Characteristics of Immunity
• Recognition of self versus non-self• Response is specific• Retains a “memory” allowing an
accelerated second response• Can respond to many different
materials• Involves lymphocytes and
antibodies
![Page 17: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Types of Immunity
• Active Immunity- Naturally-Acquired Active Immunity- Artificially-Acquired Active Immunity
• Passive Immunity- Naturally-Acquired Passive Immunity- Artificially-Acquired Passive Immunity
![Page 18: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Types of Acquired Immunity
![Page 19: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• The production of antibodies against a specific disease by the immune system.
• Naturally acquired through disease
• Artificially acquired through vaccination – Vaccines include inactivated toxins, killed
microbes, parts of microbes, and viable but weakened microbes.
• Active immunity is usually permanent
Active Immunity
![Page 20: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• A vaccinated person has a secondary response based on memory cells when encountering the specific pathogen.– Routine immunization against infectious
diseases such as measles and whooping cough, and has led to the eradication of smallpox, a viral disease.
– Unfortunately, not all infectious agents are easily managed by vaccination.• HIV vaccine in the works
![Page 21: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• Passive Immunity- Protection against disease through antibodies produced by another human being or animal.
• Effective, but temporary
• Ex. Maternal antibodies
• Colostrum.
Passive Immunity
![Page 22: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Passive immunity can be transferred artificially by injecting antibodies from an animal that is already immune to a disease into another animal.– Rabies treatment: injection with antibodies
against rabies virus that are both passive immunizations (the immediate fight) and active immunizations (longer term defense).
![Page 23: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Immune System Response to Antigens
Humoral Immunity• Involves antibodies (secreted from B
cells) dissolved in the blood plasma.• Demonstrated as a immune response
using only the blood serum.• Defense against bacteria, bacterial
toxins, & viruses.
![Page 24: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Cell-Mediated Immunity• Involves the activities of specific
white blood cells (T cells).• Defense against cancer cells, virus-
infected cells, fungi, animal parasites, & foreign cells from transplants.

B Cells
• Mature in bone marrow• Involved in humoral immunity• Once activated by antigen,
proliferate into two clones of cells: plasma cells that secrete antibodies and memory cells that may be converted into plasma cells at a later time

• Antibodies constitute a group of globular serum proteins called immunoglobins (Igs).– A typical antibody molecule has two identical
antigen-binding sites specific for the epitope that provokes its production.

Mechanisms on Antibody Action
• Precipitation of soluble antigens• Agglutination of foreign cells• Neutralization• Enhanced phagocytosis• Complement activation leading to cell lysis• Stimulates inflammation
![Page 39: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
• The binding of antibodies to antigens to form antigen-antibody complexes is the basis of several antigen disposal mechanisms.

Overview of Immune System Responses
![Page 43: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
T Cells
• Mature in thymus• Involved in cell-mediated immunity• Activated when another cell
presents antigen to them• Several types of T cells: cytoxic T
cells, helper T cells, suppressor T cells, and memory T cells
![Page 44: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
• There are two main types of T cells, and each responds to one class of MHC molecule.– Cytotoxic T cells (TC) have antigen receptors
that bind to protein fragments displayed by the body’s class I MHC molecules.
– Helper T cells (TH) have receptors that bind to peptides displayed by the body’s class II MHC molecules.

–T-independent antigens• T cells activated by binding to certain
antigens
• No memory cells generated
• Weaker response than t-dependent
–T-dependent antigens• Most antigens require co-stimulation to
evoke a B-cell response
• Antibody production stimulated with help from TH
• Most antigens are t-dependent
![Page 51: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
• T-dependent antigens- can trigger a humoral immune response by B cells only with the participation of helper T cells.

• Malfunctions of the immune system can produce effects ranging from the minor inconvenience of some allergies to the serious and often fatal consequences of certain autoimmune and immunodeficiency diseases.
Abnormal immune function can lead to disease

• Transmission of HIV requires the transfer of body fluids containing infected cells, such as semen or blood, from person to person.– Unprotected sex – Nonsterile needles – HIV transmission among heterosexuals is
rapidly increasing as a result of unprotected sex with infected partners.
– HIV in Africa and Asia- primarily by heterosexual sex
![Page 67: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
AIDS• In 1983, a retrovirus, now called human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV), had been identified as the causative agent of AIDS.
![Page 68: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
• With the AIDS mortality close to 100%, HIV is the most lethal pathogen ever encountered.– Molecular studies reveal that the virus probably
evolved from another HIV-like virus in chimpanzees in central Africa and appeared in humans sometimes between 1915 and 1940.• These first rare cases of infection and AIDS went
unrecognized.
![Page 69: Ch 43 immunity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/54534727af7959c23b8b4970/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)

• HIV Testing:– The HIV antibody test has be used to screen
