Immune system
• One of the basic homeostatic mechanisms
of the body.
• Its function is the recognition of
foreign/dangerous substances.
• The dangerous substances trigger
complex reactions which result in
elimination of those substances.

Immune system
• Recognizes foreign/dangerous substances
from the environment (mainly microbes)
• Is involved in elimination of old and
damaged cells of the body.
• Attacks tumor and virus-infected cells.

Functions of the immune system
• Deffence
• Autotolerance
• Immune surveillance

Antigen
• Substance, that is recognised by the
immune system as a foreign and triggers
immune reaction (immunogenicity).
• Products of the immune reaction
(antibodies, T-lymphocytes) react with the
antigen.

Requirements of immunogenicity
• Foreign (unknown) for the immune system
• High molecular weight (> 6 kDa)
• Chemical complexity

Antigen – basic components
• Carrier part of the molecule
• Antigenic determinant- epitope (cca 5-7
aminoacids)
![Page 8: Immunology-introduction › ... › Immunology_I_introduction.pdfRoitt/Broskoff/Male: IMMUNOLOGy, 4th ed Title Snímek 1 Author prof. Lokaj Created Date 9/23/2011 10:02:49 PM ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022041023/5ed5e2cf88ceff7b0f67d0d4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Antigen and epitope
![Page 9: Immunology-introduction › ... › Immunology_I_introduction.pdfRoitt/Broskoff/Male: IMMUNOLOGy, 4th ed Title Snímek 1 Author prof. Lokaj Created Date 9/23/2011 10:02:49 PM ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022041023/5ed5e2cf88ceff7b0f67d0d4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Chemical composition of antigents
• Proteins – usually very good antigens.
• Polysacharides- usually only as a part of
glycoproteins.
• Nucleic acids- poor antigenicity, limited to
complexes with proteins
• Lipids – only exceptionally, best known are
sfingolipids.

Hapten
• Low-molecular weight substances that trigger
immune reaction after binding to various
proteins of the body.
• They react with products of the immune reaction.
• Typical examples are metals (Cr, Ni) that trigger
type IV immunopathological reactions. Drugs
(antibiotics, local anestetics) cause type I
immunopathological reaction.

Cross reactivity of antigens
• Products of the immune reaction may, in some
conditions, react with substances that are very
different from the initial immunogen.
• Immunological cross-reactivity not necessary
mean similar chemical composition.
• The degree of cross reactivity may be different.
• Cross reactivity is important in pathogenesis of
several autoimmune diseases.

Cross reactivity of antigens

Adjuvants
• Substances, that when mixed with antigen,
non-specifically enhance immune reaction
against the antigen.
• Freud´s adjuvant: killed Mycobacterium
tuberculosis + water-in-oil emulsion. Used
in veterinary medicine.
• Alum precipitate - AL(OH)3 - used in
human medicine

Two branches of the immune
response
• Innate, nonspecific – very quickly
recognizes most foreign substances and
eliminates them. There is no memory.
• Adaptive, specific – high degree of
specificity in distinction between self and
non-self. The reaction requires several
days to be effectively triggered. There is
immune memory.
