This document summarizes the immune system, including both innate and acquired immunity. It discusses the barriers that prevent pathogen entry and the components of the innate system that provide an immediate response, like phagocytes. The acquired system mounts a pathogen-specific response through B and T cells. It also covers the differences between these systems and gives examples of vaccination methods that stimulate immune memory.

The immune system has evolved to protect the host from a universe of pathogenic microbes that are themselves constantly evolving. The immune system also helps the host eliminate toxic or allergenic substances that enter our body. It is a host defence system comprising many biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against disease. To function properly, an immune system must detect a wide variety of agents, known as pathogens, from viruses to parasitic worms, and distinguish them from the organism's own healthy tissue. The host uses both innate and adaptive mechanisms to detect and eliminate pathogenic foreign bodies. Both of these mechanisms include self-nonself discrimination.
The main parts of the immune system are:
• White Blood Cells
• Antibodies
• Complement System
• Lymphatic System
• Spleen
• Bone Marrow
• Thymus.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Unit 2 immune systems(1)
1. UNIT 2: IMMUNE SYSTEMS
(Campbell & Reece, 2010 –
Chapter 43, EDULINK and
learning guide notes)
2. INTRODUCTION TO IMMUNITY
• An immune system is a system of
• biological structures and
• processes within an organism
• that protects against disease.
• In order to function properly, an
immune system must detect a wide
variety of agents, from viruses to
parasitic worms, and distinguish them
from the organism's own healthy
tissue.
3. COUNTER ACTION OF THESE AGENTS
These agents are referred to as
pathogens – an organism or substance
that could cause a disease.
Pathogens can rapidly evolve and adapt
to avoid detection and destruction by
the immune system.
As a result, multiple defence
mechanisms have also evolved to
recognize and neutralize pathogens.
4. Physical barriers prevent pathogens
such as bacteria and viruses from
entering the organism.
If a pathogen breaches these
barriers, the innate immune system
provides an immediate, but non-
specific response.
Innate immune systems are found in all
plants and animals.
5. INNATE IMMUNE SYSTEMS
Consist of cells and proteins that are
always present and ready to mobilize and
fight microbes at the site of infection.
The main components of the innate
immune system are:
1) physical epithelial barriers,
2) phagocytic leukocytes,
3) dendritic cells,
4) a special type of lymphocyte called a natural
killer (NK) cell, and
5) circulating plasma proteins.
6. If pathogens successfully evade the
innate response, vertebrates possess a
second layer of protection, the acquired
immune system,
which is activated by the innate
response.
Here, the immune system adapts its
response during an infection to improve
its recognition of the pathogen.
This improved response is then retained
after the pathogen has been eliminated, in
the form of an immunological memory,
and allows the acquired immune system to
mount faster and stronger attacks each
time this pathogen is encountered.
7. Differences in the components of the
immune system
Innate immune system Acquired immune system
Response is non-
specific
Pathogen and antigen
specific response
Exposure leads to
immediate maximal
response
Lag time between exposure
and maximal response
Cell-mediated and
humoral components
Cell-mediated and humoral
components
No immunological
memory
Exposure leads to
immunological memory
Found in nearly all
forms of life
Found only in jawed
vertebrates
8. 2. INNATE IMMUNITY
Innate immune responses are active
immediately upon infection and are the
same whether or not the pathogen has
been encountered previously.
It includes barrier defenses
and internal defenses
9. BARRIER DEFENSE SYSTEM
Includes:
the skin
Mucus membranes of
digestive-, respiratory- urinary
and reproductive tract
oBody secretions: mucus,
saliva (lysozymes), tears, oil
gland secretions, acid in
stomach, sweat.
10. Mucus membranes
Some cells in mucus membrane
produce mucus.
Mucus is a viscous (thickness)
fluid that enhances defences –
trapping microbes and other
foreign particles
11. In the trachea, ciliated
epithelial cells sweep mucus
and the trapped microbes
upwards, helping to prevent
infection of the lungs. mucus
12. Body secretions create an
environment that in
unfavourable for microbes.
Lysozymes in saliva, mucous
secretions, and tears destroy
susceptible bacteria as they
enter the respiratory tract or
openings around eyes.
Acid in stomach kill bacteria
Oils and sweat give human skin
a pH between 3-5, which is acidic
enough to prevent the growth of
microorganisms.
13. INTERNAL DEFENSE
If the barrier defences are
damaged and pathogens do enter
the body of an organism, a second
line of defence will be activated.
This defence system is the
internal defence system and is
more sensitive and includes:
phagocytosis and inflammation.
14. PHAGOCYTOSIS
Process by which certain living
cells called phagocytes ingest or
engulf other cells or particles.
The phagocyte may be a one-
celled organism, such as an
amoeba, or one of the body cells,
such as a leukocyte (white blood
cell).
In higher animals phagocytosis
is chiefly a defensive reaction
against infection and invasion of
the body
15. Different types of phagocytic
cells:
Neutrophils engulf and destroy
microbes
Macrophages are part of the
lymphatic system and are found
throughout the body
Eosinophils discharge destructive
enzymes
Dendritic cells stimulate
development of acquired immunity
19. INFLAMMATORY RESPONSES
When injured or infected by
pathogens, signalling molecules
are released,
One example of a signalling
molecules is histamine – stored in
mast cells.
