TYPCS {)f PflJH{)GCNS: Viruses: flu, cold, chicken pox, polio .• .EYngl: athletes foot, toenail fungus Bacteria: E. coli, TB, botulism, tetanus Protozoa: amoeba, malaria .• Flatworms: flukes, planaria .•• Roundworms: threadworms (cause elephantitis) Airb.orne: we breathe it into lungs Water-borne: we drink it and it enters into intestine Food-borne: we eat it and it enters into intestine Insect-borne (virus or bacteria carried by insect): pathogen injected into bloodstream via a bite/sting .DirectCo: contact with skin or saliva : oral, anal or vaginal sex The body has three lines of defence to fight off invaders The first two are non-specific (do not distinguish between invaders) The third is specific (it is our immune system) Made of skin and mucous membranes (in nose, eyes, etc.) • Skins secretions are acidic • Enzymes in tears, saliva, mucous, and sweat kill bacteria and other invaders • Mucous traps invaders in airways and cilia sweep the invaders out

of respiratory tract Kicks in when 1st line of defence fails and an invader enters the body Composed of Leukocytes (White Blood Cells) Leukocytes engulf invaders and digest them All cells have markers on their membranes The immune system recognizes the bodys cells and does not produce antibodies to fight these cells The markers on invading cells are recognized as antigens {antibody generators), and the immune system causes antibodies to be made against them IMMUNE SYSTEM c~+o+o~Lc Memor~ T cell T cell TVJ~mu~ L~mpVJ •••• •• node~ ~pken ••J •• Long bone (mvlrrow) --?ICil~tYlCil ~ cell cell L£lJKCCYT£S The blood contains two types of white blood cell or leukocytes Phagocytes ingest bacteria by endocytosis Lymphocytes produce antibodies flNTIBODIES • Antibodies are proteins that recognise and bind to specific antigens • Antigens are foreign substances that stimulate the production of antibodies • Many of the molecules on the

STEP 4: PR()Llf£Rf1Tl()N The activated B-cell starts to divide by mitosis to form a clone of plasma cells. Plasma cells are activated B-cells with a very extensive network of rough endoplasmic reticulum. n Plasma cells synthesize large y amounts of antibody, which the;) A-.JJr !t V i~ ~ excrete by exocytosis. J. JY

i"" JJf y ~--c J.r ~t If an antigen invades your body a second time, a much faster response occurs which produces much larger quantity of the required antibody. When activated B-cells are dividing during the primary response, some cells stop dividing and secreting antibody and become memory cells. Large numbers of memory cells remain in the body for a long time, and are capable of producing large amounts of antibody very quickly when stimulated.

IJflS()C()NSTRICTl{)N Slows blood flow and reduces blood loss 2. PLflT£L£T PLUG When a blood vessel is damaged, collagen fibres are exposed Platelets are

attracted to the collagen and become activated This causes more platelets to aggregate at the site. 3. BL()()D CL()JTING Clotting factors are released EITHER from the damaged tissue cells or the platelets The clotting factors set off a series of reactions where the product of the first reaction is the catalyst for the next reaction This happens for two reasons: • To ensure a clot forms only when necessary · To enable a very rapid response TH£ f CRMflTl()N ()f TH£ CL()J In the last stage of the chain reaction, f ibrinogen, a soluble plasma protein is converted to insoluble fibrin by thrombin This forms a mesh, that will catch even more platelets Clotting Factors 7 Prothrombln Thrombin 7 Flbrlnogen (soluble) Broken Activated platelet •• . • Damaged Blood Vessel Injury to vessel lining triggers the release of clotting factors Formation of Platelet Plug Vasoconstriction limits blood flow and platelets form a sticky plug Fibrin (insoluble) Fibrin strands 7
