M ec han ism o f Humoral Immun ity
* A nt ibod ies induce res istance t h roug h:
1) A nt itox in neutral ize bacter ial tox ins (d iph ther ia, tetanus )
Ant itox in are developed act ively as a result o f:
a- Prev ious inf ect ion
b- A rt ificial immun izat ion
c- Trans f erred pass ively as ant iserum
* Neutral izat ion o f tox in w ith ant itox in prevents a comb inat ion w ith

RECOGNITION and A CTIVATION
PHA SEThe Humoral response starts w hen a cell o f the immune system engul f s an ant igen.
Ins ide t he cell, t he new ves icle is called aphagosome.
The p hagosome f uses w ith a alysosome w hich conta ins d igest ive en zymes.

A CTIVATION PHA SE CON T
The en zymes breakdown t he engul f ed part icleinto f ragments, in a p henomenon calledant igen process ing.
Wi thin t he cells t he processed ant igenscomb ine w ith class M HC prote ins.
The complex is d isplayed on t he macrop hage splasma membrane.

A CTIVATION PHA SE CON T
This d isplay is known as ant igen presentat ion,and macrop hages are cons idered ant igenpresent ing cells ( A PC).A helper T cell part icipates in t he next stageo f the Humoral immune response.
This helper T cell has T cell receptors t hat canb ind to bot h the class II M HC prote in and t hispart icular presented ant igen. T he helper T-Cellis t he Opson in.

A CTIVATION PHA SE CON T
This b ind ing tr iggers t he macrop hage torelease cytok ine interleuk in-1, w hich act ivatesthe helper T cell.
The act ivated helper T cell now releases itsown cytok ines, w hich st imulate t he helper Tcell to mult iply.
The cell prol if erates to f orm a clone o f helperT cells, all w ith the same T cell receptors.

THE EFFECTOR PHA SE
The e ff ector p hase beg ins w ith a B cell.
The B cell has membrane bound Ig M receptors
that are spec ific f or t he same ant igen asor iginally engul f ed by t he macrop hage.A n IgM receptor b inds to t he ant igen and t hecell engul f s t he complex by receptor-med iatedendocytos is.

EFFECTOR PHA SE
The internal ized ves icle f uses w ith a lysosome,which conta ins d igest ive en zymes.
The en zymes d igest t he ant igen, process ing itinto f ragments.
The processed ant igen is t hen attac hed toclass II M HC molecules and d isplayed on t hesur f ace o f the B cell.

EFFECTOR PHA SE CON T
A helper T cell f rom t he clone o f the helper Tcells in t he act ivat ion p hase can now b ind tothe ant igen d isplayed by t he B cell.
The helper T cell receptor spec ificallyrecogn izes t he ant igen on t he class II M HCprote in.
Upon b ind ing, t he helper T cell releasescytok ines t hat st imulate t he B cell to d ivideand create a clone o f ident ical cells.

EFFECTOR PHA SE CON TThe result ing B cells develop into e ither long-lived memory cells or into ant ibody-secret ingplasma cells.
Plasma cells have extens ive endoplasm icret iculum and numerous r ibosomes.
Plasma cells are essent ially ant ibody f actor ies
They produce and secrete ant ibod ies o f thespec ificity ident ical to t hat o f the sur f acereceptors on t he parent B cell.

EFFECTOR PHA SE CON T
Like t he sur f ace Ig M receptors on t he parent Bcell, t he ant ibod ies secreted by t he plasma cellcan b ind to and inact ivate t he or iginal ant igen.
