What is the difference between nonspecific and specific defense, and the role of lymphocytes in the immune response?
????????? • The ability to resist infection and disease
Immunity • The ability to resist infection and disease
?????????? Defenses • Lymphocytes: • part of the immune response • Identify, attack, and develop immunity: • to a specific pathogen
Specific Defenses • Lymphocytes: • part of the immune response • Identify, attack, and develop immunity: • to a specific pathogen
Nonspecific Defenses • Block or attack any potential infectious organism • Cannot distinguish one attack from another PLAY Immunity: Nonspecific Defenses
What are the major components of the lymphatic system and their functions?
4 Parts of the Lymphatic System What are they?
4 Parts of the Lymphatic System • Lymph: • a fluid similar to plasma • does not have plasma proteins • Lymphatic vessels(lymphatics): • network that carries lymph from peripheral tissues to the venous system
4 Parts of the Lymphatic System • Lymphoid tissues and lymphoid organs: • found throughout the body • Lymphocytes, phagocytes, and other immune system cells
Organization of the Lymphatic System 3D Rotation of the Lymphatic System PLAY Figure 22–1
Lymphocyte Production • 3 places that lymphocytes are produced:
Lymphocyte Production • Lymphocytes are produced: • lymphoid organs (e.g., spleen, thymus) • and in red bone marrow • in lymphoid tissues (e.g., tonsils)
Lymphocyte Distribution • Lymphocytes: • detect problems • travel into site of injury or infection
???????? • Are special lymphatic capillaries in small intestine • Transport lipids from digestive tract
Lacteals • Are special lymphatic capillaries in small intestine • Transport lipids from digestive tract
Lymphatic Vessels and Valves Figure 22–3
?????????????? • Blockage of lymph drainage from a limb • Causes severe swelling • Interferes with immune system function
Lymphedema • Blockage of lymph drainage from a limb • Causes severe swelling • Interferes with immune system function
Why are lymphocytes important, and how are they distributed in the body?
Lymphocytes • Make up ????????????? % of circulating leukocytes • Most are stored, not circulating
Lymphocytes • Make up 20–30% of circulating leukocytes • Most are stored, not circulating
3 Classes of Circulating Lymphocytes • T cells: • thymus-dependent • Make up 80% of circulating lymphocytes • B cells: • bone–marrow derived • NK cells: • natural killer cells
3 Main Types of T Cells • Cytotoxic T cells • Helper T cells • Suppressor T cells
Cytotoxic T Cells • Attack cells infected by viruses • Produce cell-mediated immunity
Helper T Cells • Stimulate function of T cells and B cells
Suppressor T Cells • Inhibit function of T cells and B cells
“Regulatory T Cells” • Are helper and suppressor T cells • Control sensitivity of immune response
B Cells • Make up 10–15% of circulating lymphocytes • Differentiate into ??????????????? cells
B Cells • Make up 10–15% of circulating lymphocytes • Differentiate into plasma cells
Plasma Cells • Produce and secrete ????????????(immunoglobin proteins)
Plasma Cells • Produce and secrete antibodies(immunoglobin proteins)
???????????? • Targets which identify any pathogen or foreign compound
Antigens • Targets which identify any pathogen or foreign compound
Natural Killer(NK)Cells • Also called large granular lymphocytes • Make up 5–10% of circulating lymphocytes
Natural Killer(NK)Cells • Responsible for immunological surveillance • Attack: • foreign cells • virus-infected cells • cancer cells
Production and Distribution of Lymphocytes Figure 22–5
Lymphoid Stem Cells • Group 1: • remain in bone marrow • produce B cells and natural killer cells
Lymphoid Stem Cells • Group 2: • migrate to thymus • produce T cells in environment isolated by blood-thymus barrier
T Cells and B Cells • Migrate throughout the body: • to defend peripheral tissues • Retain their ability to divide: • is essential to immune system function
What are the structures and functions of lymphoid tissues and organs?
Lymphoid Tissues • Connective tissues dominated by lymphocytes
Lymphoid Nodules Figure 22–6
Lymphoid Nodule • Areolar tissue with densely packed lymphocytes • Germinal center contains dividing lymphocytes
Distribution of Lymphoid Nodules • Lymph nodes • Spleen • Respiratory tract (tonsils) • Along digestive and urinary tracts
Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue(???????????????) • Lymphoid tissues associated with the digestive system: • aggregated lymphoid nodules: • clustered deep to intestinal epithelial lining • Appendix: • mass of fused lymphoid nodules
Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue(MALT) • Lymphoid tissues associated with the digestive system: • aggregated lymphoid nodules: • clustered deep to intestinal epithelial lining • Appendix: • mass of fused lymphoid nodules
The 5 ?????????? • In wall of pharynx: • left and right palatine ?? • pharyngeal ? (adenoid) • 2 lingual ??