These molecules trigger the blood
vessels to dilate and become
more permeable
20. This increase local blood supply and
allow more phagocytes and
antimicrobial proteins to enter
tissues
Pus, a fluid rich in white blood cells,
dead microbes, and cell debris,
accumulates at the site of inflammation
Fever is a systemic inflammatory
response triggered by pyrogens
released by macrophages, and toxins
from pathogens
21. MAJOR EVENTS IN A LOCAL
INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE
Activated
macrophages
and mast cells
at the injury site
release
signalling
molecules that
act on nearby
capillaries.
22. The capillaries dilate and
become more
permeable, allowing
fluid containing
antimibrobial peptides
to enter the tissue.
Signaling molecules
released by immune cells
attract additional
phagocytic cells.
24. ACQUIRED IMMUNITY
Acquired immunity is a specific immune
response system through which the
body specifically detects and destroys
particular substances.
This immunity protects us against
infectious diseases as the body has
learnt to recognize foreign substances.
It produces a specific reaction to each
infectious agent, eradicating that agent
from the body.
25. This ability to recognize a pathogen
that has previously elicited an immune
response is the basis for acquiring
immunity to specific diseases.
Hence, we suffer from many diseases,
such as chicken pox, measles etc. only
once.
Thus we can summarize: Acquired
immunity involves 2 main activities:
Destruction of the invaders
Memory of this response
26. WHICH CELLS ARE INVOLVED IN
ACQUIRED IMMUNITY RESPONSE?
Special leucocytes, called the
lymphocytes are released from the
bone marrow.
Some reach the Thymus gland and
mature to form T-lymphocytes (T-
cells)
Some become B-lymphocytes (B-
cells) and is present in the bone
marrow and lymph nodes)
29. ACTIVE ACQUIRED IMMUNITY
Active immunity occurs when a
person has already been exposed
to antigens (from pathogens)
And develops a secondary response
against specific pathogens.
People receive vaccinations to
develop a primary response, and
then if they get the pathogens later,
active immunity helps to fight
them off.
30. Antigens are foreign molecules,
found on the surface of pathogens,
each pathogen has a specific antigen.
The immunity system has countless
amounts of B-Lymphocytes.
Each B-lymphocyte is able to
recognize a specific antigen.
The B-lymphocytes then produce
antibodies that will bond to the
antigens.
This will neutralize or destroy the
pathogen.
31. PASSIVE IMMUNITY
In natural passive immunity, antibodies are
passed from a mother to a child.
Antibodies can be transferred through the
placenta, or transmitted through the colostrum.
The antibodies transmitted through the
colostrum and placenta generally only last for
several weeks, which is long enough to allow
the baby to start to build up its own immune
system and to make its own antibodies.
Artificial passive immunity involves the
introduction of antibodies through means such
as injection - VACCINATIONS.
32. HUMORAL VS. CELL MEDIATED
IMMUNITY
Humoral immunity - deals with infectious
agents in the blood and body tissues
Cell-mediated immunity - deals with body
cells that have been infected.
In general, the humoral system is managed
by B-cells (with help from T-cells).
The cell-mediated system is managed by T-
cells.
33. VACCINATIONS
All vaccinations work by presenting
a foreign antigen to the immune
system in order to evoke an
immune response, but there are
several ways to do this.
We will look at 4 methods:
34. 1. Using an inactivated vaccine
An inactivated vaccine consists of
virus or bacteria that are grown in
culture and then killed .
Although the virus or bacteria particles
are destroyed and cannot replicate, the
virus capsid proteins or bacterial wall
are intact enough to be recognized
and remembered by the immune
system.
This evokes an immune response.
35. 2. Using an attenuated vaccine
In an attenuated vaccine, live virus
or bacteria with very low virulence are
administered.
They will replicate, but locally or very
slowly.
Which causes an immune response to
produce antibodies.
36. 3. Virus-like particle vaccines
Virus-like particle vaccines consist of
viral protein(s) derived from the
structural proteins of a virus.
These proteins can self-assemble into
particles that resemble the virus from
which they were derived but lack viral
nucleic acid, meaning that they are not
infectious.
The human papillomavirus and Hepatitis
B virus vaccines are two virus-like
particle-based vaccines currently in
clinical use.
37. 4. A subunit vaccine
A subunit vaccine presents an
antigen to the immune system
without introducing viral particles.
One method of production involves
isolation of a specific protein from a
virus or bacterium and administering
this by itself.
38. ANTIBIOTICS
Antibiotics are also known as anti-
bacterials.
They are drugs used to treat
infections caused by bacteria.
The first antibiotic was penicillin.
39. How do antibiotics work?
Although there are a number of
different types of antibiotic they all
work in one of two ways:
A bactericidal antibiotic kills the
bacteria. Penicillin is a bactericidal. A
bactericidal usually either interferes with
the formation of the bacterium's cell
wall or its cell contents.
A bacteriostatic stops bacteria from
multiplying.
40. If antibiotics are overused or
used incorrectly there is a
chance that the bacteria will
become resistant - the antibiotic
becomes less effective against
that type of bacterium.
