THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
We are constantly exposed to an incredible diversity of bacteria, viruses, and parasites
How does the immune system protect us?
The key isour ability to produce more than 108 distinct antibodies and more than 1012 T-cell receptors
04/11/2023 09:53:42 PM 3
The immune system has 2 arms
Innate immunity
Adaptive immunity

The Immune System is the Third Line of Defense Against Infection

Immune response
• The specific reactivity induced in a host by an antigenic stimulus
2 TYPES:
1. Humoral (AMI)
2. Cellular (CMI)
04/11/2023 09:53:42 PM 7
LYMPHOCYTES INVOLVED IN THE IMMUNE RESPONSE
B lymphocytes T lymphocytes
Mainly derived from bone marrow
T lymphocytes are of thymic origin
HUMORAL IMMUNITY CELLMEDIATED IMMUNITY
04/11/2023 09:53:43 PM 8
• The production of antibodies consists of 3 steps
Humoral Immune response(AMI)
Entry Processing Secretion
Afferent limb Central limb Efferent limb
04/11/2023 09:53:43 PM 9
Antibody production follows a characteristic pattern
Lag phase Log phase Plateau or steady state
Phase of decline

Fate of antigen in tissues
Antigen Introduced I.V SPLEEN
LIVER BM
KIDNEY LUNGS
Broken down by RE cells
70-80% Excreted in the urineEliminated within 1 or 2 days
Introduced S.C
Draining lymph nodes
04/11/2023 09:53:43 PM 12
Fate of antigen in tissues
• Antigens are removed from circulation in 2 phases
Non-immune phase Phase of immune elimination
04/11/2023 09:53:43 PM 13
PRODUCTION OF ANTIBODIES
• Immune response to an antigen is brought about by 3 type of cells
APC T-cells B-cells

04/11/2023 09:53:44 PM 15
ANTIGEN-PRESENTING CELLS
Macrophages
Dendritic cells
B lymphocytes
Follicular dendritic cells
04/11/2023 09:53:44 PM 16
Major Histocompatibility Complex
• The task of displaying cell-associated antigens for recognition by T cells is performed by specialized proteins that are encoded by genes in a locus called the MHC
2 TYPES
Class I MHC
Class II MHC

T Cells Only Recognize Antigen Associated with MHC Molecules on Cell Surfaces
T cell recognize with the help of T cell receptor

Factors influencing antibody production
Genetic Age Nutrition
Route of administration
Size & number of doses Multiple antigens
Adjuvants Immunosuppressive drugs Effect of antibody

CELLULAR IMMUNE RESPONSE (CMI)
Specific immune response that do not involve antibodies.
Delayed hypersensitivity
Immunity in infections
Transplantation immunity
Immunological surveillance
Autoimmune disease
Scope of CMI
04/11/2023 09:53:45 PM 30
Induction of CMI
• Antigenic stimulus• Only T-cell dependant antigens lead to CMI• T-cell bears specific receptor on its surface• T cells recognize antigens only when
presented with MHC molecules• Helper T-cells• Cytotoxic T-cells
04/11/2023 09:53:45 PM 31
CYTOKINES• Biologically active substances released by
activated T lymphocytes were called LYMPHOKINES
• Similar substance produced by Monocytes Macrophages
