Pathogen Pin Macrophage Chemical signals Capillary Phagocytic cells Red blood cell Blood clotting elements Blood clot Phagocytosis Fluid, antimicrobial proteins, and clotting elements move from the blood to the site. Clotting begins. 2 Chemical signals released by activated macrophages and mast cells at the injury site cause nearby capillaries to widen and become more permeable. 1 Chemokines released by various kinds of cells attract more phagocytic cells from the blood to the injury site. 3 Neutrophils and macrophages phagocytose pathogens and cell debris at the site, and the tissue heals. 4

Figure 43.5 The human lymphatic system
1 2 3 4 Interstitial fluid bathing the tissues, along with the white blood cells in it, continually enters lymphatic capillaries. Fluid inside the lymphatic capillaries, called lymph, flows through lymphatic vessels throughout the body. Within lymph nodes, microbes and foreign particles present in the circulating lymph encounter macro- phages, dendritic cells, and lymphocytes, which carry out various defensive actions. Lymphatic vessels return lymph to the blood via two large ducts that drain into veins near the shoulders. Adenoid Tonsil Lymph nodes Spleen Peyer’s patches (small intestine) Appendix Lymphatic vessels node Masses of lymphocytes and macrophages Tissue cells vessel Blood capillary Interstitial fluid

Figurze 43.15 The central role of helper T cells in humoral and cell-mediated immune responses
After a dendritic cell engulfs and degrades a bacterium, it displays bacterial antigen fragments (peptides) complexed with a class II MHC molecule on the cell surface. A specific helper T cell binds to the displayed complex via its TCR with the aid of CD4. This interaction promotes secretion of cytokines by the dendritic cell. Proliferation of the T cell, stimulated by cytokines from both the dendritic cell and the T cell itself, gives rise to a clone of activated helper T cells (not shown), all with receptors for the same MHC–antigen complex. The cells in this clone secrete other cytokines that help activate B cells and cytotoxic T cells.

Group Choice!!!! You will be graded on the content!!!!
You will create a group project involving the steps of immunity Choose to complete one of the following: SKIT: Script a skit (with roles for other members of the class) which will portray the elements of immunological response to a specific situation. MODEL: Build a 3-dimensional physical model to convey the principles of immunological response. Media: Create a movie trailer, news story or show about the immune response. You will be graded on the content!!!!

Figure 43.16 The killing action of cytotoxic T cells
Perforin Granzymes CD8 TCR Class I MHC molecule Target cell Peptide antigen Pore Released cytotoxic T cell Apoptotic target cell Cancer Cytotoxic A specific cytotoxic T cell binds to a class I MHC–antigen complex on a target cell via its TCR with the aid of CD8. This interaction, along with cytokines from helper T cells, leads to the activation of the cytotoxic cell. 1 The activated T cell releases perforin molecules, which form pores in the target cell membrane, and proteolytic enzymes (granzymes), which enter the target cell by endocytosis. 2 The granzymes initiate apoptosis within the target cells, leading to fragmentation of the nucleus, release of small apoptotic bodies, and eventual cell death. The released cytotoxic T cell can attack other target cells. 3

Figure 43.20 Mast cells, IgE, and the allergic response
IgE antibodies produced in response to initial exposure to an allergen bind to receptors or mast cells. 1 On subsequent exposure to the same allergen, IgE molecules attached to a mast cell recog- nize and bind the allergen. 2 Degranulation of the cell, triggered by cross-linking of adjacent IgE molecules, releases histamine and other chemicals, leading to allergy symptoms. 3 Allergen IgE Histamine Granule Mast cell
