Primary immune response Educational Learning Presentation with AnalogyRashika Sood
The first half ofthe presentation is by me providing an analogy to understand the Primary Immune Response better. I am a Microbiology student and this was a part of my curriculum, under Immunology. It is an educational learning presentation which will provide an interactive way for students to learn and a break from monotonous presentations.
Adjuvant is an immunological agent which enhances the body's immune response to an antigen.
Adjuvants may be added to a vaccine to boost the immune response to produce more antibodies and longer-lasting immunity, thus minimizing the dose of antigen needed to the vaccine.
Adjuvants are used in combination with a specific antigen that produced a more robust immune response than the antigen can do alone.
HAPTENS ARE LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT COMPOUND, MOSTLY SMALL ORGANIC MOLECULES THAT ARE ANTIGENIC BUT NOT IMMUNOGENIC. THEY CAN BIND TO ANTIBODIES BY THEMSELVES BUT THEY ARE NOT RECOGNISED BY THE IMMUNE CELLS

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
Immunity, vaccine, prophylaxis,immune system contains:
➢innate components (composed of primitive bone marrow cells that
are programmed to recognise foreign substances and react)
➢adaptive components (composed of more advanced lymphatic cells
that are programmed to recognise self substances and don't react
General immunity - is formed when the pathogen enters the bloodstream, as a
result, IgM and IgG (humoral immunity) are formed, and / or lymphocytes
specific against this pathogen are activated with different functional directions,
performing cellular protection (cellular immunity).
▪ Local immunity - is formed in places of accumulation of lymphoid tissue
(mucous membranes, salivary, mammary glands), intended for local humoral
(IgA and IgG) and cellular protection. Lymphoid tissue is especially potent in
the intestinal mucosa, less in the respiratory tract.
▪ It should be noted that the strength of the immune system and the speed of the
immune response increase with repeated, especially multiple, meetings with
the pathogen (booster effect).

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Key Topics:
Significance of Taste Sensation:
Differentiation between pleasant and harmful food
Influence on behavior
Selection of food based on metabolic needs
Receptors of Taste:
Taste buds on the tongue
Influence of sense of smell, texture of food, and pain stimulation (e.g., by pepper)
Primary and Secondary Taste Sensations:
Primary taste sensations: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Umami
Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)
Taste index relationship: Inversely proportional to taste threshold
Taste Blindness:
Inability to taste certain substances, particularly thiourea compounds
Example: Phenylthiocarbamide
Structure and Function of Taste Buds:
Composition: Epithelial cells, Sustentacular/Supporting cells, Taste cells, Basal cells
Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli

Increased number of fungiform papillae
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
