AN INTRODUCTION
EIGHTH EDITION

Chapter 17, part A
Specific Defenses of the Host:
The Immune Response
Specific Defenses of the
Host:
The Immune Response
• Innate (nonspecific) Defenses against any
pathogen
• Immunity
Specific antibody and
lymphocyte
response to an
antigen
• Antigen (Ag)
A substances that causes the
body to produce specific
antibodies or sensitized
T cells
Terminology
• Serology
Study of reactions between
antibodies and antigens
• Antiserum
Generic term for serum
because
it contains Ab
• Globulins
Serum proteins
• Gamma () globulin Serum fraction containing Ab
Serum Proteins

The Immune Response - Two
arms
• Acquired immunity
during an
individual's lifetime
– Humoral immunity
produced by
– Cell-mediated immunity
Developed
Involves Ab

Involves T cells

Immunity
• Naturally acquired active immunity
– Resulting from infection
• Naturally acquired passive immunity
– Transplacental or via colostrum
• Artificially acquired active immunity
– Injection of Ag (vaccination)
• Antibodies
recognize
and react with antigenic
Antigenic
Determinants
determinants or epitopes.

Antibody Structure

IgG antibodies
• Monomer
• 80% of serum
antibodies
• Fix complement
• In blood, lymph,
intestine
• Cross placenta
• Enhance phagocytosis;
neutralize toxins &
Compare Ig classes
• Be able to compare classes
• See table in text
IgM antibodies
• Pentamer
• 5-10% of serum
antibodies
• Fix complement
• In blood, lymph, on
B cells
• Agglutinates
microbes; first Ab
produced in
response to
J
Chain
C4
IgA antibodies
Secretory
Piece
• Dimer
• 10-15% of serum
antibodies
• In secretions
• Mucosal protection
• Half-life = 6 days
J
Chain
IgD antibodies
• Monomer
• 0.2% of serum
antibodies
• In blood, lymph, on B
cells
• On B cells, initiate
immune response
• Half-life = 3 days
IgE antibodies
• Monomer
• 0.002% of serum
antibodies
• On mast cells and
basophils, in blood
• Allergic reactions;
lysis of parasitic
worms
• Half-life = 2 days
Clonal Selection
• Bone marrow gives rise to B cells.
• Mature B cells migrate to lymphoid
organs.
• A mature B cells recognizes epitopes.
Clonal Selection
Figure 17.8
Self-tolerance
• Body doesn't make Ab against self
• Clonal deletion
– The process of destroying B and T cells
that react to self antigens
