 1/5 dilution in latex agg. test
C- reactive protein
-group of serum proteins
-circulates inactive, turned on by specific or non- specific immunologic mechanisms
- has three different biochemical pathways
Complement
name the three different biochemical pathways of complement soluble factor
1- classical (adaptive)
2. alternate (innate)
3. lectin pathway

* all lead to same result*
adds something to bacteria that makes it more appealing to the phagocyte for phagocytosis to occur
opsonization
-binds irreversibly to free hgb
-increased 2-4x after injury
-will at first show a decrease, but later show an increase
Haptoglobin
-APR
-increases tensile strength of wound( holds it together like a web)
Fibrinogen
-helps clean up enzyme activity
-general plasma inhibitor of protease
-counteracts degrading enzyme activity
a-1 antitrypsin (AAT)
-copper transfer
-cytochrome C oxidase (phagocytosis)
ceruloplasmin
-traffic controller and chemical signaling
-promotes adhesion and chemotaxis of phagocytic cells and lymphocytes
serum amyloid A
