Fundamentals of ImmunologyByDr. Gouse Mohiddin Shaik

Fundamentals of immunologyWhat is immunityYou can not prosecutediplomats– they have immunity

Fundamentals of immunologyImmunity – is the ability of host to defense itself from foreign harmful organismsNot all defensemechanismsconstituteimmunity

Fundamentals of immunology Immunity – is the ability of host to defendit self from invading foreign harmfulorganisms and altered self proteins orcells

Types of immunityImmunityAcquired / adaptiveInnate / inbornSpecificNon-specificPhysical barriersSkin, Saliva, Mucous,Stomach acid, Tears1st line of defensePhagocytosis (PAMP – PRR)Antimicrobial proteinsDefisins2nd Line of defense3rd line of gG injection)

Basic terms of immunology Antigen – A molecule that stimulatesimmune response (generally proteins) Hapten – Small portion of antigen whichby it self can not elicit immune reaction Epitope – Part of Antigen recognized bythe immune system Antibody – protein (globulin) which isreactive against specific antigen Paratope – part of antibody whichrecognizes the antigen

Basic terms of immunology Cytokines – are proteins used for intercellular communication and intra cellularsignalling pathways Interleukins are kind of cytokines Immunization – is the means ofproviding specific protection against adamaging pathogen Tolerance – refers to an antigen inducedspecific unresponsiveness

Basic terms of immunology Autoimmunity – failure of immunesystem to develop tolerance for selfproteins and starting immune response Immunological memory – capacity ofimmune system to remember a antigenand react more vigorously upon reexposure of the same antigen Involves B cells and T cells

Immunological memory Immunological memoryUpon secondary exposure there will be boost ofimmunity

Basic terms of immunology Inflammation – a set of physiologicalreactions to damage of tissue integrity,leading to protection against infection,localization and restriction of damagedsite and finally to healing Reddening (rubor) Swelling (tumor) Pain (dolar) Increased temperature (calor)

Organs of immune system Bone marrowSpleenThymusLymphaticsystem

Main ogans of immune system Bone marrow Source of stemcells Maturing site forB cells In Birds B cellsmature in Bursa offabricius

Main organs of immune system Spleen Effective againstblood bornpathogens Replaces old RBC Producescomplementcomponents Have macrophages

Main organs of immune system Thymus Development and differentiation of T cells Where T cell education happens Self and non self discrimination
