Immunology is the study of the immune system and its functions of protecting the body from infectious organisms like viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. The immune system is a complex system consisting of organs, molecules, cells, and pathways that work together to fight pathogens, provide protection, and distinguish self from non-self. Antigens are substances that can generate an immune response by binding to immune cells and antibodies. Immunogens are antigens that are capable of eliciting an immune response, while haptens are small molecules that need a carrier like a protein to elicit an antibody response.

Natural killer (NK) cells are a type of lymphocyte that plays a major role in the innate immune system by killing tumor cells and virally infected cells. NK cells are cytotoxic and contain granules with proteins like perforin and granzymes that can induce apoptosis in target cells. Patients deficient in NK cells are highly susceptible to herpes virus infections. NK cells recognize and kill tumor or infected cells but can also communicate signals to block destruction of tumors or viruses depending on the signals they receive. They are activated through killer activating receptors. [END SUMMARY]

Immunitybyasogwainnocentkingsley1 131219110304-phpapp02
The document summarizes immunity and the immune system. It defines immunity as the body's ability to resist harmful microbes and discusses the immune system's role in protecting the body from disease. The immune system uses both innate and acquired immunity. Innate immunity provides non-specific defenses like physical barriers and inflammatory responses. Acquired immunity allows for specific pathogen recognition through B cells, T cells, and antibodies and provides immunological memory.
Introduction and Types of immunology
Immunology is the study of the immune system and its functions. The immune system protects the body from infection through innate and adaptive immunity. Innate immunity provides immediate defense against pathogens while adaptive immunity involves immune cells that develop memory to mount stronger responses against specific pathogens. When not functioning properly, the immune system can lead to autoimmune diseases, allergies, and cancer.
AQA as biology Immunity
The document provides an overview of the human immune system and how it responds to pathogens. It discusses the four main stages of the immune response: 1) phagocytosis where phagocytes engulf pathogens, 2) T-cell activation where T-cells recognize antigens, 3) B-cell activation and plasma cell production where B-cells secrete antibodies, and 4) antibody production where plasma cells secrete antibodies specific to the pathogen. It also covers primary versus secondary immune responses, vaccines, antigenic variation in pathogens, and the potential use of monoclonal antibodies to fight diseases like cancer.
Types of immunity
This document discusses different types of immunity. It describes innate or natural immunity which individuals are born with and includes species, racial, and individual immunity. Innate immunity acts as the first line of defense and is provided by the skin, mucous membranes, and phagocytic cells. Acquired or adaptive immunity develops after exposure to pathogens and includes both active and passive immunity. Acquired immunity has humoral components involving antibodies and cellular components involving T cells. Herd immunity is also discussed, where a community's immunity protects even unvaccinated individuals when a high percentage of the population is immune.
Introduction of immunology for bph class
This document provides an overview of the immune system. It discusses that immunology is the study of protection from foreign molecules and organisms. The immune system uses a complex array of defensive measures, collectively called the immune system, to battle against microbial invaders. Immunity is the state of resistance exhibited by the host against toxins, microorganisms, and foreign cells. The immune system can be divided into innate immunity, which provides the first line of defense, and acquired immunity, which develops after exposure and relies on memory responses from lymphocytes. The document further discusses antigens, antibodies, and the different classes of antibodies.

Basic_Immunology_Introduction.ppt
The document provides an overview of the human immune system, including its major components and functions. It discusses how the innate and adaptive immune systems work together to defend against pathogens. The immune system must balance fighting infections while avoiding attacks on the body's own tissues. When this balance is disrupted, it can lead to immunodeficiency diseases, autoimmunity, allergies, or transplant rejection. Vaccines stimulate adaptive immunity to generate immunological memory and protect against severe infectious diseases.
461-137 IMMUNOLOGY (ZOOLOGY).docx
Immunology is the study of the immune system, a branch of medical and biological sciences. The immune system recognizes and responds to antigens in order to protect the individual from diseases. It must detect infections, contain and eliminate them via immune effector functions, and regulate the immune response to limit damage to the host. Exposure to an infectious agent produces immune memory that protects against future exposure. The immune system protects against four classes of pathogens: extracellular bacteria, parasites, and fungi; intracellular bacteria and parasites; viruses; and parasitic worms. Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins that help fight foreign substances called antigens. The main types of antibodies are IgG, IgA, IgM, IgE, and IgD.

Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

Unlocking the mysteries of reproduction: Exploring fecundity and gonadosomati...
The pygmy halfbeak Dermogenys colletei, is known for its viviparous nature, this presents an intriguing case of relatively low fecundity, raising questions about potential compensatory reproductive strategies employed by this species. Our study delves into the examination of fecundity and the Gonadosomatic Index (GSI) in the Pygmy Halfbeak, D. colletei (Meisner, 2001), an intriguing viviparous fish indigenous to Sarawak, Borneo. We hypothesize that the Pygmy halfbeak, D. colletei, may exhibit unique reproductive adaptations to offset its low fecundity, thus enhancing its survival and fitness. To address this, we conducted a comprehensive study utilizing 28 mature female specimens of D. colletei, carefully measuring fecundity and GSI to shed light on the reproductive adaptations of this species. Our findings reveal that D. colletei indeed exhibits low fecundity, with a mean of 16.76 ± 2.01, and a mean GSI of 12.83 ± 1.27, providing crucial insights into the reproductive mechanisms at play in this species. These results underscore the existence of unique reproductive strategies in D. colletei, enabling its adaptation and persistence in Borneo's diverse aquatic ecosystems, and call for further ecological research to elucidate these mechanisms. This study lends to a better understanding of viviparous fish in Borneo and contributes to the broader field of aquatic ecology, enhancing our knowledge of species adaptations to unique ecological challenges.
The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

The technology uses reclaimed CO₂ as the dyeing medium in a closed loop process. When pressurized, CO₂ becomes supercritical (SC-CO₂). In this state CO₂ has a very high solvent power, allowing the dye to dissolve easily.
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

Deep Software Variability and Frictionless Reproducibility
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless ReproducibilityUniversity of Rennes, INSA Rennes, Inria/IRISA, CNRS
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

Immunology.pptx
- 1. IMMUNOLOGY Basic Fundamentals What is immunology? Infectious organisms Immune system Antigenicity Types of antigens Sources of antigens Immunogenicity Immunogens Haptens
- 2. DEFINITION OF IMMUNOLOGY Immunology is the study of the immune system and its functioning. Immune system protects us from attack by microbes and worms. The fully functioning immune system involves various organs, molecules, cells and pathwaysin such an interconnected and sometimes circular process. Range of infectious organisms: 1. Worms eg. Tapeworms, Filaria 2. Protozoans eg. Trypanosomes, Leishmania, Plasmodium 3. Fungi eg. Candida, Aspergillus 4. Bacteria eg. Staphylococcus 5. Viruses eg. Polio virus, Hepatitis B
- 3. PROPERTIES OF IMMUNE SYSTEM COMPLEX SYSTEM CONSISTING OF VARIOUS COMPONENTS WORKING TOGETHER BLOCKS AND FIGHTS THE PATHOGENS AND PROVIDES PROTECTION PROVIDES IMMUNE RESPONSE HELPS IN COMMUNICATION BETWEEN CELLS PLAYS AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN SELF AND NON-SELF DISTINCTION
- 4. ANTIGENICITY: o IT IS THE ABILITY OF A SUBSTANCE TO BIND TO THE PRODUCT OF AN IMMUNE RESPONSE. o SUBSTANCES THAT CAN GENERATE IMMUNE RESPONSE ARE CALLED ANTIGENS. o SUBSTANCES THAT ARE CAPABLE OF ELICITING AN IMMUNE RESPONSE ARE CALLED IMMUNOGENS. o ALL IMMUNOGENS ARE ANTIGENS BUT ALL ANTIGENS ARE NOT IMMUNOGENS. o AN ANTIGEN WHICH CANNOT ELICITE AN IMMUNE RESPONSE OR ANTIGENS WHICH ARE NOT IMMUNOGENS ARE CALLED HAPTENS. o EPITOPE: IMMUNOLOGICALLY ACTIVE REGION OF AN IMMUNOGEN (OR AN ANTIGEN) THAT BIND TO ANTIGENIC SPECIFIC MEMBRANE RECEPTOR OR ANTIBODY. o MULTIVALENT ANTIGEN: THESE ARE ANTIGENS HAVING MANY EPITOPES.
- 5. TYPES OF ANTIGEN BASED ON NATURE • PROTEINS (highly immunogenic) • POLYSACCHARIDES (less immunogenic) • NUCLEIC ACIDS (poor immunogenic) • LIPIDS (no or poor immunogenic) SOURCES OF ANTIGENS: Exogenous antigens eg. Bacteria, virus, parasite, fungi,etc Endogenous antigens eg. Faulty proteins, nucleoproteins, infected cells,etc
- 6. IMMUNOGENICITY It is the ability of a substance to induce immune response. When an immunogen binds with immune cells, an immune response is produced. HAPTENS: They are small molecules which when combined with a larger carrier such as proteins can elicit the production of antibodies. Haptens are antigenic but not immunogenic. Examples of hapten: DNP, fluorescein, penicillin, etc
