IMPORTANCE OF IMMUNE SYSTEM
Role of the Immune System
• Defence against infections
• Recognises and responds to tissue grafts and newly introduced proteins
• Defence against tumors
Implications
• Deficient immunity results in increased susceptibility to infections. Vaccination boosts immune defences and protects against infections
• Immune responses are barriers to transplantation and gene therapy
• Potential for immunotherapy for cancer

Also called Natural or Native immunity.
Components present before the onset of infection.
Disease resistant mechanisms that are not specific to a particular pathogen
Pathogens must first breach barriers that protect host
INNATE IMMUNITY
![Page 10: Basics of Immunity](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55ce5ad5bb61ebe20a8b459d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Provides the first line defence right after exposure.
Most micro-organisms are readily cleared within a few days by innate immune system before adaptive immune system is activated

Components of innate immunity recognize structures that are shared by various classes of microbes and are not present on the host cells
For eg: Phagocytes express receptors for1. Bacterial LPS (endotoxin)- On cell wall of
many bacterial species2. Terminal mannose residues- Typical of
bacterial gylcoproteins3. Ds RNA- Found in viruses4. Unmethylated CpG oligonucleotide- Common
in microbial DNA

Recognizes structures of microbes that are often essential for the survival and infectivity of these microbes.
Recognize molecules that are released from stressed or necrotic cells. (Damage associated molecular patterns)

coat microbes for phagocytosis or activate the complement cascade by lectin pathway.
Belongs to collectin family of proteins which shares homology to collagen and contain a carbohydrate binding (lectin) domain.

Antigen receptors of B lymphocytes (Membrane bound antibodies) can recognize a wide variety of macromolecules (proteins, polysaccharides, lipids and nucleic acids) as well as small chemicals in soluble or cell surface associated form.
Most T lymphocytes can see only peptide fragments of protein antigens, and can do so only when these peptides are presented by specialized peptide display molecules on host cells

T cells can be distinguished by their different antigen receptors
The definitive T cell linage marker is the T cell antigen receptor (TCR).
2 different types of TCR are:A heterodimer of two disulfide- linked
polypeptides (α and β)A structurally similar heterodimer consisting of
γ and δ polypeptides
90-95% of blood T cells are αβ T cells
T- cells
![Page 50: Basics of Immunity](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55ce5ad5bb61ebe20a8b459d/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
There are 3 major subpopulations of αβ T cells
Helper T cells (TH) that expresses the CD4 marker (CD4+ T cells) and mainly ‘helps’ or ‘induces’ immune responsesTH1 cells secrete IL2 and IFN γTH2 cells produce IL4. IL5, IL6 and IL10
Regulatory T cells (Treg) that expresses the CD4+ T cells and regulate immune responses.
Cytotoxic T cells (TC) that express the CD8+ T cells- also called as cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs)
![Page 51: Basics of Immunity](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55ce5ad5bb61ebe20a8b459d/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Initiation of T cell responses requires multiple receptors on the T cells recognizing ligands on the APCs:The TCR recognizes MHC associated peptide
antigens, CD4 and CD8 c0-receptors recognize the MHC molecules strengthen the binding of T cells to APCs, and receptors for co-stimulators recognize second signals provided by the APCs
The molecules other than antigen receptors that are involved in T cell responses to antigens sometimes are called Accessory molecules of T lymphocytes
Antigen recognition and Co-stimulation

Humoral immunity is mediated by antibodies and is the arm of adaptive immune response that functions to neutralize and eliminate extracellular microbes and microbial toxins
More important in defending against microbes with capsules rich in polysaccharides and lipids and against polysaccharide and lipid toxins

IgD is found in low levels in serum
IgD is primarily found on B cell surfaces
IgD on the surface of B cells has extra amino acids at C-terminal end for anchoring to the membrane. It also associates with the Ig-alpha and Ig-beta chains.
IgD does not bind complement

IgE is the least common serum
Involved in allergic reactions - various pharmacological mediators that result in allergic symptoms.
IgE also plays a role in parasitic helminth diseases. Eosinophils have Fc receptors for IgE and binding of eosinophils to IgE-coated helminths results in killing of the parasite.
IgE does not fix complement.
