Syllabus Immune system: 1.Cells and organs of the immunity - ontogenesis, phenotype, structure, function and activacion, signals receptors: 2.Immune response: antigens, structure, chemical properties, classification, presentation MHC structure, function, regulation, immunogenetics: genes displacement, polymorphism, genesis of diversity Antibodies: structure, chemical properties, functions, classes of antibodies, isotypes, allotypes, idiotypes T-cell receptors: structure, function and antigen binding, interaction of receptors with ligands: adhesive molecules, complement receptors, Fc receptors, transfer of signals Nonspecific immunity: complement: structure and function, accute phasis reactans, inflammation Phagocytosis: phases, cooperation of the phagocytosis with other components of the immune system 3.Model mechanism of immune reaction 4.The mechanism of the hypersensitivity: IgE mediated : early and late response IgG, IgA and IgM : mediated, opsonisation, complement binding Immune complexes: mediated Cells mediated: Others NK cells, killer cells after the lymphokine activation, skin basophile hypersensitivity 5.Cytokine and immunomodulators: cytokine : origin, structure, effect, receptor-place of effect, metabolism, regulation and gene activation inflammation regulators: origin, structure, effect, receptor-place of effect, metabolism and regulation 6.Immunoregulation: Toleration, clonal selection, inhibition, antigenic paralytic intracellular - interaction: help and inhibition (suprese) Idiotype network: inhibition and simulation Mechanism of auto-immunity 7.Immunology of transplantation 8.Immunity and cancer 9.Immunotoxicology 10.Immunomodulation Methods of immune system Literature review
