- 0:00hey guys it's mitycos perfectionist
- 0:02where medicine makes perfect sense let's
- 0:04continue our biology playlist in the
- 0:06last section we talked about the
- 0:08cardiovascular system today we'll turn
- 0:10our attention to the immune system how
- 0:12your body defends itself against foreign
- 0:16invaders with that said now let's get
- 0:18started but before we get started please
- 0:20understand that today is a brief
- 0:22discussion if you want a more detailed
- 0:24discussion check my physiology playlist
- 0:27what is immunity it's the ability of
- 0:29your body to resist microorganisms or
- 0:32toxins we have two types of immunity
- 0:35innate or non-specific and acquired or
- 0:38specific non-specific doesn't learn
- 0:40doesn't care such as the acid in your
- 0:43stomach do you think the acid in your
- 0:45stomach cares whether what's inside is
- 0:48bacteria virus fungus or parasite no it
- 0:51does not do you think the acid cares if
- 0:54this is the primary exposure or the
- 0:56secondary exposure to the invader heck
- 0:59no however in acquired specific or
- 1:02adaptive immunity of course we care
- 1:05about the type of the organism there is
- 1:07a specific response for every organism
- 1:11and of course we care whether this is
- 1:13the first exposure or the second
- 1:15encounter with the same dopas before we
- 1:18dig deeper let me remind you that your
- 1:20blood is made of plasma and cells the
- 1:22plasma is water and proteins proteins
- 1:25are albumin and globulin globulins are
- 1:28alpha beta or gamma globulins these are
- 1:30huge because these are your
- 1:32immunoglobulins or antibodies antibodies
- 1:36against whom against foreign invaders
- 1:39you also have cells red blood cells
- 1:42white blood cells and platelets when it
- 1:43comes to immunity which one do we care
- 1:46about the white blood cells here are the
- 1:49red blood cells here are the platelets
- 1:51and everything else is the white blood
- 1:54cells all of them by the way come from
- 1:56the bone marrow pluripotent stem cells
- 1:59when it comes to immunity we focus on
- 2:02the white blood cells your white blood
- 2:04cells are more concerned with the innate
- 2:07immunity non-specific immunity except
- 2:11the lymphocytes the lymphocytes are
- 2:14concerned with your adaptive acquired
- 2:18specific immunity we have two types of
- 2:20lymphocytes b lymphocytes t lymphocyte
- 2:23please understand that b lymphocytes
- 2:25will become plasma cells when they grow
- 2:28up and when they become plasma cells
- 2:30they will secrete antibodies which are
- 2:33immunoglobulins which are gamma
- 2:36globulins part of your plasma proteins
- 2:39your plasma has proteins albumins the
- 2:42globulins fibrinogen prothrombin and
- 2:44others all your antibodies are gamma
- 2:47globulins here's your lovely plasmid has
- 2:50water it has inorganic substances
- 2:52organic substances and gases we care
- 2:54about this right now your globulins are
- 2:57either alpha 1 alpha 2 beta or gamma
- 3:00your antibodies are here gamma globulin
- 3:03a famous exam question what are these
- 3:05antibodies you have five types igg igm
- 3:09iga igd ige igm is concerned with the
- 3:13first response the first time you saw a
- 3:16specific bacteria is going to trigger an
- 3:19igm response from your body also
- 3:22remember that igm is big contrast that
- 3:25with igg antibodies they are small
- 3:28that's why they can cross the placenta
- 3:30and they are concerned with the
- 3:31secondary response to the bacteria how
- 3:34about iga it's in the mucosa because it
- 3:37leaves the blood and ascends to the
- 3:39mucous membrane such as the mucus in
- 3:42your nose mucous membrane your mouth
- 3:44anal cavity vaginal canal etc ige is ill
- 3:50allergy evil parasites eel anaphylaxis w
- 3:55now let's dig deeper into the difference
- 3:58between innate or non-specific immunity
- 4:00and adaptive or acquired or specific
- 4:03immunity immunity innate and acquired
- 4:07innate you're born with it non-specific
- 4:10less potent present at birth no memory
- 4:13doesn't care whether this is the first
- 4:15encounter or the second encounter with
