Course content
|
Immunology makes acquainted with particular mechanisms of immune response - inherit and adaptive immunity and their humoral and cell components asserting in defense against infection and tumor proliferation. Setting basic immunological terms: humoral immunity, solubility molecules unspecific defense, complement, interferons, antibodies, cell immunity, myelod and lymfoid cell lines of white blood cells (polymorphonuclear leukocytes, fagocytes, dendritic cells, Nk cells, efector and regulation T-lymfocytes, B-lymfocytes, APC), mastocytes, trombocytes, erytrocytes, MHC molecules, cytokines, chemokines, family of TNF proteins, adhesive molecules. Familiarization with principles of activation and regulation of the basic immunological mechanisms is the main aim of the course: inflammation, antigen discrimination, antigen presentation , mechanisms liable for diversity of antibodies and receptor T-lymfocytes, induction of specific immunity response B a T-lymfocytes, immunological memory, regulation T-lymfocytes, importance of PAMP during the induction of immunity response. Immunological statuses: autoimmunity, primary and secondary immunodeficiency, reaction of hypersensitiveness, atopic. In terms of anti -tumor immunity the main accent will be given on mechanisms of immunity control of tumor proliferation by T-lymfocytes, NK cells, ADC, complement. There will be talked over recent immunological methods in diagnostics, in treatment and in prevention of tumor proliferation.

Immunology makes acquainted with particular mechanisms of immune response - inherit and adaptive immunity and their humoral and cell components asserting in defense against infection and tumor proliferation.
