The Immune System

Pathogens• Defined: microorganisms
that cause disease– Viruses: turn cells into
virus making factories

Pathogens• Defined: microorganisms
that cause disease– Viruses: turn cells into
virus making factories– Bacteria: prokaryotes
that can release toxic chemicals

Pathogens• Defined: microorganisms
that cause disease– Viruses: turn cells into
virus making factories– Bacteria: prokaryotes
that can release toxic chemicals
– Fungi: pierce cells and absorb the nutrients

Pathogens• Defined: microorganisms
that cause disease– Viruses: turn cells into
virus making factories– Bacteria: prokaryotes
that can release toxic chemicals
– Fungi: pierce cells and absorb the nutrients
– Protozoans: single cells protista (eukaryotes)
Plasmodium causes malaria

Pathogens• Defined: microorganisms
that cause disease– Viruses: turn cells into
virus making factories– Bacteria: prokaryotes
that can release toxic chemicals
– Fungi: pierce cells and absorb the nutrients
– Protozoans: single cells. Protists (eukaryotes)
– Parasites: grow and feed on a host
tapeworms

Transmission• Some carried by wind,
water, direct contact, indirect contact…
• Vectors: organism that carries a pathogen
Examples:1) Malaria – mosquitos
carry the protozoan2) Black Death – carried by
fleas of mice3) West Nile Virus – carried
by birds, but spread by mosquitoes

The Skin• 1st line of defense: physical barrier• Oils & sweat destroy some pathogens
–Some pathogens burst…some shrivel

Mucus Membranes
• Coat the openings of the body– Nose, mouth, ears, eyes, genitals, anus
• Lined with cilia & sticky fluids to trap pathogens

White Blood Cells
• Job: Search & destroy

White Blood Cells
• Job: Search & destroy• Type 1: Phagocytes
– surround & engulf invaders by phagocytosis

White Blood Cells
• Job: Search & destroy• Type 1: Phagocytes
– surround & engulf invaders by phagocytosis• Type 2: Lymphocytes
– create antibodies & destroy infected body cells

Blood stream

Defense Proteins• Antibodies
– Created & released by lymphocytes
– Attach to antigens (like handcuffs)

Defense Proteins• Antibodies
– Created & released by lymphocytes
– Attach to antigens (like handcuffs)
• How do they kill?1) Causes pathogens to
clump2) Weakens the cell
membrane of the pathogen

• Interferon1) Cell becomes
infected by virus2) Infected cell
sends interferon to healthy neighbors
3) Interferon causes healthy cell to create defense enzymes
4) Healthy cell able to fight virus

Vaccination• Prevents infections (not
a cure)• Vaccination process
– Weakened pathogen is injected
– Immune system produces…• Antibodies to fight
the weakened pathogen
• Memory cells for future infections
• Goal: Speed up immune response if you encounter the actual virus

Review
1) Which part of our immune system coats the openings of the body?
2) How do lymphocytes differ from phagocytes?3) What are antibodies and how do they help keep us from
harm?4) Which pathogen…
absorbs nutrients from living tissue?are prokaryotic?
5) Which illness is spread by mice?6) What is the vector of malaria?
