Document Summary
Immune system eliminates pathogens innate cp lapd. Adaptive lymphocytes, antibodies, molecules produced by lymphocytes recognize/respond to specific molecules on pathogens. Anatomical and physiological barriers innate (non-specific immunity) White blood cells (wbcs or leukocytes) red blood cells (rbcs) Mononuclear leukocytes t lymphocytes, b lymphocytes, & monocytes. Monocytes leave blood tissues or organs = macrophages. ~65% of wbcs leukocytes = neutrophils = polymorphonuclear leukocyte (pmns) Hematopoietc stem cells (hemo = blood; poiesis = formation) All blood cells arise from bone marrow. Differentiate into any different types of blood cells. Cytokine - proteins made by cells that affect behavior of other cells. Produce basophils, eosinophils, macrophages, mast cells, monocytes, & neutrophils lymphoid precursor cells. Produce t lymphocytes (t cells), b lymphocytes (b cells) Dendritic cells & natural killer cells from hematopoietc stem cells in bone marrow. Many types of dendritic cells: from lymphoid precursor cell or myeloid precursor cell.
