Immune System
This defends the body against pathogens and damage
Adaptive Immune System
This immune system is specific, systemic, and has memory. B cells, T cells, and APCs (Antigen Presenting Cells) are the three main types of cells in this system.
Adaptive Immunity
This is a delayed response to specific antigens. These are specific defenses mounted after a foreign material is detected. It is uncommitted until a defense against a threat is needed. These defenses include T-lymphocytes and B-lymphocytes such as plasma cells. These resources are dedicated to a defense against a single threat. It is systemic throughout the body and it has memory so future encounters will be taken care of more swiftly and powerfully.
Complement
This is a group of 20+ proteins in the blood that when activated, act by enhancing other innate immune responses such as inflammation and opsonization, as well as directly killing invading bacteria by insertion of the MAC (membrane attack complex) into the bacterial membrane.
Inflammation
This is a non-specific response to trauma, heat, chemical damage, and pathogens. It functions to prevent the spread of damaging agents, disposes of cell debris and pathogens, and promotes repair. Hallmark signs are redness, heat, swelling, pain, and impairment in function.
Hydrochloric Acid
This is a part of the first line of defense for the gastrointestinal tract. It is a strong acid produced within the stomach that creates a very low pH that destroys many bacteria, bacterial toxins, and other microbes that enter the stomach.
Saliva
This is a part of the first line of defense for the gastrointestinal tract. This consists of secretions released into the mount from the salivary glands; contains lysozyme and IgA. It helps wash away microbes and contains antimicrobial substances.
Mucus
This is a part of the first line of defense for the mucous membranes. It's a thick secretion that helps trap microbes. Contains antimicrobial substances such as lysozyme, defensins, and IgA.

This is a secretion the body uses for it's first line of defense. It's a fluid produced by lacrimal glands that contain lysozyme and IgA. It washes microbes away from the surface of eyes and contains antimicrobial agents.
Cerumen
This is a secretion the body uses for it's first line of defense. This waxy secretion is produced in the external auditory meatus. These secretions act to waterproof the external auditory meatus and may trap microbes in the external ear.
Natural Killer Cells
This is a type of lymphocyte that targets cells without a self identifier, making them non-specific. They play a key role in innate immunity. They are formed in the bone marrow and circulate in the blood, accumulating in lymphatic structures such as the lymph nodes, tonsils, and spleen. Once activated, they aggressively attack a wide variety of foreign and defective cells. These cells also induce apoptosis, a programmed cell death.
Fever
This is an elevation of body temperature in response to infection that enhances the activity of the immune system. It has a kinetic effect to increase the number of chemical reactions and inhibits optimal bacterial growth.
Innate Immunity
This is an immediate response to a wide array of substances. They are relatively nonspecific and constitutive. These defenses include skin and mucosal membranes that prevent entry and nonspecific internal defenses such as cells, chemicals, and physiologic responses.
Normal Flora
This is part of the first line of defense for the skin and mucous membranes. These help prevent growth of pathogenic microbes. Composed of commensal flora, including nonpathogenic bacteria.
Exfoliation
This is part of the first line of defense for the skin. It helps remove potential pathogens from the skin surface; sloughing off of epidermal cells.

This is part of the first line of defense for the skin. It slows migration of microbes that have penetrated the epidermis. It's a mucopolysaccharide with a gel-like consistency that is located in areolar tissue of the dermis.
Urine
This is part of the first line of defense for the urogenital tract. It's formed in the kidneys and transported out of the body through the urinary tract, flushing microbes with it.
Opsonization
This is the binding of a protein to a portion of bacteria or other cell type that enhances phagocytosis. Bacteria are tagged for destruction by macrophages. This immune response is enhanced by complement.
Release of various chemicals
This is the first step in the inflammatory process
Delivery of Plasma Proteins
This is the last step in the inflammatory response. Antibodies, complement, kinins, and clotting factors are brought to the site.
Chemotaxis
This is the migration of leukocytes along a chemical gradient. Leukocytes move towards increasing concentration of chemokines (chemotactic factors).
Margination
This is the process by which CAMs on leukocytes adhere to the CAMs on the endothelial cells of the capillaries within the injured tissue. The result is similar to "cellular velcro". Neutrophils are generally first to arrive and are short-lived, followed later by the longer-lived macrophages.
Diapedesis
This is the process by which leukocytes exit the blood by "squeezing out" between vessel wall cells, usually in the postcapillary venules, and then migrate to the site of infection.
Vascular Changes
This is the second step in the inflammatory response. Dilation occurs, increasing blood flood to the injured region resulting in renews and heat.
