AP Biology Start and review with the masteringbiology.com Immunology video masteringbiology.com Another good one from McGraw-HillMcGraw-Hill Immune system game by NobelPrize.orgNobelPrize.org

AP Biology Avenues of attack Points of entry digestive system respiratory system urogenital tract break in skin Routes of attack circulatory system lymph system
5
AP Biology Why an immune system? Attack from outside lots of organisms want you for lunch! animals are a tasty nutrient- & vitamin-packed meal cells are packages of macromolecules animals must defend themselves against invaders (pathogens) viruses HIV, flu, cold, measles, chicken pox bacteria pneumonia, meningitis, tuberculosis Lyme disease fungi yeast (“Athlete’s foot”…) protists amoeba, malaria Attack from inside cancers = abnormal body cells Mmmmm, What’s in your lunchbox?
6
AP Biology Lines of defense 1st line: Non-specific barriers broad, external defense “walls & moats” skin & mucous membranes 2nd line: Non-specific patrols broad, internal defense “patrolling soldiers” leukocytes = phagocytic WBC 3rd line: True immune system specific, acquired immunity “elite trained units” lymphocytes & antibodies B cells & T cells Bacteria & insects inherit resistance. Vertebrates acquire immunity.
7
AP Biology Pathogens (such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses) INNATE IMMUNITY (all animals) Rapid response Recognition of traits shared by broad ranges of pathogens, using a small set of receptors Recognition of traits specific to particular pathogens, using a vast array of receptors Slower response Barrier defenses: Skin Mucous membranes Secretions Internal defenses: Phagocytic cells Natural killer cells Antimicrobial proteins Inflammatory response Humoral response: Antibodies defend against infection in body fluids. Cell-mediated response: Cytotoxic cells defend against infection in body cells. ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY (vertebrates only) Figure 43.2

AP Biology Development of the key players, Red & White blood cells short-lived phagocytes 60-70% WBC develop into macrophages inflammatory response fight parasites Red blood cells Lymphocytes Leukocytes

AP Biology Thymus Peyer’s patches (small intestine) Appendix (cecum) Adenoid Tonsils Lymphatic vessels Spleen Lymph nodes Lymph node Blood capillary Interstitial fluid Tissue cells Lymphatic vessel Masses of defensive cells Figure 43.7
10
AP Biology 1st line: Non-specific External defense Barrier skin Traps mucous membranes, cilia, hair, earwax Elimination coughing, sneezing, urination, diarrhea Unfavorable pH stomach acid, sweat, saliva, urine Lysozyme enzyme digests bacterial cell walls tears, sweat Lining of trachea: ciliated cells & mucus secreting cells
11
AP Biology 2nd line: Non-specific patrolling cells Patrolling cells & proteins attack pathogens, but don’t “remember” for next time leukocytes phagocytic white blood cells macrophages, neutrophils, natural killer cells complement system Free-floating proteins that destroy cells inflammatory response increase in body temp. increase capillary permeability attract macrophages yeast macrophage bacteria
12
AP Biology Leukocytes: Phagocytic WBCs Attracted by chemical signals released by damaged cells Neutrophils most abundant WBC (~70%) ~ 3 day lifespan phagocyte Macrophages “big eater” phagocyte long-lived Natural Killer Cells destroy virus-infected cells & cancer cells
13
AP Biology Natural Killer Cells perforate cells release perforin protein insert into membrane of target cell forms pore allowing fluid to flow in & out of cell cell ruptures (lysis) apoptosis Destroying cells gone bad! perforin punctures cell membrane cell membrane natural killer cell cell membrane virus-infected cell vesicle perforin
14
AP Biology Anti-microbial proteins Complement system ~20 proteins circulating in blood plasma attack bacterial & fungal cells form a membrane attack complex perforate target cell apoptosis cell lysis plasma membrane of invading microbe complement proteins form cellular lesion extracellular fluid complement proteins bacterial cell
15
AP Biology Inflammatory response Damage to tissue triggers local non-specific inflammatory response release chemical signals histamines & prostaglandins capillaries dilate, become more permeable (leaky) delivers macrophages, RBCs, platelets, clotting factors fight pathogens clot formation increases temperature decrease bacterial growth stimulates phagocytosis speeds up repair of tissues

