Innate Immunity Adaptive Immunity Components of Innate and Adaptive Immunity skin, gut Villi, lung cilia,etc many protein and non-protein secretions phagocytes, NK cell eosinophils, K cells physical barriers soluble factors cells non e Immunoglobulins (antibody) T and B lymphocytes
11
Physical Barriers to Resistance
12
SiteComponentFunctions Effector mechanisms in Innate Immunity -1 Peristalsis, low pH bile salts, fatty acids columnar cells GI tract Skin squamous cells sweat desquamation flushing, fatty acids tracheal cilia Lung mucociliary elevator surfactants
13
SiteComponentFunctions Effector mechanisms in Innate Immunity -2 Nasopharynx and eye mucus, saliva, tearsflushing, lysozyme Phagocytes Blood and Lymphiod organs phagocytosis and intracellular killing K, NK & LAK cells direct and antibody dependent cytolysis
14
SiteComponentFunctions Effector mechanisms in Innate Immunity -3 Serum and other serous fluids lactoferrin, transferrin iron deprivation interferons, TNF- antiviral proteins phagocyte activation lysozyme peptidoglycan hydrolysis Fibronectin & complement opsonization, enhanced phagocytosis, inflammation
15
Phagocytes are the Most Important Cells Influenced by the work of Eli Metchnikoff, George Bernard Shaw wrote: “There is at bottom only one genuine treatment for all diseases,…to stimulate the phagocytes. Drugs are a delusion. …(when) the phagocytes are stimulated; they devour the disease…”
16
All phagocytes eat, digest and extrude
17
Phagocytes: Neutrophils phagocytosis, intracellular killing, inflammation and tissue damage characteristic nucleus, cytoplasm granules and CD66 membrane marker.
18
Phagocytes: Macrophages phagocytosis, intracellular and extra- cellular killing, tissue repair, antigen presentation for specific immune response characteristic nucleus and CD14 membrane marker.
19
Characteristics of Neutrophil Granules primary granules contain cationic proteins, lysozyme, defensins, proteases and myeloperoxidase secondary granules contain lysozyme, NADPH oxidase, lactoferrin and B12- binding protein azurophilic; characteristic of young neutrophils; specific for mature neutrophils

Phagocyte Response to Infection uThe SOS Signals –N-formyl methionine –Clotting system peptides –Complement products uPhagocyte response –Vascular adherence –Diapedesis –Chemotaxis –Activation –Phagocytosis and killing uThe SOS Signals –N-formyl methionine –Clotting system peptides –Complement products uPhagocyte response –Vascular adherence –Diapedesis –Chemotaxis –Activation –Phagocytosis and killing
