The Immune System is the Third Line of Defense Against Infection

Specific Immunity Basics…• Specific Immunity- the body’s way of
attacking a specific type of pathogen– Mechanisms involved do not attack everything
that’s bad– These mechanisms are considered your
body’s 3rd line of defense• Specific Immunity cells in your body use
the “lock & key” method of identification- distinguish “self” from “not self (pathogen)”

Must meet or be primed by specific pathogen before it can protect the body

Specific ImmunityNaturally Acquired
A. Active-– Body generates an immune response to antigens.– Immunity may be lifelong (chickenpox or mumps) or
temporary (influenza or intestinal infections).B. Passive-Antibodies pass from mother to fetus via placenta or
breast feeding (colostrum).– No immune response to antigens, short lived
![Page 6: Specific Immunity: the body’s 3 rd line of defense](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649ce55503460f949b26a1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Specific ImmunityArtificially Acquired A. Active– Antigens are introduced in vaccines (immunization). – Body generates an immune response to antigens.Immunity can be lifelong (oral polio vaccine) or
temporary (tetanus toxoid)B. Passive Immunity: – Preformed antibodies (antiserum) are introduced into
body by injection. • Snake antivenom injection from horses or rabbits.
– Immunity is short lived (half life three weeks).– Host immune system does not respond to antigens.

Specific Immunity Basics…• - Antigens and Ligands are like “flags”• Almost all of your body cells have Ligands,
protein markers attached to their plasma membrane• these are “self” marker proteins
• Foreign pathogens have Antigens on their surface• -these are “not self” marker proteins
– Auto Immune Diseases

Specific Immunity Basics Continued…
• Important cells involved include:• Macrophages• T-Lymphocytes (T-Cells)
– Helper T-cells– Cytotoxic T-cells– Memory T-cells
B –Lymphocytes (B-Cells)
-Plasma B-cells
-Memory B-cells

Specific Immunity Basics…
• Resistance=Immunity– Happens AFTER the first exposure to
pathogen
– Memory cells will launch a faster, more massive, attack
– Quicker Response because-Memory cells “remember” pathogen from before and attack it immediately
– Reason for vaccinations

Antibody Response After Exposure to Antigen

Specific Immunity: B cells (3rd line of defense
continued)
![Page 13: Specific Immunity: the body’s 3 rd line of defense](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649ce55503460f949b26a1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Antibodies are Produced by B Lymphocytes
![Page 14: Specific Immunity: the body’s 3 rd line of defense](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649ce55503460f949b26a1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How do B cells respond to foreign Invaders?
• Humoral immunity response AKA:• Antibody-Mediated Response-• “humors”- fluid of blood or lymph• B cells mature in red bone marrow• extracellular, bind to bacteria, toxins, free
viruses before they enter cells• useless against viruses, TB, other
invaders that slip into cells• B cells create plasma cells which release
antibodies

Clonal Selection of B Cells is Caused by Antigenic Stimulation
![Page 16: Specific Immunity: the body’s 3 rd line of defense](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649ce55503460f949b26a1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
How do B cells respond to foreign Invaders?
• Steps of B cell response1. Pathogen (foreign antigen) enters tissue.
2. macrophage engulfs foreign pathogen and displays antigen
3. Helper T cell joins with antigen through “lock and key” and releases cytokines
![Page 17: Specific Immunity: the body’s 3 rd line of defense](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649ce55503460f949b26a1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
4. B cell becomes activated (turn on robot and program it to kill one thing/pathogen) because of chemical signals
5. B cell proliferates. (clone robots to kill a bunch of the same thing/pathogen)
6. B cells differentiate into plasma cells and memory cells. (split your army)
![Page 18: Specific Immunity: the body’s 3 rd line of defense](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649ce55503460f949b26a1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
7. Plasma cells secrete antibodies to attack the pathogen and stop the reproduction (why we call it antibody mediated response)
8. Memory cells will circulate through the body ready for a 2nd attack (why is this advantageous?)

How do T cells respond to foreign invaders?
• Cellular-Immune Response AKA:• Cell-mediated Immunity
- Cell to cell contact, lymphocyte response–Genes are receptors, NOT antibodies–T- cells mature in Thymus–More diverse and complex–Virus infected, bacteria infected, cancer
cells, and cells of foreign grafts are destroyed, inside of cells

Cell Mediated Immunity is Carried Out by T Lymphocytes

How do T cells respond to foreign invaders?
• Steps for T cell response:1. Pathogen (foreign antigen) enters
tissue2. Macrophage phagocytizes pathogen3.Macrophage displays foreign antigen on cell surface.

(reference your diagram)Steps…
4. Helper T cell joins with antigen through lock and key (puzzle pieces fit)5. Helper T cell secretes cytokines (sprinkles)

(reference your diagram)Steps…
6. T cell becomes activated- enzymes activate lymphocyte response
7. T cells proliferate- make more of themselves
8. T cells differentiate into cytotoxic T cells and memory T cells

Steps…
9. Cytotoxic T cells bind with pathogen and release substances that destroy pathogen.

10. Memory cells will circulate through the body ready for a 2nd attack/exposure
