ACQUIRED IMUNITY  Lymphoid tissue is distributed advantageously in the body to intercept invading organisms or toxins before they can  develops after the body is first attacked by a bacterium, spread too widely virus, or toxin, often requiring weeks or months to develop the immunity - Entry into blood allows invading organisms to widely spread in  immunity that is developed once a person is exposed to the body the invader (bacteria, virus, toxin) - Before the bacteria can enter lungs, they must be intercepted by tonsils and adenoids in the upper respiratory tract PREPARED AND EDITED BY: MACARAEG, E., MACNI, K., MAPALO, D., MENDOZA, C., NITURA, A., PASCUA, C., PAYUMO, M., PINERO, D. (007) IMMUNITY DR. MARSHA MICHELLE CABUENA | 03/11/2020 - Before the bacteria are absorbed into the blood, they must be - The thymus makes certain that any T lymphocyte leaving the intercepted by lymphocytes in submucosal areas and the thymus will not react against the proteins or other antigens present different chemicals secreted in GIT in the body tissue (to recognize self from non-self) - Prolonged intake of omeprazole decreases secretion of HCl in - The thymus selects which T lymphocytes should be released by the GIT and allows bacteria to gain more access for absorption first, mixing them with antigens in the body. If a T lymphocyte reacts into the blood with self antigen, it is destroyed or phagocytized, instead of being - Tonsillectomy decreases immunity and the ability to intercept released. The only cells that are finally released are those that are invading organisms nonreactive to the body’s own antigens.  Invading agent first enters the tissue fluids and then is carried Antigen by lymph vessels to the lymph node or other lymphoid tissue Preprocessing of the T and B Lymphocytes Macrophages phagocytize and partially digest the antigen Pass these antigens by cell-to-cell contact directly to the lymphocytes Activation of the specified lymphocytic clones  Secrete interleukin-1 (activating substance), promotes further growth and reproduction of the specific lymphocytes  Forms helper cells, secrete specific substances (collectively called lymphokines) that activate the specific B lymphocytes Activation of B lymphocytes (enlarge) -before lymphocytes are released to the lymphoid tissues, they will wait until they are exposed to antigen. They will be preprocessed Lymphoblast first by either thymus or the Bursa -both types of lymphocytes are derived originally from the hematopoietic stem cells in the embryo, forming the common Plasma blasts lymphoid progenitor cells (first offspring) that will later differentiate into T or B lymphocytes -preprocessing in the following ways: Mature plasma cell then produces gamma globulin antibodies 1.) Lymphoid progenitor cells migrate and are preprocessed in the thymus. Thus, they are called T lymphocytes to designate the role of thymus. They are responsible for cell-mediated Antibodies are secreted into the lymph and carried to the immunity circulating blood 2.) Hematopoietic stem cells are formed into common lymphoid progenitor cells which develop into B lymphocytes. B Memory Cells lymphocytes are preprocessed in the liver during mid-fetal life  B-cell population of the specifically activated clone or in the bone marrow during the late fetal life and even after becomes greatly enhanced, and the new B lymphocytes birth (this population of cells was discovered in birds that have are added to the original lymphocytes of the same clone special preprocessing organ called Bursa of Fabricius. Hence,  Circulate throughout the body to populate all the lymphoid the name ‘B lymphocyte’ to designate the role of Bursa, tissue responsible for humoral immunity)  Remain dormant until activated once again by a new - once they have been preprocessed, they will start to be released quantity of the same antigen to the lymphoid tissue. Almost all the types of lymphocytes  Subsequent exposure to the same antigen will cause a eventually end up in the lymphoid tissue. But, before doing so, they much more rapid and much more potent antibody are further differentiated or preprocessed either in the thymus or response this second time around Bursa  Explains why there is immunization -there is a need for preprocessing in the thymus or bursa to render the T and B lymphocytes nonreactive to cells, for them not to destroy the body’s own tissues. -One lymphocyte develops specific reactivity against one antigen. The next lymphocyte develops specificity against another antigen. The process continues, thousands of lymphocytes develop specific reactivity against thousands of different antigens. - The preprocessed T lymphocytes now leave the thymus and spread by way of the blood all throughout the body to lodge into lymphoid tissue, where they will end up.

