Obsah:
  • Introduction to the immune system : nomenclature, general properties, and components
  • Innate immunity : the early defense against infections
  • Antigen capture and presentation to lymphocytes : what lymphocytes see
  • Antigen recognition in the adaptive immune system : structure of lymphocyte antigen receptors and development of immune repertoires
  • T cell-mediated immunity : activation of t lymphocytes by cell-associated antigens
  • Effector mechanisms of t cell-mediated immunity : functions of t cells in host defense
  • Humoral immune responses : activation of b lymphocytes and production of antibodies
  • Effector mechanisms of humoral immunity : elimination of extracellular microbes and toxins
  • Immunological tolerance and autoimmunity : self-nonself discrimination in the immune system and its failure
  • Immune responses against tumors and transplants : immunity to noninfectious transformed and foreign cells
  • Hypersensitivity : disorders caused by immune responses
  • Congenital and acquired immunodeficiencies : diseases caused by defective immunity.
