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.
