Lesson 2 Preventing Communicable Diseases How might behaviors such as wearing appropriate safety equipment help protect you from pathogens? Lesson 2 Lesson Objectives In this lesson, you will learn to: • Examine the ways the body protects itself against invading pathogens • Develop strategies for caring for your immune system and preventing disease • Analyze the ways in which technology has impacted the world in the prevention of communicable diseases • Identify health-related community services related to disease prevention Lesson 2 Physical and Chemical Barriers The Body’s Defense System • Every day your body is exposed to millions of pathogens. • Your body manages to stay free of infection because of your immune system. • Physical and chemical barriers protect against a wide variety of invaders. Lesson 2 The Immune System Physical and Chemical Barriers—The Body’s First Line of Defense • Few pathogens can pass through the tough layer of dead skin cells that surrounds the body. • Tears and saliva contain enzymes that destroy or disable many pathogens. • Mucus secreted by mucous membranes carries trapped pathogens to other areas of the body for disposal. • Cilia sweep mucus and pathogens to the throat, where they can be swallowed or coughed out. • Gastric juice in the stomach destroys many pathogens that enter the body through the nose and mouth. Lesson 2 The Immune System Defense Strategies of the Immune System The immune system has two major defense strategies. 1. The inflammatory response is general, or nonspecific; it works against all types of pathogens. 2. Specific defenses work against particular pathogens. Lesson 2 The Immune System The Inflammatory Response • The purpose of an inflammatory response is to prevent further tissue injury and to halt invading pathogens. • In response to invasion by microorganisms and to tissue damage, blood vessels near the site of an injury expand to allow more blood flow to the area. • As blood vessels expand, fluid and cells from the bloodstream leak into the area. • The collection of fluid and white blood cells causes swelling and pain because of pressure on nerve endings. Lesson 2 The Immune System The Inflammatory Response and Specific Defenses • One type of cell that responds to injury is called a phagocyte. Phagocytes engulf pathogens and then destroy them with chemicals. • Pus, a collection of dead white blood cells and damaged tissue, may collect at the site of inflammation as a response to bacteria. • After the pathogens are killed and tissue damage is under control, tissue repair can begin. • However, regardless of whether pathogens survive the inflammatory response, specific defenses are activated. This activation is an effort to prevent this same infection from occurring again. Lesson 2 Specific Defenses Reaction of Specific Defenses to Invasion • Specific defenses react to invasion as a result of the body’s ability to recognize certain pathogens and destroy them. • During the immune response, certain types of white blood cells react to antigens. • Antigens are found on the surfaces of pathogens and in toxins. • Macrophages are a type of phagocyte that destroys pathogens by making antigens recognizable to white blood cells. • The result of the immune response is immunity. Lesson 2 The Immune Response Specific Defenses Lesson 2 Specific Defenses Lymphocytes • There are two types of lymphocytes, T cells and B cells. • Helper T cells trigger the production of B cells and killer T cells. • Killer T cells attack and destroy infected body cells. • Suppressor T cells coordinate the activities of other T cells. They “turn off” or suppress helper T cells when the infection has been cleared. • Lymphocytes called B cells produce antibodies. • Each B cell is programmed to make one type of antibody, specific to a particular pathogen. Lesson 2 The Role of Memory Lymphocytes Memory Cells • Some T cells and B cells that have been activated by antigens become memory cells. • When memory cells recognize a former invader, the immune system uses antibodies and killer T cells in a quick defense to stop it. • If it enters your body again, antibodies will attack the virus immediately, protecting you from becoming ill.

Lesson 2 The Role of Memory Lymphocytes Active and Passive Immunity Active Immunity Passive Immunity The immunity your body develops to protect you from measles and from other diseases is called active immunity. Naturally acquired active immunity develops when your body is exposed to antigens from invading pathogens. Artificially acquired active immunity develops in response to a vaccine. Lesson 2 Care of the Immune System Strengthening Your Immune System • Follow a sensible eating plan to maintain your overall health and to keep your immune system strong. • Get plenty of rest. • Get about an hour of physical activity each day. • Avoid sharing personal items such as towels, toothbrushes, hairbrushes, and makeup. • Avoid tobacco, alcohol, and other drugs. • Avoid sexual contact. • Keep your immunizations up to date. Lesson 2 Vaccines to Aid the Body’s Defenses Four Types of Vaccines 1. Live-virus vaccines are made to lose most of their disease-causing properties while stimulating the production of antibodies. 2. Killed-virus vaccines use inactivated pathogens. The organism stimulates an immune response and antibodies are produced. 3. Toxoids are inactivated toxins from pathogens. They can be used against pathogens that are not harmful themselves but produce toxins that cause sickness. 4. New and second-generation vaccines are being developed by scientists using new technologies. Lesson 2 Vaccination • If you are vaccinated against a disease, you can’t spread that disease to others. • Some vaccines require more than one dose over time, or “booster shots.” • Your family physician and your local health department can advise you on the immunizations you need. Immunization for All Lesson Quick Review 2 Choose the appropriate option. Q. Which of the following is NOT a physical and chemical barrier that pathogens encounter when they try to enter the human body? 1. Skin 2. Tears and saliva 3. Mucous membranes 4.

Lesson 2 The Role of Memory Lymphocytes Active and Passive Immunity Active Immunity Passive Immunity Passive immunity is receiving antibodies from another person or an animal. Natural passive immunity occurs when antibodies pass from mother to child during pregnancy or while nursing. Artificial passive immunity results from the injection of antibodies produced by an animal or a human who is immune to the disease.
