Innate immunity components
- Neutrophils,
- macrophages,
- monocytes,
- dendritic cells,
- NK cells (lymphoid origin),
- complement
-
Innate immunity resistance
Germline encodedResistance persists through generations, doesnot change within an organism’s lifetime
-
Innate immunity response to pathogen
- Nonspecific
- Occurs rapidly (minutes to hours)
-
Innate immunity physical barrier
Epithelial tight junctions, mucus
-
Innate immunity secreted protein
Lysozyme, complement, CRP, defensins
-
Innate immunity KEY FEATURES IN PATHOGEN RECOGNITION
Toll-like receptors (TLRs): pattern recognitionreceptors that recognize pathogen-associatedmolecular patterns (PAMPs). Examples ofPAMPs include LPS (gram-negative bacteria),flagellin (bacteria), ssRNA (viruses)
-
Adaptive immunity components
T cells, B cells, circulating antibodies
-
Adaptive immunity RESISTANCE
- Variation through V(D)J recombination duringlymphocyte development
- Microbial resistance not heritable
-
Adaptive immunity RESPONSE TO PATHOGENS
Highly specific, refined over timeDevelops over long periods; memory response is faster and more robust
-
Adaptive immunity PHYSICAL BARRIER S
none
-
Adaptive immunity SECRETED PROTE INS
Immunoglobulins
-
Adaptive immunity KEY FEATURE S IN PATHOGEN RECOGN ITION
Memory cells: activated B and T cells;subsequent exposure to a previouslyencountered antigen stronger, quicker immune response
-
MHC I binding
TCR and CD8
-
MHC II binding
TCR and CD4
-

-
MHC I func
Present endogenously synthesized antigens(e.g., viral) to CD8+ cytotoxic T cells
-
MHC II func

-
MHC I ANTIGEN LOADING
Antigen peptides loaded onto MHC I in RER after delivery via TAP peptide transporter
-
MHC II ANTIGEN LOADING
Antigen loaded following release of invariant chain in an acidified endosome
-

β2-microglobulin
-
MHC II MODE OF TRANSPORT TO CELL SURFACE
unknown

-
POSITIVE (UPREGULATED )
Serum amyloid A
Prolonged elevation can lead to amyloidosis
-
POSITIVE (UPREGULATED )
C-reactive protein
Opsonin; fixes complement and facilitates phagocytosis.Measured clinically as a sign of ongoing inflammation.
-
POSITIVE (UPREGULATED )
Ferritin
Binds and sequesters iron to inhibit microbial iron scavenging
-
POSITIVE (UPREGULATED )
Fibrinogen
Coagulation factor; promotes endothelial repair; correlates with ESR.
-
POSITIVE (UPREGULATED )
Hepcidin
