Lymphatic/Immune system Andrew Gasaway P2
Location of Lymphatic organs and their functions
Thymus
Make mature t cells
Apendix
destroys bacteria before it infiltrates intestine wall
Spleen
Makes Whit blood cells
Filters blood
Peyer's patches
prevents pathogen growth of bacteria
Red Bone Marrow
Maintain population of lymphocytes
Filter pathogens
Tonsils
Help fight infection
Lymph nodes
Filter whatever lymphatic fluid comes in
Humoral response and cellular response
Humoral
Antibodies travel through the body fluids to attack and destroy antigens
Cellular
response
through cell-to-cell contact
Innate(natural) immune defenses and Adaptive(acquired) immune defenses
Innate
Inflammation
Site of pathogen contained
fever
Create hostile environment for pathogen
Chemical barrier
tears
Gastric acid
Mechanical barrier
mucous membrane
skin
Aquired
Specific
slow
Natuarl active
Natural passive
Purpose and examples of First, Second and Third line of defense
Second
very broad and general
innate
Third
Adaptive
A specific and targeted response against a certain pathogen, but the process is slow
First
Mucous membranes
skin
Major functions of the Lymphatic & Immune systems
Immune
fights against pathogens when they enter the body
develops long term immunity
Attacks pathogen
Lymphatic
carry away excess tissue fluid
defend body against disease
works as a second circulatory system
Artificial vs. Naturally acquired immunity
Artificial
Gained from an injection, for example vaccines
Natural
Acquired through natural means such as exposure to pathogen or antibodies from mother
Cells involved in the immune system and their functions
B cell
Memory B cell
Remebers pathogen
Plasma cell
Create antibody
Virgin B cell
B cell before it becomes something in bone marrow
T cell
Memory T cell
Remember Pathogen
Helper T cell
Activate and coordinate other cellls
Killer T cell
Literally mirks the pathogen
Passive vs. Active immunity
Passive(short term)
Artificial passive
Injection of antiserum or gamma globulins
Natural passive
Antibodies from mother to fetus
Active(long term)
Artificial active
immunity gained from vaccines
Natural active
Exposure to pathogen
Antigens and antibodies
Antigen
Spike protein
Antibody
Mirk the pathogens
Disorders associated with the Immune system
Type 1 diabetes
Betal cells of the pancreas, which produce insulin, are destroyed by autoantibodies
allergies
Hypersensestive reaction, overaction of the immune system to normally harmless antigens