- 4:18the same organism it responds to four
- 4:20invaders all the same like the acid in
- 4:22your stomach it's just an acid it burns
- 4:24stuff regardless of the nature of the
- 4:27stuff next is the adaptive image the
- 4:29acquire immunity you have to learn it no
- 4:33one is born a soldier no one is born a
- 4:36pilot or a co-pilot for that matter for
- 4:39this you need specificity you have to
- 4:41acquire it you have to learn it how do i
- 4:44learn it from memory from experience
- 4:47experience with what with previous
- 4:49encounter with the same freaking antigen
- 4:53or the same invader it is specific
- 4:55that's why it's more potent develops
- 4:58after birth it takes time and responds
- 5:01differently depending on the invader
- 5:03different organisms require different
- 5:06responses it is very specific the heroes
- 5:10here are your lymphocytes b lymphocytes
- 5:13and t lymphocytes innate immunity is
- 5:16easy let's talk about the adaptive or
- 5:18acquired immunity we have four types
- 5:21naturally acquired passive naturally
- 5:23acquired active artificial passive
- 5:25artificial acts what do you mean by
- 5:27naturally acquired adaptive immunity
- 5:29that happens to be passive basically
- 5:32you're breastfeeding yeah your mother
- 5:34has iga antibodies she's giving you her
- 5:37own antibodies you didn't make them you
- 5:40didn't learn anything these are
- 5:42pre-formed antibodies from the mother
- 5:44you are being passive you didn't do
- 5:47anything and it's also natural you
- 5:50didn't go to the doctor for that it's
- 5:52natural how about natural active aquatic
- 5:54immunity this is where you get infection
- 5:57oh
- 5:58so i'm developing my memory after an
- 6:01encounter with a specific organism
- 6:03that's true in this case you're active
- 6:06you're actually fighting the infection
- 6:08how about artificially acquired well it
- 6:10is your doctor's job could be passive if
- 6:13the doctor gave you an anti-serum which
- 6:15is a serum containing antibody or could
- 6:17be active if the doctor gave you
- 6:19vaccines here's the innate immunity
- 6:22non-specific innate very quick response
- 6:26component mechanical and chemical
- 6:27barriers like the acid in your stomach
- 6:30the epithelium in your nose etc
- 6:32non-specific cell defenses such as
- 6:35neutrophils asynophils macrophages
- 6:37natural killer cells all of these are
- 6:39innate however the lymphocytes are
- 6:42adaptive or acquired the complement the
- 6:45interferons the lysosomes the acute
- 6:48phase reactions all of these are parts
- 6:50of the innate system the complement
- 6:52could be considered as a bridge between
- 6:54the innate immunity and the acquired
- 6:57immunity what are these these are my
- 6:59white blood cells aesinophils
- 7:00neutrophils basophils lymphocytes
- 7:03monocytes these three together are
- 7:05called granulocytes these two are non
- 7:08granulocytes neutrophils are the most
- 7:11abundant
- 7:12followed by lymphocytes what's the
- 7:14function of neutrophils fight against
- 7:16bacteria these are the cells of acute
- 7:18inflammation and pus formation
- 7:21lymphocytes fight against viruses fungi
- 7:24these are the cells of chronic
- 7:26inflammation monocytes are the same as
- 7:29macrophages
- 7:30when they are in the blood they are
- 7:32called monocytes when they are in the
- 7:34tissue they're called macrophages and
- 7:36they eat stuff hashtag phagocytosis
- 7:39eosinophils is for parasites and
- 7:41allergies and eo basophils secrete
- 7:44histamine also energy when they are in
- 7:47the blood they are basophils when they
- 7:49are in the issue they are called mast
- 7:50cells so basically they are the same
- 7:52thing similarly monocytes in the blood
- 7:54are equivalent to macrophages in the
- 7:56tissue equivalent to cup 4 cells in the
- 7:59liver which is equivalent to microglia
- 8:01in your brain what's that that's your
- 8:03antibody who secreted it plasma cell
- 8:06which came from b lymphocytes which came
- 8:09from the bone marrow please memorize the
- 8:12sequence of events don't forget this
- 8:14antibody could be igm iga igg ige or igt
