The Immune System Second Edition Chapter 1 Elements of the Immune System and their Roles in Defense Copyright © 2005 by Garland Science Publishing Peter Parham
3
Chapter 1 Summarizes all of immunology Get a good Foundation Before class: Read the textbook in general and try to understand all the terminologies in bold. During class: Take good notes because I will be adding information that will be tested After class: Review material to commit to long-term memory
4
What components make up the immune system? Cells, organs, cytokines and molecules involved in the immune system What is the goal of the immune system? To clear pathogens and cancer cells in our body How do we classify immune responses? Innate and adaptive immune responses What are the side effects of the immune system? Autoimmune diseases, Allergies, Transplantation Rejection Lecture Concepts
5
Immunology: the science of how the body responds to foreign organisms (e.g. pathogens) or substances (e.g. allergen) Immune system: the organs, cells and molecules that defend and respond to pathogens/allergens 1. Tissues/organs 2. Cells 3. Blood borne proteins
6
Origin of Immunology - individuals who survived a disease seemed to be untouched upon re-exposure Vaccination/Immunization - procedure where disease is prevented by deliberate exposure to infectious agent that cannot cause disease.

Pathogen Recognition Signal Effector mechanisms Effector CellsComplement Innate immunity - “naïve” everyday immunity Acquired immunity - “specialized” immunity Immunity: Basic Parts (Binding event) (Foreign) (Self) Immune disorders

16
What if Innate Immunity is not Enough? Innate immunity keeps us healthy most of the time Some pathogens escape the innate immune process Need a specific system to adapt to a specific pathogen Adaptive immune response
17
Figure 1-7 Characteristics of Innate vs Adaptive Immunity Lymphocytes - white blood cells that increase the immune response to ongoing infection
18
Innate vs Adaptive Molecular Recognition Most important difference: Receptors used to recognize pathogens Innate immunity: Receptors recognize conserved structures present in many pathogens Pathogen-associated Molecular Patterns: LPS, peptidoglycan, lipids, mannose, bacterial DNA and viral RNA Adaptive immunity: Receptors recognize a specific structure unique to that pathogen

Adaptive Immunity 1.Vertebrates only 2.Specificity - recognition modules - BCR, Ab and TCR - gene rearrangement is the source of diversity - clonal selection 3.Small lymphocytes - types and sub-types - functions
43
Recognition concept Receptor or Antibody molecule Antigen - structure recognized by an Ab, BCR or TCR Epitope - particular sub-structure of the Ag that is bound Affinity - how much a molecule like to bind to a structure
44
B-cells BCR is Immunoglobulin (Ig) Plasma cells - effector cells that secrete Ab T-cells T c = cytotoxic (CD8+) T H = helper T-cells (CD4+) Th1 (inflammation) Th2 (help B-cells make AB) Small lymphocyte sub-types

Principles of Adaptive Immunity Diversity Specificity Memory Self-tolerance
52
Gene Rearrangement is the source of Diversity Germline configuration Diversity 1.Alternative combinations 2.Imprecise joints 3.Different types of chains 4.B-cells - somatic hypermutation In the absence of antigen
53
Clonal Selection 1.Each cell = one receptor 2.Millions of lymphocytes are generated 3.Small subset will recognize a pathogen 4.Proliferation and differentiation 5.Acquired immunity - the adaptive immunity provided by immunological memory
