This note covers the following topics: Pathogens and
antigens, Cord blood transplants, Innate immune response, Adaptive immune
response, Antibody diversity, Antigen combining sites, Allergy, Cellular
immunity, Clonal selection theory, Regulation by the MHC, Lack of
immune response to self, HLA genetic diversity and Monoclonal
antibodies.
This lecture note explains cells and tissues of the immune system,
lymphocyte development, the structure and function of antigen receptors, the
cell biology of antigen processing and presentation, including molecular
structure and assembly of MHC molecules, the biology of cytokines,
leukocyte-endothelial interactions, and the pathogenesis of immunologically
mediated diseases.
The aim of
this document is to examine the claims that probiotic supplements can be used
for the treatment of allergic diseases. Topics covered includes: Allergy,
Atopy, Allergic Diseases, Hygiene hypothesis, microbial origin of allergic
disease hypothesis, and probiotics, Probiotics and Allergic Disease, Quality of
Clinical Studies, Probiotics and Respiratory Allergy, Probiotics and Food
Allergy, Probiotics and Atopic Eczema, Some safety aspects of probiotics for
allergy treatment.
This note explains the
following topics: Atopy, Allergy, Hypersensitivity reactions, Pathomechanism,
Allergic and non allergic rhinitis, Food allergy, Urticaria, angioedema,
Anaphylaxis, Drug allergy and Sting insect allergy.
Allergic diseases, are a
number of conditions caused by hypersensitivity of the immune system to
something in the environment that usually causes little problem in most people.
The chapters included in the book Allergic diseases - New Insights addressed a
variety of important topics related to distinct aspects related to allergy. The
contribution of outstanding expert authors from many countries provided update
reviews on basic, clinical and treatment aspects and put in evidence further
research regarding the knowledge of immune system responses and key points of
allergic inflammatory reactions.
This booklet explains the definition of primary immuno deficiency
disorders, how to suspect a primary Immuno deficiency Disorder, clinical
history and physical examination.

students in the life sciences to the intricate ins and outs of the immune
system, innate and adaptive immunity and immune tolerance.
This note covers the following topics: Adaptve Defense Mechanisms,
The Adaptive Immune Response, Vaccination, Immunoglobulin Classes,
Immunoglobulin Diagnostics, Lymphatic System, T Cells And T Cell
Receptor, Inadequate Defense, Disease Caused By Immune Reactions, Immune
Complex Diseases, Damage By Cellular Immune Responses.
