antibodies bind to antigens?
ANSWER: Possible actions include:
 They allow phagocytes to recognize and destroy
antigens.
 They make antigens clump together, causing them to be
destroyed by macrophages.
 They cover the toxic portions of antigens to make them
harmless.
 They activate complements.

Apply Your Knowledge
After you give an immunization to a 2-year-old,
her mother asks you why this will work to
prevent her from getting a disease. What would
you tell her?
ANSWER: Immunization is an artificially acquired
immunity . A person develops this immunity by
being injected with a pathogen and then making
antibodies and memory cells against the
pathogen.

In Summary
28.1
The lymph system is composed of pathways known
as lymph vessels. In addition to the lymph vessels,
the organs of the lymphatic system include lymph
nodes, located throughout the body; the thymus, in
the mediastinum; and the spleen, located in the
LUQ.
28.2
Nonspecific body defenses include species
resistance, mechanical and chemical barriers,
phagocytosis, fever, and inflammation.
Specific defenses are immunities or defenses
against very specific antigens created by B cells, T
cells, and natural killer (NK) cells.

In Summary (cont.)
28.3 Antibodies work in the following ways: phagocytosis,
antigen clumping, covering (inactivating) toxic
portions of antigens, and activating complements.
Antibodies are also known as immunoglobulins.
IgA prevents pathogens from entering the body;
IgD controls B cell activity;
IgE works with IgA in triggering allergic reactions;
IgG recognizes bacteria, viruses, and toxins and
activates complements; and
IgM binds to antigens on food, bacteria, or
incompatible blood cells. IgM also activates
complements.

In Summary (cont.)
28.4
The four types of immune response are naturally
acquired active immunity, such as when someone
becomes ill and develops immunity; artificially
acquired active immunity, as when an injection is
given against a pathogen, preventing illness;
naturally acquired passive immunity, which occurs
when an infant has its mother’s immunity for a short
while after birth and through breast milk; and
artificially acquired passive immunity, which occurs
after injection of antibodies such as with an
antivenom.

In Summary (cont.)
28.5
Diseases and disorders of the immune system
include HIV infection, AIDS, cancer, and allergies,
as well as other autoimmune diseases, in which the
body attacks its own antigens.
The signs, symptoms and treatments are as
numerous and varied as the diseases.
Some of the more common diseases and disorders
are discussed in the Common Diseases and
Disorders of the Immune System section near the
end of this chapter.
