injecting antigen to cause immunity by inducing a
protective immune response against specific
immunization (vaccination)
organism or its associated toxin prior to the encounter
with the pathogen
study of host rxns when foreign substances are
immunology
introduced
serology study of noncellular components in the blood (ag/ab)
"foreign" substance that stimulates the generation of
antigen (immunogen) (ag) an immune response. ags can be harmful or harmless
environmental substances
antibody glycoprotein; made in response to ag
(immunoglobulin) (ab)
epitope ab binding site; single ag site
increased resistance to infection which often follows
immunity
recovery from an initial exposure
immunological confers health by responding and controlling
homeostasis infection with moderation
, nonspecific; protection always present in healthy
innate/natural immunity
individuals; normal body fxns; first line of defense
ag nonspecific, rapid what are the characteristics of natural/innate
response (minutes), and immunity?
no memory (splinter story)
specific; induced/stimulated by non self foreign
substances that invade tissue or against infected cells
adaptive/acquired
and tumors; defend against specific invaders thus
immunity
protection result of prior experience with ag;
mediated by lymphocytes
ag specific, slow response what are the characteristics of adaptive/acquired
(days), and memory immunity?
epithelial barriers, what are some examples of innate/natural immunity in
phagocytes, and the body?
inflammation
humoral immunity and cell what are the types of adaptive/acquired immunity?
mediated immunity
which adaptive/acquired immunity is mediated by abs
produced by B lymphs-> secreted into
humoral immunity
circulation/mucosal fluids ->finally neutralize and
eliminate extracellular microbes/microbial toxins?
which adaptive/acquired immunity is mediated by T
lymphs and products in which some T lymphs produce
cell mediated immunity substances to activate phagocytes and destroy
intracellular microbes and kill host cells harboring
intracellular microbes?
what are two ways adaptive/acquired immunity is
active and/or passive
induced?
which stimulated pathway in adaptive/acquired
immunity involves abs made by the host, infection or
active
vaccination, and induces long lived resistance?
EX: use of vaccines against HVB, measles, polio, etc.
