  • Non-specific immunity
    Innate, even before birth. Addresses any microbe
  • Specific immunity

    To particular microbe
  • Stratum corneum
    • Mechanical barrier
  • 2nd line of defense

    • Prevent growth of microbes
  • Parts of 3rd line of defense
    • Complement
    • Inflammation
  • Complement and inflammation are primarily 2nd line of defense
  • Tissue injury
    1. Inflammation
    2. Vasodilation
    3. Permeability
    4. Emigration of Leukocytes
    5. Phagocytes
  • Vasodilation
    Increased in blood flow, carries it with heat that's why inflamed area is hot. Color red because of blood flow. Erythematous.
  • Permeability
    Cytokines causes endothelial cells to be further apart, allows exit of fluid from blood to the interstitium. Accumulation of fluid causes swelling.
  • Phagocytes
    Chemotaxis - macrophages go to the area where there is bacteria.
  • Exudate
    Includes proteins and fluid that exits the blood vessels
  • Enhanced phagocytosis
    When bacteria is coated with proteins
  • Occurs when there is employment of adaptive response
  • Regulatory cells
    Prevent excessive response, balances the activated lymphocytes
  • You exhaust the components of immune response, so you don't have reaction anymore
  • Active acquired immunity
    Requires activating the immune system to produce antibodies
  • Vaccines
    Present antigen to body so our body can create antibodies
  • Passive acquired immunity
    Antibody responds immediately as it is injected
  • Types of passive acquired immunity

    • Antibodies are directly injected for immediate injection
    • Natural, you develop it naturally, e.g. chicken pox
    • Artificial - gives antigen artificially, e.g. vaccine
  • Vaccines
    • Sinopharm
    • Sinovac
  • Suppressor T cells
    Suppress the reaction because too much is bad
  • Anaphylactic shock

    Hypotension, decreased blood volume, increased permeability, fluid in blood vessels goes out and into the tissue
  • First response is usually mild, the 2nd response is the one that causes reaction
  • Protozoan groups
    • SARCODINA - AMOEBA
    • MASTIGOPHORA - FLAGELLATES
    • CILIOPHORA - CILIATES
    • APICOMPLEXA - SPOROZOA
  • Both are facultative
  • American
    Si Cruz ay mahilig sa kiss sa lips (Kissing bugs)
  • African
    Si Bruce ay mahilig mag chacha (Tsetse)
  • Promastigotes
    Injected to new hosts, infective stage
  • Complex apex
    • -
  • Hosts
    • Mosquito - definitive host
    • Human - intermediate host
  • Malaria life cycle
    Sporozoites → Merozoites → Trophozoites → Merozoites → Gametocytes
  • Endemic in Palawan
  • P. vivax and ovale
    Can transform into dormant parasites
  • Cold stage
    Cytokines can switch thermostat to higher level
  • P. falciparum
    Cerebral malaria
  • Monoecious
    They still pair with other, they do not replicate on their own. Depends on them which one they will use - versa sila!!
  • Ascaris
    • Advanced organism
    • Can infect also pigs
    • Infective egg contains a larva
  • Ascaris life cycle
    Egg fertilized → Develop larva → Ingested → Goes to lungs → Coughed para mabalik sa mouth → Goes back and reswallowed → Matures in small intestine
  • Eosinophil
    For parasitism
  • Intussusception
    Distal intestines goes inside the proximal intestine
