- Lecture involves the following program: 1.Immune system: 2.Cells and organs of the immunity 3.Immune response: antigens, structure, chemical properties, clasification, presentation MHC structure, function, regulation, immunogenetic: genes displacement, polymorphism, genesis of diversity Antibodies: structure, chemical properties, functions, classes of antibodies, isotypes, allotypes, idiotypes Nonspecific immunity: complemet: structure and function, accute phasis reactans, inflammation Phagocytosis: phases, cooperation of the phagocytosis with other components of the immune system 4.The mechanism of the hypersensitivity: 5.Cytokine and immunomodulators: 6.Immunoregulation: 7.Immunology of transplantation 8. Immunity and cancer 9. Immunotoxicology 10. Reactions of the antigens and antibodies

- Syllabus 1.Immune system: 2.Cells and organs of the immunity - ontogenesis, phenotype, structure, function and activacion, signs receptors: 3.Immune response: antigens, structure, chemical properties, clasification, presentation MHC structure, function, regulation, immunogenetic: 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: complemet: structure and function, accute phasis reactans, inflammation Phagocytosis: phases, cooperation of the phagocytosis with other components of the immune system 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. Reactions of the antigens and antibodies
