Innate (nonspecific) system responds quickly and consists of:First line of defense – intact skin and mucosae prevent entry of microorganismsSecond line of defense – antimicrobial proteins, phagocytes, and other cells Inhibit spread of invaders throughout the bodyInflammation is its hallmark and most important mechanism
Adaptive (specific) defense systemThird line of defense – mounts attack against particular foreign substancesTakes longer to react than the innate systemWorks in conjunction with the innate system
Non-Specific Immune Response, Innate immunity, inherent immunity, Role in overall immunity of individual, Significance, components involve in Non-Specific Immune Response,

Endocrine Disruption of the Neuro-immune InterfaceDES Daughter
by the Collaborative on Health and the Environment
Building on the January 8, 2014 teleconference featuring Dr. Rodney Dietert on how the developing immune system is a target for endocrine disrupting chemicals, Dr. Jamie DeWitt discussed how certain cells of the immune system may mediate endocrine signals to direct aspects of brain development. She also described scenarios where endocrine disrupting chemicals can alter brain development by changing signals to the immune cells that can mediate development of sex specificity in the brain.

The Role of Histamine in Radiation’ Toxic Effects .Dmitri Popov
Histamine is an organic nitrogenous compound involved in local immune responses as well as regulating physiological function in the gut and acting as a neurotransmitter. Histamine is involved in the inflammatory response.

Overview of the Immune System: Innate vs. Adaptive Defenses
Innate-Nonspecific Defenses
First Line of defense: Physical barriers
Second Line of defense:
- Major cellular components
Phagocytes
Basophils
Eosinophils
NK cells
- Chemical signals
Interferons
Complement Proteins
Inflammation
Fever (pyrogens)
Immunology and serology is an important issue for medical science both veterinary and human medical science .The presentation shows general study about immunology and serology
18. Phagocytosis “ It is the toll-like receptors on macrophages that enable them to sense that the material is microbial in origin, and must therefore be eliminated quickly.” Chemotaxis = movement toward infections.
34. Complement 1. Inactive complement proteins are in constant circulation. 2. Complement proteins are activated by various mechanisms. 3. These are the consequences...
