4. Timeline of Immunology
• 430 B.C. Thucydides People have been sicked free from illness
Song dynasty A divine doctor Emei Mountain Variolation
• 1798 Jenner Vaccination
• 1880 Pasteur Attenuated chicken cholera vaccine
• 1890 Behring/Kitasato Antitoxin ―Humoralimmunity hypothesis
• 1883 Metchnikoff Endocytosis - Cytoimmunity hypothesis
• 1905 Pirquet/Schick Horse serum sickness (Hypersensitivity)
• 1945 Owen/Burnet Immune tolerance hypothesis
• 1959 Burnet Clonal selection hypothesis
• 1965 Immune Interferone

5. What’s About Immunity
• IMMUNITY
• protection from disease (infectious disease)
• IMMUNE SYSTEM
• organ, cell, molecule and gene
• IMMUNE RESPNSE
• response to the foreign substances
6. Immune Response
• Self molecule
• Non self molecule
They are two types
Antibody
mediated
response
Cell mediated
response
15. Overcoming Phagocytosis
• Avoid provoking an overwhelming inflammatory response
• Inhibit phagocyte chemotaxis.
• Remain confined in regions inaccessible to phagocytes
• Inhibition of Phagocytic Engulfment
• Inhibition of fusion of the phagocytic lysosomes (granules) with the phagosome.
• Survival inside the phagolysosome.
• Killing Phagocytes Before Ingestion
• Killing Phagocytes After Ingestion
• Products of Bacteria that Kill or Damage Phagocytes
17. Natural Killer(NK) Cells
• a type of cytotoxic lymphocyte
• White blood cell
• large granular lymphocytes
• Kill by releasing small cytoplasmic granules of
protein
• Identified by CD16, CD56, KAR, KIR
18. Function of NK Cell
Control several types of tumors & microbial infections by subsequent tissue dam
NK cells kill host cells infected by intracellular microbes
eliminating reservoirs of infection.
NK cells secrete IFN𝜸 in response to IL-12 produced by macrophages
IFN𝜸 activates the macrophages to kill phagocytosed microbes
