    Study Notes

    Innate Immunity

    • Innate immunity is fast and non-specific.
    • The role of innate immunity in stimulating adaptive immunity is to activate and coordinate the response of adaptive immune cells.
    • Components of innate immunity include: • Physical barriers (skin, mucous membranes) • Cellular components (phagocytes, granulocytes, dendritic cells) • Humoral components (complement system, cytokines, interferon)
    • Attributes of innate immunity include: • Non-specific recognition • Immediate response • Lacks immunological memory
    • The function of innate immunity is to provide immediate defense against infection and trigger an adaptive immune response.

    Adaptive Immunity

    • Adaptive immunity is acquired and specific.

    Components of Innate Immunity

    • The component of innate immunity that involves the use of cytokines and interferon is the humoral component.

    Role of Phagocytes and Granulocytes

    • Phagocytes and granulocytes recognize and engulf foreign particles and microorganisms, playing a key role in eliminating pathogens from the body.

    Programmed Enzymes and Undead

    • Programmed enzymes and undead refer to apoptosis (programmed cell death) and necrosis (unprogrammed cell death), which help eliminate infected cells and prevent the spread of infection.