19
AP Biology Fever When a local response is not enough system-wide response to infection activated macrophages release interleukin-1 triggers hypothalamus in brain to readjust body thermostat to raise body temperature higher temperature helps defense inhibits bacterial growth stimulates phagocytosis speeds up repair of tissues causes liver & spleen to store iron, reducing blood iron levels bacteria need large amounts of iron to grow
20
AP Biology Specific defense with memory lymphocytes B cells antibodies (a.k.a. immunoglobulins) T cells Responds to… antigens cellular name tags specific pathogens specific toxins abnormal body cells (cancer) 3rd line: Acquired (active) Immunity B cell
21
AP Biology “self”“foreign” How are invaders recognized? Antigens cellular name tag proteins “self” antigens no response from WBCs “foreign” antigens response from WBCs pathogens: viruses, bacteria, protozoa, parasitic worms, fungi, toxins non-pathogens: cancer cells, transplanted tissue, pollen
22
AP Biology Lymphocytes B cells mature in bone marrow humoral response system “humors” = body fluids attack pathogens still circulating in blood & lymph produce antibodies T cells mature in thymus cellular response system attack invaded cells “Maturation” learn to distinguish “self” from “non-self” antigens if react to “self” antigens, cells are destroyed during maturation bone marrow
23
AP Biology Humoral (antibody-mediated) immune response Cell-mediated immune response Antigen (1st exposure) Engulfed by Antigen- presenting cell Helper T cell Memory helper T cells Antigen (2nd exposure) B cell Plasma cells Secreted antibodies Defend against extracellular pathogens Memory B cells Memory cytotoxic T cells Active cytotoxic T cells Defend against intracellular pathogens and cancer Cytotoxic T cell Key Stimulates Gives rise to Figure 43.20
24
AP Biology B cells Attack, learn & remember pathogens circulating in blood & lymph Produce specific antibodies against specific antigen Types of B cells plasma cells immediate production of antibodies rapid response, short term release memory cells continued circulation in body long term immunity

31
AP Biology Vaccinations Immune system exposed to harmless version of pathogen stimulates B cell system to produce antibodies to pathogen “active immunity” rapid response on future exposure creates immunity without getting disease! Most successful against viruses
32
AP Biology Jonas Salk Developed first vaccine against polio attacks motor neurons 1914 – 1995 April 12, 1955 Albert Sabin 1962 oral vaccine
33
AP Biology Obtaining antibodies from another individual maternal immunity antibodies pass from mother to baby across placenta or in mother’s milk critical role of breastfeeding in infant health mother is creating antibodies against pathogens baby is being exposed to Injection injection of antibodies short-term immunity Passive immunity
34
AP Biology 2007-2008 What if the attacker gets past the B cells in the blood & actually infects (hides in) some of your cells? You need trained assassins to recognize & kill off these infected cells! T Attack of the Killer T cells! But how do T cells know someone is hiding in there?
35
AP Biology How is any cell tagged with antigens? Major histocompatibility (MHC) proteins proteins which constantly carry bits of cellular material from the cytosol to the cell surface “snapshot” of what is going on inside cell give the surface of cells a unique label or “fingerprint” T or B cell MHC protein MHC proteins displaying self-antigens Who goes there? self or foreign?
36
AP Biology T cell antigen receptor T cell Cytoplasm of T cell Plasma membrane chain chain Disulfide bridge Antigen- binding site Variable regions Constant regions Transmembrane region V V C C Figure 43.11
37
AP Biology How do T cells know a cell is infected? Infected cells digest some pathogens MHC proteins carry pieces to cell surface foreign antigens now on cell membrane called Antigen Presenting Cell (APC) macrophages can also serve as APC tested by Helper T cells MHC proteins displaying foreign antigens infected cell T cell with antigen receptors T H cell WANTED
38
AP Biology T cells Attack, learn & remember pathogens hiding in infected cells recognize antigen fragments also defend against “non-self” body cells cancer & transplant cells Types of T cells helper T cells alerts rest of immune system killer (cytotoxic) T cells attack infected body cells memory T cells long term immunity T cell attacking cancer cell
