Innate immunity vs adaptive immunity

The immune response to viral infection comprises innate and adaptive defenses. The innate response, which we have discussed previously, functions continuous ...

Time course of responses of adaptive immunity👇 📎The adaptive immune response happens in multiple steps. The first step is antigen recognition at timepoint 0 leading to the activation of only those B and/or T clones that specifically bind the antigen. The effector phase of the following 14 days is composed of lymphocyte activation step and the antigen elimination step. When the antigen has disappeared, the contraction phase of immune response starts, most B and T cells die by apoptosis and…

Acquired (adaptive or specific) immunity is a type of immunity that develops when a person’s immune system responds to a foreign substance or microorganism, or that occurs after a person receives antibodies from another source, Types of acquired immunity are adaptive and passive, Adaptive immunity occurs in response to being infected with or vaccinated against a microorganism.

What part of an antibody molecule determines its class? What class of antibody is involved in protection against parasites? Describe the difference in structure between IgM and IgG

Innate Immunity is present right from the birth but acquired or adaptive immunity is acquired during the course of life.

The inflammatory response in pediatric sepsis is highly dynamic and includes both pro- and anti-inflammatory elements that involve the innate and adaptive immune systems. While the pro-inflammatory response is responsible for the initial clinical signs and symptoms of sepsis, a concurrent compensatory anti-inflammatory response often results in an occult, but highly clinically relevant, form of acquired immunodeficiency. When severe, this is termed “immunoparalysis” and is associated with…

Some of the differences are: S.N. Characteristics Innate Immunity Adaptive Immunity 1. Synonyms Nonspecific, natural immunity Specific, acquired immunity 2. Definition The defense mechanisms that are non-antigen specific and immediately come into play on the antigen’s appearance in the body. The defense mechanism that is not always present but involve antigen-specific immune response. 3. Order of defense It is the first line of defense of immune system. It is the action against pathogens

The Immune System: A Comprehensive Overview Innate Immunity: This section highlights the body's first line of defense against pathogens, which includes barrier defenses like skin and mucous membranes. The second line involves internal defenses, including inflammation, phagocytosis, and natural killer cells. It explains how these mechanisms work to fight off infection without prior exposure. Adaptive Immunity: This section focuses on the body's specific immune response. It describes: Humoral…
