Specific immunity
has both specificity and memory
2 types
what are the 2 types of adaptive immunity

, cell mediated and antibody mediated
What is Cell Mediated Immunity
Specific immunity that only uses T cells
antibody-mediated immunity
produces antibody B cells in response to antigen. Either works alone or with Helper T
cells (humoral)
Immunogenicity
ability to provoke immune response
Reactivity
ability of antigen to react specifically to antibody it provokes
What are epitopes?
receptors on B & T cells
Binding site
B Cells in antigen processing
Recognize and bind to antigens in lymph, interstitial fluid and blood
T Cells in antigen processing
only recognize fragments of antigenic proteins (MHC)
What is antigen presentation?
the antigen-MHC complex is inserted into plasma membrane of body cell
Exogenous Antigen processing
Organism begins OUTSIDE the cell
MHC II
Endogenous Antigen Processing
Organism begins INSIDE the cell
MHC I
Cytokines
small protein hormones (paracrine secretions) that stimulate or inhibit many normal cell
functions
Interleukin 2 (IL -2)