Antibody infected before and indicates an ongoing infection at the same time. Structure of an Antibody Mechanism of Action of Antibodies 2 Actions: 1. Direct attack on the invader  Agglutination = multiple large particles with antigens on their surfaces, such as bacteria or red cells, are bound together into a clump  Precipitation = the molecular complex of soluble antigen (such as tetanus toxin) and antibody becomes so large that it is rendered insoluble and precipitates - Dehydrates the bacteria and renders it insoluble  Neutralization = cover the toxic sites of the antigenic agent  Lysis = directly attacking membranes of cellular agents and thereby causes rupture of the agent 2. Activation of the "complement system" that then has multiple means of its own for destroying the invader Nature of Antibodies  Gamma globulins called immunoglobulins  Constitute about 20 percent of all the plasma proteins  Composed of combinations of light and heavy polypeptide chains  Combination of two light and two heavy chains PREPARED AND EDITED BY: MACARAEG, E., MACNI, K., MAPALO, D., MENDOZA, C., NITURA, A., PASCUA, C., PAYUMO, M., PINERO, D.

MARSHA MICHELLE CABUENA | 03/11/2020 - Initial complex formation is needed for complement phagocytes to migrate into the tissue area adjacent to the activation to take place. antigenic agent. 6. Activation of mast cells and basophils:  Fragments C3a, C4a, and C5a activate mast cells and basophils, causing them to release histamine, heparin, and several other substances into the local fluids o increased local blood flow, increased leakage of fluid and plasma protein into the tissue, and other local tissue reactions that help inactivate or immobilize the antigenic agent 7. Inflammatory effects:  the already increased blood flow to increase still further  the capillary leakage of proteins to be increased  the interstitial fluid proteins to coagulate in the tissue spaces, thus preventing movement of the invading organism through the tissues  C3b5 – opsonization of bacteria  C3a, C4a, C5a: activate mast cells  symptoms of allergy  C5 activation chemotaxis of WBC  mechanism on how the antibodies carry out their function on attacking the invader is just the same with Direct and Indirect mechanism. Both will agglutinate, precipitate, neutralize, and lyse Complement the foreign invader.  Collective term that describes a system of about 20proteins, many of which are enzyme precursors  Principal actors in this system are 11 proteins designated C1through C9, B, and D E. T - Lymphocytes  The enzyme precursors are normally inactive, but they can be activated mainly by the so-called classic pathway  T lymphocytes respond to antigens only when they are bound to specific molecules called MHC proteins (major histocompatibility complex) on the surface of antigen- D. Classical Pathway presenting cells in the lymphoid tissue  MHC proteins, bind peptide fragments of antigen proteins  Initiated by Antigen-Antibody complex formation. which are degraded in APC and transported to the cell surface 1. Opsonization and phagocytosis:  C3b, strongly activates phagocytosis by both neutrophils and macrophages o engulf the bacteria to which the antigen-antibody complexes are attached (opsonization) and enhances the number of bacteria that can be destroyed by many hundredfold. 2. Lysis:  One of the most important of all the products of the complement cascade = lytic complex = C5b6789. This has a direct effect of rupturing the cell membranes of bacteria or other invading organisms. 3. Agglutination:  The complement products also change the surfaces of the invading organisms, causing them to adhere to one another, thus promoting agglutination 4. Neutralization of viruses:  The complement enzymes and other complement products can attack the structures of some viruses and thereby render them nonvirulent. 5. Chemotaxis:  Fragment C5a initiates chemotaxis of neutrophils and macrophages, thus causing large numbers of these PREPARED AND EDITED BY: MACARAEG, E., MACNI, K., MAPALO, D., MENDOZA, C., NITURA, A., PASCUA, C., PAYUMO, M., PINERO, D.

