Introduction “The human body exists
in an environment of antagonistic forces that are constantly attacking and threatening its integrity.”
“In response to these onslaughts, the body exhibits a wide array of adaptations to protect against external and internal harmful agents.”
P. 753 Adult Health Nursing

Nature of Immunity
We have thingsinside our bodies thatprotect us from being
sick. These thingsare found in our
Immune system
![Page 5: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Nature of Immunity Functions of the immune system
1. Protect the body’s internal environment against invading organisms
2. Maintain homeostasis by removing damaged cells from the circulation
3. Serve as a surveillance network for recognizing and guarding against the development and growth of abnormal cells
![Page 6: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
ImmunologyThe study of the immune system Immunocompetence
The immune system responds appropriately to a foreign stimulus
ImmunityThe quality of being insusceptible
to or unaffected by a particular disease or condition
![Page 7: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
B-Cells make immunoglobulins(im-mu-no-glob-u-lins), also called antibodies(an-ti-bod-ies) or Igs.
![Page 10: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
There are 3 kinds of T-cells-Killer T-cells, Helper T-cells and Regulatory T-cells
![Page 12: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Complement System
The complement system can destroy the cell membrane of many bacterial species, and this action attracts phagocytes to the area
![Page 13: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Nature of Immunity Inappropriate responses:
If the immune response is too weak or too vigorous, homeostasis is disrupted, causing a malfunction of the system or : immunoincompetence
This can cause a number of diseases to manifest:
Pemphigus vulgaris: Torso
![Page 15: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Nature of Immunity
1. Hyperactive response against environmental antigens (allergy)
2. Inability to protect the body, as in immunodeficiency disorders (AIDS)
3. Failure to recognize the body as self, as in autoimmune disorders (systemic lupus erythematosus)
4. Attacks on beneficial foreign tissue (organ transplant rejection or transfusion reaction)
![Page 16: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Nature of Immunity Innate (natural) immunity
First line of defense
Provides physical and chemical barriers to invading pathogens and protects against the external environment
![Page 17: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Nature of Immunity
Provides non-specific immunity
![Page 19: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Nature of Immunity Adaptive (acquired) immunity
Second line of defense
Composed of thymus, spleen, bone marrow, blood, and lymph (p. 755 AHN)
![Page 20: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Nature of Immunity
Adaptive (acquired) ImmunityProduces antibodies in the cells
after an infection or vaccination
Received passively from mother’s antibodies, animal serum or from production of antibodies in response to disease
![Page 21: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Organization of the immune system.
(From Grimes, D. [1991]. Infectious diseases. St. Louis: Mosby.)
![Page 22: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Cells of the Immune System
Leukocytes (WBCs) are vital components of the immune system
Formed mostly in the bone marrow and partly in lymph tissue; fights infectious organisms
There are 6 types of WBCs normally found in the blood
![Page 23: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
6 Types of WBC
1. Neutrophils – ingest bacteria2. Eosinophils – allergic reactions,
parasitic invasions3. Basophils – secrete histamine4. Monocytes – may turn into
macrophages5. Lymphocytes – B cells & T cells6. Plasma cells
![Page 24: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Origin and processing of B and T cells.
![Page 25: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
B Cells
aka B Lymphocytes
Responsible for humoral immunity (immunity dominated by antibodies)
Stimulate plasma cells to secrete antibodies in response to antigens
Produce memory cells
![Page 26: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
T cells
aka T lymphocytes
Responsible for cellular immunity
T-suppressor and T-helper cells are important in understanding HIV
HIV is a progressive depletion of the CD4 T-helper cells
![Page 27: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Nature of Immunity Macrophages (phagocytes)
Engulf and destroy microorganisms that pass the skin and mucous membrane
Carry antigen to the lymphocytes Lymphokine
One of the chemical factors produced and released by T cells that attracts macrophages to the site of infection or inflammation
Antigen A substance recognized by the body as
foreign that can trigger an immune response
![Page 28: Immune System & Oncology Nursing Care PN 143 Rebecca Maier, BSN](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cda5503460f949a4971/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Humoral responseB cells: produce antibodies in
response to antigen challengeAn immediate responseProvides protection against acute,
rapidly developing bacterial and viral infection

Immune Response Cellular response
T cells: release lymphokine that attracts macrophages to site of infection
A delayed response; delayed hypersensitivity reaction
Active against slowly developing infections
Also involved in autoimmune response, some allergic reactions and rejection of foreign cells

Nature of Immunity
Humoral immunity
Responds to antigens such as bacteria and foreign tissue
Result of the development and continuing presence of circulating antibodies in the plasma
