Chapter 42 Outline and Terms A. Immunity is ability of the body to defend against infectious agents, foreign cells, and abnormal cancer cells. 1. Immunity includes nonspecific and specific defenses. 2. Three nonspecific defenses include barrier to entry, the inflammatory reaction, and protective proteins.

Lymphocytes They are B lymphocytes (B cells) and T lymphocytes (T cells). B cells. B cells develop from bone marrow stem cells in adults. When B cells become activated due to the presence of a particular antigen, they create antibodies that are specific to that specific antigen.ntibodies are critical to humoral immunity as this type of immunity relies on the circulation of antibodies in bodily fluids and blood serum to identify and counteract antigens. T cells. T cells develop from liver or bone marrow stem cells that mature in the thymus.

Acquired Immune System (B Cells and T Cells) Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell. There are two types of lymphocytes of the acquired immune system: T cells and B cells. There is a third type of lymphocyte known as natural killer (NK) cells, but these are a part of the innate immune system. T cells account for about 80% of all lymphocytes.

Natural killer cell Natural killer cell. Not to be confused with Natural killer T cell. Natural killer cells or NK cells are a type of cytotoxic lymphocyte critical to the innate immune system. The role NK cells play is analogous to that of cytotoxic T cells in the vertebrate adaptive immune response. NK cells provide rapid responses to viral-infected cells, acting at around 3 days after infection, and respond to tumor formation.

Natural Killer Cells NK cells distinguish healthy cells from infected or cancerous ones through a balance between activating signals and inhibitory signals. Expression of class I molecules on normal cells thus prevents their destruction by NK cells.

Immune system The main response of the immune system to tumors is to destroy the abnormal cells using killer T cells, sometimes with the assistance of helper T cells. Tumor antigens are presented on MHC class I molecules in a similar way to viral antigens.This allows killer T cells to recognize the tumor cell as abnormal.isorders of the immune system can result in autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases and cancer. Immunodeficiency occurs when the immune system is less active than normal, resulting in recurring and life-threatening infections.

immunity After their production in the bone marrow, some lymphocytes (called T lymphocytes or T cells) travel to the thymus, where they differentiate and mature. Three classes of T lymphocytes have been identified: helper T cells, suppressor T cells, and cytotoxic T cells.

Adaptive Immunity The adaptive immune or specific immune response consists of antibody responses and cell-mediated responses, which are carried out by different lymphocyte cells, B cells and T cells, respectively.

Beginners Guide to T cells This mechanism allows killer T-cells to hunt down and destroy cells that are infected with germs or that have become cancerous. The other main type of T-cells are called helper T-cells. Helper T-cells orchestrate an immune response and play important roles in all arms of immunity.

Lymphocyte They include natural killer cells (NK cells) (which function in cell-mediated, cytotoxic innate immunity), T cells (for cell-mediated, cytotoxic adaptive immunity), and B cells (for humoral, antibody-driven adaptive immunity). They are the main type of cell found in lymph, which prompted the name lymphocyte.

- An immune response is generally divided into innate and adaptive immunity. Innate immunity occurs immediately, when circulating innate cells recognize a problem.Adaptive immunity occurs later, as it relies on the coordination and expansion of specific adaptive immune cells.n effective vaccine will optimally activate both the innate and adaptive response. An immunogen is used to activate the adaptive immune response so that specific memory cells are generated.

Natural killer T cell Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a heterogeneous group of T cells that share properties of both T cells and natural killer cells.Many of these cells recognize the non-polymorphic CD1d molecule, an antigen-presenting molecule that binds self and foreign lipids and glycolipids.atural killer T (NKT) cells are a heterogeneous group of T cells that share properties of both T cells and natural killer cells.

Lymphocyte T cells (Thymus cells) and B cells (bone cells). The function of T cells and B cells is to recognize specific non-self antigens, during a process known as antigen presenta … tion.Once they have identified an invader, the cells generate specific responses that are tailored to maximally eliminate specific pathogens or pathogen infected cells.n response to pathogens some T cells, called T helper cells, produce cytokines that direct the immune response while other T cells, called cytotoxic T cells, produce toxic granules that contain powerful enzymes which induce the death of pathogen infected cells.

What is Immunity? - Definition & Types Since T-cells require direct contact with other cells, T-cell immunity is termed cell-mediated immunity. Activated T-cells become helper cells (TH) and cytotoxic (killer) T-cells. They recognize and cause the destruction of infected cells.

Lymphocytes They are B lymphocytes (B cells) and T lymphocytes (T cells). B cells. B cells develop from bone marrow stem cells in adults. When B cells become activated due to the presence of a particular antigen, they create antibodies that are specific to that specific antigen.Antibodies are specialized proteins that travel thorough the bloodstream and are found in bodily fluids. cells develop from liver or bone marrow stem cells that mature in the thymus. These cells play a major role in cell mediated immunity. T cells contain proteins called T-cell receptors that populate the cell membrane. These receptors are capable of recognizing various types of antigens.

Antibodies 1 Most of the organs of the immune system are concerned with the growth, development, and deployment of lymphocytes. 2  These organs are called lymphoid organs. 3  Lymphocytes travel through the blood searching for foreign cells. 4  B cells use antibodies to target bacteria. 5  T cells actually do the fighting.

Lymphocyte NK cells are a part of the innate immune system and play a major role in defending the host from both tumors and virally infected cells. NK cells distinguish infected cells and tumors from normal and uninfected cells by recognizing changes of a surface molecule called MHC (major histocompatibility complex) class I.

Innate immune system The innate immune system is an evolutionarily older defense strategy, and is the dominant immune system found in plants, fungi, insects, and primitive multicellular organisms.atural killer cells, or NK cells, are a component of the innate immune system that does not directly attack invading microbes. Rather, NK cells destroy compromised host cells, such as tumor cells or virus-infected cells, recognizing such cells by a condition known as missing self..

- Specific immunity is also known as adaptive immunity or acquired immunity active or passive. There are two types of specific immune responses; humoral and cell mediated. Humor…al immunity is mediated by B Lymphocytes that produce antibodies; forms of B lymphocytes are IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE.

lymphocyte activation The CD4 cells called helper T cells help B lymphocytes recognize certain antigens. Amplifier T lymphocytes are CD8 cells that enhance the activity of cytotoxic T cells. Suppressor T cells are CD8 cells that suppress antibody synthesis by their action on helper cells and B lymphocytes.

Natural killer cell Natural killer cell. Natural killer cells (also known as NK cells, K cells, and killer cells) are a type of lymphocyte (a white blood cell) and a component of innate immune system. NK cells play a major role in the host-rejection of both tumours and virally infected cells. NK cells are cytotoxic; small granules in their cytoplasm contain special proteins such as perforin and proteases known as granzymes.
