Summary

This document discusses the immune system, covering innate and adaptive immunity. It explores the first, second, and third lines of defense, including various immune cells and proteins. The document also describes the inflammatory response.

> Oromosen - Ch 21B – The Immune System Immune System Motto: If you aren’t with us, you’re against us! A functional system as opposed to an organ system Two arms that work together to monitor and protect – Innate or non-specific First and second lines of defense – Adaptive or specific Third line – immune system proper – Humoral immunity – Cellular immunity FIRST LINE SECOND LINE THIRD LINE Innate Defense – Intact Skin Intact epidermis is a highly effective physical barrier – What type of tissue is the epidermis??? Acid mantle – secretions (sweat & sebum) are acidic; secrete bactericidal chemicals Keratin – resistant to most weak acids & bases, bacterial enzymes & toxins Innate Defense – Intact Mucous Membranes Intact mucous membranes are a highly effective physical barrier – What type of tissue are the mucous membranes??? Mucus – sticky Nasal hairs – filter and trap Cilia – Move mucus out of the body Gastric juice – pH of 1-2; proteolytic enzymes Acid mantle of vagina – inhibits bacterial & fungal growth Tears & saliva – lubricate and cleanse; contain lysozyme Urine – mildly acidic, periodic cleansing Innate Defense – Neutrophil Photos © McGraw-Hill Education Neutrophil Nucleus of neutrophil Erythrocytes ©McGraw-Hill Education.

Inflammatory Response Starts with a chemical alarm (chemokines) released by injured or stressed tissues and immune cells Inflammatory Response Vasodilation followed by increased vascular permeability – Hyperemia – more blood to the area – Exudate seeps into the tissue Clotting factors, proteins (including antibodies), immune cells Clotting factors create a fibrin mesh that walls off the area and provides a scaffold for repair – Phagocytes flood the area Neutrophils and then macrophages Phagocyte Mobilization
