Defenses against any pathogen | Innate (Nonspecific) |
Specific antibody and lymphocyte response to an antigen (aquired) | Adaptive Immunity |
A substance that causes the body to produce specific antibodies or sensitized T. Cells | Antigen |
Proteins made in response to an antigen | Antibody |
Study of reactions between antibodies and Antigens | Serelogy |
Developed during an individuals lifetime. (i.e. not born with it) | Acquired Immunity |
Involves antibodies produced by B cells. | Humoral Immunity |
Involves T cells | Cell Mediated Immunity |
Resulting from infection | Naturally acquired active immunity |
Transplacental or via colostrum | Naturally acquired passive immunity |
Injection of antigens. Vaccination | Artifically acquired active immunity |
Injection of Antibodies | Artifically acquired Passive immunity |
Antibodies recognize and read with antigen determinants or epitopes | Antigenic Determinants |
bone marrow gives rise to Bcells, mature Bcells migrate to lymphoid organs, mature Bcells recognize ipitopes (from antigens | Clonal Selection |
Body doesn't normally make antibodies against self. Colonal deletion the process of destroying B and T cells that react to self antigens | Self Tolerance |
Is the amount of antibodies in serum | Antibody titer |
Natural antiserum contains polyclonal antibodies ( a mixture) but monoclonal Mab's would be more useful. | Monoclonal Antibodies |
use antibodies | T cells |
make antibodies | B cells |
Activated microphages, macrophages stimulated by ingesting antigens or by cytokines. Natural killer cells, lymphocytes thta destroy virus-infected cells or tumor cells | Nonspecific Cells |
Opsonization, cytolysis and Inflammation | complement Systems (results) |
