Study Notes

Immune Response

Adaptive immunity is characterized by the production of antibodies.

Inflammation

Chronic inflammation is associated with scar formation and loss of specialized function.

Cell Function

Cytotoxic T cells play a role in the specific (adaptive) immune response by recognizing and destroying infected cells.

Humoral Complement System

C3 is a component of the humoral complement system.
The main function of the humoral complement system is to help eliminate pathogens from the body.

Cell Involvement

Neutrophils are NOT directly involved in the humoral complement system.

Immune System

The second line of defense in the body's immune system is the adaptive immune response.

Innate Immune System

Interferons are NOT a component of the humoral response in the innate immune system.

Chronic Inflammation

During chronic inflammation, there is a prolonged and persistent inflammatory response that can lead to tissue damage and disease.