- 8:20ig stand for immunoglobulin of course so
- 8:23b lymphocytes when they mature they can
- 8:25become memory b cell to remember the
- 8:28previous exposure or plasma cell so that
- 8:30they can secrete antibodies which are
- 8:33gamma globulins or immunoglobulins and
- 8:36we have five subtypes complement system
- 8:38why do you call it complement system
- 8:41because it complements the ability of
- 8:43the antibody to perform its function
- 8:45basically we're trying to destroy the
- 8:47bacteria we have three pathways because
- 8:49we have three mechanisms but the end
- 8:51result is the same destruction of the
- 8:54bacteria we have something called mac
- 8:57membrane attack complex and the mac will
- 9:00attack the bacteria also known as the
- 9:03terminal complement complex for example
- 9:06here is the antigen which is the foreign
- 9:08invader and here is the antibody
- 9:11together they make an antigen antibody
- 9:13complex who's going to complement the
- 9:16antibodies job the complement system
- 9:19which always ends up with the mag which
- 9:22will attack the bacteria another example
- 9:25is the alternative pathway of the
- 9:27complement same thing mac which will
- 9:30attack the bacteria for a more detailed
- 9:33discussion i have a video called the
- 9:35complement system and it's available in
- 9:37my physiology playlist what happened
- 9:39after reacting with the compliment
- 9:41agglutination what does that mean get
- 9:43the bacteria close together also you can
- 9:45agglutinate the antigen and the body
- 9:47together and then make the bacteria
- 9:49tasty why did you make it tasty because
- 9:52i'm gonna eat it i'm gonna enjoy myself
- 9:54this is called optimization by a protein
- 9:56known as ups and in then get the
- 9:58neutrophils out of the vessel by
- 10:00chemotaxis and then destroy the bacteria
- 10:03perforated by perforin neutralize the
- 10:06toxins of the virus and release
- 10:08histamine from mast cells all of these
- 10:10things to complement activation it's not
- 10:13just the mac we have other functions
- 10:15while blood cells are your military most
- 10:18of them are innate except lymphocyte
- 10:21which are adaptive as you remember white
- 10:24blood cells are nucleated unlike red
- 10:26blood cells which have no nucleus unlike
- 10:29platelets which are not even cells here
- 10:32is a lovely test tube containing your
- 10:34blood red blood cells are here plasma is
- 10:36here the buffy coat contains white blood
- 10:37cells and platelets acute inflammation
- 10:40oh neutrophils are going to help you
- 10:42have chronic inflammation this is the
- 10:44land of lymphocytes what are the
- 10:46cardinal signs of acute inflammation
- 10:48redness hotness swelling pain loss of
- 10:51function why does this happen because
- 10:53during acute inflammation you vasodilate
- 10:56oh unlike primary hemostasis or blood
- 10:59clotting or you start by evasive
- 11:01constriction oh yeah which makes sense
- 11:03because here i was trying to minimize
- 11:05blood loss so i better vasoconstrict but
- 11:08here i would like the neutrophils to be
- 11:10pushed out of the vessel into the
- 11:12interstitial space to fight bacteria so
- 11:14i better vasodilate and when you
- 11:16vasodilate what you get redness hotness
- 11:19swelling pain loss of function who
- 11:22attracted the neutrophils from within
- 11:24the blood vessel to the interstitial
- 11:26space where the bacteria belongs
- 11:28neutrophil chemotactic factors
- 11:30neutrophils keep rolling rolling rolling
- 11:33marginating diabetes which means false
- 11:36feet they acquire false feet like this
- 11:38and then they move chemotaxis someone
- 11:40attracts them and then they optimize the
- 11:42bacteria make it tasty and then eat it
- 11:45these are the explanations of redness
- 11:48hotness well in pain loss of function
- 11:50the cardinal signs of acute inflammation
- 11:53so today we compare between innate and
- 11:55adaptive immunity in the next video
- 11:58compare between primary lymphoid organs
- 12:00and secondary lymphoid organs why do you
- 12:03call them lymphoid because this is where
- 12:05the lymphocytes live if you like this
