Document Summary

Any response of the immune system to get rid of ags (pathogens) Immediately available and does not get better with exposure. Mostly mediated by leukocytes other than lymphocytes: phagocytes (i. e. macrophages), nk cells. Improves with exposure = faster & stronger . Leading to immunological memory = long-lasting protection. Na ve: immune cell that has never seen ag. Response: response that develops the first time the system encounter an ag. Response: response that develops upon re-exposure to an ag (stronger and faster) Note: flu always lasts 7-10 days because the adaptive response takes 7-10 days to develop in a primary response and each season is a new flu. Deliberate induction of an adaptive immune response. Passive: with cells and/or molecules that mediate immunity. Induced: administration of antiserum i. e. tetanus shot. Steps in an immune response: tissue injury, inflammation, recognition of pathogen (source of ags) by receptors on/in immune cells:
