Natural passive immunity- MOB-7894226802

• It is the resistance passively transferred


from the mother to the foetus through
placenta.
• Ig G antibodies can cross placental barrier
to reach the foetus.
• After birth, immunoglobins are passed to
the new born through the breast milk.
• Human colostrum (mothers 1st milk) rich in
Ig A.

Artificial passive immunity- MOB-7894226802

• It is the resistance passively transferred to a


recipient by administration of antibodies.
• This is done by administration of hyperimmune
sera of man or animals.
• serum (pl.sera) contains antibodies .
• For example, anti-tetanus serum (ATS) is prepared
in horses by active immunisation of horses with
tetanus toxoid, bleeding them and separating.
• ATS is used for passive immunisation against
tetanus.

Immune response MOB-7894226802

• When our body encounters a pathogen for the 1st time


it produces a response called primary response which is
low intensity.
• Subsequent encounter with the same pathogen elicits a
highly intensified secondary or Anamnestic response.
• This is due to our body appear to have memory of the
first encounter.
• The primary and secondary immune response are
carried out with the help of two special type of
lymphocytes present ion our blood.
• 1.B-Lymphocyte.
• 2.T-Lymphocyte.

Introduction- MOB-7894226802

• The body is normally able to distinguish its own


self-antigens from foreign non-self antigens and
does not mount an immunologic attack against
itself.
• This phenomenon is called immune tolerance.
• Auto immunity is a condition where immune
system fails to recognize self from non-self and
starts destroying the body's own proteins, this
leads to some malfunctions.

Cause of autoimmune disease- MOB-7894226802

• Autoimmunity is caused due to the –


• 1.genetic factors.-genes for T-cell receptors and MHC
genes .
• 2.envirionmental factors- certain drugs, chemical
toxins, elevated in autoimmune disorder.
• 3.viral-
• 4.hormonal
• 5.psycho-neuro-immunological-influence of stress and
neurochemicals
• Here the functions of T helper cell increases and
decreased suppressor T-cell so caused autoimmune
disease.
