Terms in this set (121)
, complex body defines system- protects body against
immune system
bacteria, viruses, toxins and parasites
-present at birth
-not antigen specific
innate system -present at all times
-does not improve with
repeated exposure to infectious agent
-develops throughout life
-antigen specific
adaptive immune system -lag time between infection and response
-memory develops- provides lifelong immunity to
reinfection
defend the life of the individual - by identifying
immune response foreign substances in body and developing defence
against them
The way that an individual's body responds to an
host response
infection
-act like independent single-cell organisms
-can move through tissues and capture micro-
leukocytes organisms on their own
-2 types important in perio disease: PMNs,
Moncytes/macrophages
process by which leukocytes engulf and digest
phagocytosis
microorganisms
(PMNs)
-neutrophils
polymorphonuclear
- rapid responders- 1st line of defence
leukocytes
- capture/ destroy bacterial invaders
-short-lived
what attracts leukocytes to PMNs are attracted to bacteria by chemotaxis
an infection site
, strong bactericidal and digestive enzymes in PMN
lysosomes
-perio pathogens are effectively destroyed by PMNs
monocytes:in the bloodstream
macrophages: in the tissues
monocytes/macrophages -slower to arrive at infection site than PMNs
-surround/destroy bacteria
-long-lived cells in chronic inflammation
small leukocytes- help defend body
lymphocytes
2 types: B cells, t cells
B Cells
makes antibodies and pour into bloodstream
B lymphocytes
2 types: plasma/ memory b cells
y shaped proteins
y binds w outside of b celll
antibodies
-other end of y binds to a MO and kills it
antibodies are known collectively as immunoglobulins
T cells
intensify the response of other immune cells to
bacterial invasion
T lymphocytes
-produce CYTOKINES- further stimulate immune
response
protein secreted by cells and affects behaviour of
cytokine nearby cells
regulate behaviour of immune cells
series of protons circulating in blood:
-facilitate phagocytosis of bacteria
complement system
-kill bacteria directly - form pores in bacterial cell
membrane