MARSHA MICHELLE CABUENA | 03/11/2020 Active vs Passive Immunity ACITVE  the person's own body develops either antibodies or activated T cells in response to invasion of the body by a foreign antigen PASSIVE  transfusion of antibodies or T lymphocytes to confer immunity  Antibodies last in the body of the recipient for two to three weeks, during that time the person is protected against invading disease.  ex. Rabies vaccine, we don’t wait for a delay since the response is primary during an initial infection and it will take a longer period of time for a person to generate antibody on its own (7-14 days), we inject Anti-Rabies Immunoglobulin right away instead which is readily available. 3.

(007) IMMUNITY DR. MARSHA MICHELLE CABUENA | 03/11/2020 A. Types of Allergic Reaction 2. URTICARIA -Results from antigen entering skin areas and causing 1. ANAPHYLAXIS- A widespread allergic reaction that occurs localized anaphylactoid reactions throughout the vascular system and closely associated tissues. a) Release of histamine Most deadly among the allergic reaction. A person who b) Vasodilation that induces an immediate red flare experience this reaction dies of circulatory shock within a few c) Increases local permeability of the capillaries minutes unless treated with epinephrine to oppose the effect of d) Local circumscribed areas of swelling of the skin histamine. A. a) Release of histamine into the circulation b) Widespread vasodilation and increased permeability of the capillaries c) Marked loss of plasma from the circulation  Decrease of blood pressure of the patient d) The patient can have Circulatory shock  very low blood pressure, tachycardia, the patient is also very pale which is because of the widespread marked of vasodilation. - If you have a patient with this symptoms and history of allergy or asthma or even slight allergy in the family history, and the patient on history for example has eaten peanut prior to the symptoms so - “Reverse skin” the peanut will be the cause of the allergen. It has activated the - Look like large mosquito bite that is scattered all reagin/allergen antibody that cause the release of histamine. You over the body, which is cause by the released of see that the patient is pale, with tachycardia, initially give the histamine, or allergen antibody or reagin. So patient anti-histamine and you must also give the patient remember that what is causing urticaria is epinephrine because the patient is already in a circulatory shock, Histamine. and there is the tendency that the patient may die in a few minutes because of circulatory shock. 3. HAY FEVER - called as sneezing syndrome; allergic rhinitis So even if your patient has a very mild symptoms admit them to (people who always have colds) prevent anaphylaxis (having very narrow airways or blocked airway cause by the release of leukotrienes and vasodilatation cause by a) Release of histamine the release of histamines). b) Local intranasal vascular dilation c) Increased permeability pressure and B. permeability a) Release of slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis (leukotrienes) - Caused by the leakage of fluid in the nasal cavities b) Leukotrienes will cause Spasm of the smooth muscle and associated with colds or they usually have of the bronchioles (asthma-like attack) phlegm in their throat or nasal drip, also with swelling c) Suffocation in their nasal linings (red nose). If their nasal linings are irritated, it can cause mucus and they also constantly sneeze. All of this is the cause of hay fever which is the result of release of histamine. - Use of anti-histamine can prevent the swelling reaction. However, other products of allergen-reagin reaction can still cause irritation of the nose, eliciting the typical sneezing syndrome. So as you can see the eyes of the child above, there is an edema with swollen tongue which is very dangerous. If it is swollen expect the bronchioles to be also swollen. There will be decrease in the caliber of your trachea or airway. The patient will report dyspnea or shortness of breath, cyanotic, and wheezing. It is more dangerous if you will not hear wheezing during auscultation 4. ASTHMA (allergen in the Bronchioles of lungs) because it means that there is no gas exchange happening in the - Often occurs in the allergic type of person airways, so anaphylaxis is a very dangerous allergic reaction. - If you have allergy you will develop asthma 95% or vice versa, that if you have asthma you will develop allergen.
