Types of Immunity and Immunological Applications – Notes
- Types of Immunity:
- Humoral Immunity: Mediated by antibodies produced by B cells.
- Cellular Immunity: Involves T cells that attack infected or abnormal cells.
- Immunoglobulin Structure:
- Composed of two heavy and two light chains.
- Contains variable (antigen-binding) and constant regions.
- MHC Structure & Function:
- MHC I: Found on all nucleated cells; presents antigens to CD8+ T cells.
- MHC II: Found on antigen-presenting cells; presents to CD4+ T cells.
- Immune Responses:
- Hypersensitivity: Exaggerated immune reactions (Types I–IV).
- Stimulation: Enhances immune defense.
- Suppression: Reduces unwanted immune activity (e.g., autoimmune diseases).
- Vaccine & Serum Preparation:
- Methods vary for bacterial/viral vaccines, toxoids, antitoxins, and immune sera.
- Vaccine Storage:
- Requires controlled temperatures to maintain potency and stability.
- Hybridoma Technology:
- Produces monoclonal antibodies for diagnostics and therapy.
- Blood Products & Plasma Substitutes:
- Used in transfusions and for volume replacement in clinical settings
