Daily Warm-up March 19th During the Quarter Quell, Katniss Everdeen searches for water in the arena. Before she found it, she began to become dehydrated. What would happen because of this in terms of ADH? How would this help her condition? HW: -Read 35.1 Turn in: -Nothing
2
Animals and Immune Systems
Animals are the only organisms with major immune systems Help defend against pathogens= disease-causing agents Ex. Bacteria, fungi, protists, viruses 2 major components Innate immunity Adaptive immunity Response to specific pathogens Both ways require molecular recognition
3
Innate Immunity Found in all animals and plants Invertebrates
Hard exoskeleton in insects Immune cells- phagocytosis
5
Innate Immunity of Vertebrates
Barrier Defenses (external) Skin Mucous membranes Other body secretions Ex. Lysozyme Acidic environment of stomach Ciliated epithelia
6
Innate Immunity of Vertebrates Continued
Cellular Innate Defenses (internal) Phagocytic cells Macrophages Natural killer cells Release chemicals Lymphatic system helps
7
Innate Immunity Continued
Pathogen presence triggers polypeptide and protein production Interferons- proteins that help with viral infections Complement System -Proteins in plasma that can lead to lysis of invading cells
8
Innate Immunity Continued
Inflammatory response Signaling molecules released upon injury or infection Swelling and pain Molecules (cytokines and histamine) to increase blood flow to site of injury or infection *Fever
9
Daily Warm-up March 20th What is one example of innate immunity? HW: -Read 35.2 Turn in: -Nothing
10
Adaptive Immunity Pathogen-specific recognition
Relies on T cells and B cells White blood cells known as lymphocytes Anything that brings about response from the cells is known as an antigen Usually proteins or polysaccharides Pathogen recognition is done by an antigen receptor on T and B cells
11
Antigen Recognition by B cells and Antibodies
B cells have membrane-bound antigen receptors Antibodies- proteins secreted by cells rather than membrane-bound
13
Antigen Recognition by T Cells
T cells bind only to fragments of antigens MHC molecule- protein on cell that displays fragment of antigen
14
Adaptive Immunity Characteristics
Immense diversity of lymphocytes and receptors Allow your body to respond to pathogens that have never been encountered Self-tolerance Not attack self Cell proliferation triggered by activation Increases number of B and T cells specific for an antigen Stronger and more rapid response to an antigen encountered previously Immunological memory
15
Generation of B and T Cell Diversity
1 million different B cell receptors, 10 million T cell Only 20,000 protein-coding genes How can this happen?
16
Origin of Self-Tolerance
How does body know self? Lymphocytes are tested for self-reactivity during development If have antigen receptors for body, the cell is destroyed
17
Proliferation of B and T cells
Binding of an antigen receptor to an epitope starts events Activates B cell or T cell Once activated, begin cellular divisions Clones are effector cells B cells= plasma cells which secrete antibodies T cells= helper T cells and cytotoxic T cells Memory cells= give rise to effector cells if same antigen is encountered later
19
Immunological Memory Primary Immune Response
Production of effector cells during first exposure to antigen Secondary Immune Response Later exposure Much faster response (2 days) Prolonged response Adaptive!!!
21
What is the difference between B cells and T cells? HW: -Read 35.3
Daily Warm-up March 21st What is the difference between B cells and T cells? HW: -Read 35.3
22
2 Types of Adaptive Immunity
Humoral Occurs in body fluids Antibodies eliminate pathogens and toxins Cell-mediated T cells destroy infected host cells ***Both can have a primary and secondary immune response ***Both use helper T cells
23
Helper T cells Trigger both humoral and cell-mediated responses
Release signals that lead to production of antibodies and activate cytotoxic T cells 2 requirements for helper T cell to activate either response Foreign molecule must bind to antigen receptor of T cell Antigen must be displayed on surface of antigen-presenting cell -Ex. B cell or macrophage
24
What is an antigen-presenting cell?
Two classes of MHC molecules Most cells have only MHC I Antigen presenting have MHC I and II Class II provides the correct molecular signature by which a cell is recognized
26
Cell-mediated Response and Cytotoxic T cells
Activated helper T cells can activate cytotoxic T cells Use toxic proteins (enzymes) to disrupt membrane and trigger cell death
27
B Cells and Antibodies B cells secrete antibodies in the humoral response Activation occurs by helper T cells B cell divides, becoming plasma cells and memory B cells Antibodies do not kill pathogen directly but marks them and can also inactivate the pathogen Ex. Virus inactivation
29
Active Immunity vs. Passive Immunity
Active immunity: defenses that arise when a pathogen infects the body Passive immunity: Antibodies in recipient are produced by another individual Ex. Fetus and mother Breast milk and infant Vaccination/immunization
30
Disruptions in Immune System Regulation
Allergies Allergens Trigger release of histamines and inflammatory chemicals
31
Autoimmune Disease Attack against certain molecules of the body
Ex. Lupus Antibodies that tag histones and DNA Ex. Rheumatoid arthritis More females affected than males Unknown why this is….
