immunity
• from immunis, Latin for "exempt“
• capability of the body to resist harmful
microbes from entering it
• Immunity involves both specific and nonspecific components
immunity
Innate vs. adaptive immunity
Innate immune system
Adaptive immune system
non-specific response
pathogen and antigen specific response
highly conserved pattern
recognition receptors (PRRs)
immediate maximal response
(hours)
highly specialized, variable receptors
lag time between exposure and maximal
response (days)
cell-mediated and humoral
components
no immunological memory
cell-mediated and humoral components
found in nearly all forms of life
found only in jawed vertebrates
immunological memory
Adaptive immune response
Innate and adaptive immunity
Innate
• skin/mucosal tissues
• Complement System
• Antimicrobial Peptides

Macrophages – frontline of innate immune
defense
J Clin Invest. 2002;110(11):1603-1605. doi:10.1172/JCI17302
Macrophages
• Named by Elie Metchnikoff : „microorganims can be engulfed
and digested by phagocytic cells“
• Progenitor in the blood: monocytes
– Different in the lung: self renewal, proliferation
• Resident in tissue
– Alveoli  alveolar macrophages
– interstitium
• Relatively long-lived (ca. 40% in 1 year)
• Frontline/first line of antigen recognition and defense !
Macrophages - scavengers
© Dr Dennis Kunkel
• Professional phagocytes:
 engulf and kill invading pathogens (microorganism, particles)
 cell debris and infected cells
 distinguish between „dangerous“ and „harmless“ antigens
• Equipped with pattern recognition receptors and can rapidly produce
proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines

Depletion of alveolar macrophages
impairs neutrophil emigration after LPS
impaired neutrophil evasion after alveolar macrophage depletion (open
bars) in response to intratracheal LPS stimulation
Maus et al., AJP Lung 2002
Recruitment of immune cells by macrophages
Monocytes
• 5-8 %
• many lysosomes
• Differentiate into lung DC and Macrophages
lung M
PBMo
lung DC
Recruitment of monocytes
Granulocytes/polymorphonuclear leukocytes
• Cytoplasmic granules
• Irregularly shaped nuclei
• Short lived
Neutrophils (PMN)
• The main effector of innate immunity (55-70%)
• Phagocytes
• Kills the pathogens mainly by ROS and enzymes (e.g., neutrophil
elastase)
• 2 types of vesicles:
1) lysosomal enzymes
2) collagenase and lactoferrin (toxic)
• Become apoptotic after some hours to days or after phagocytosis
of pathogen
Leukocyte emigration to the lung:
Adhesion molecules
Neutrophils-NETosis
• Release of granule proteins and chromatin  extracellular fibers
bind gram-pos. and –neg. bacteria
• NETs: neutrophil extracellular traps
 degradation of virulence factors, kill bacteria

Neutrophils-NETosis

B) active neutrophils
E) extracellular NETs
Bacteria trapped in NETs
A) Staphylococcus aureus
B) Salmonella typhimurium
Young et al. PlosONE 2011
• 2-5% of leukocytes
• Granules: enzymes & toxic proteins
• Important for defense against parasites
• MBP: major basic protein
• Attack surfaces that are marked with IgE (cells
or parasites)
• Involved in allergic inflammatory reactions
• Also important role in attacking the mucosa
and the airway epithelium in asthma

Basophils
• Less than 1% of Leukocytes
• Contain histamine and heparin
• Proteolytic enzymes
• Fast immune reaction; external antigens (asthma, hay fever)
Mast cells
• only in tissue and mucosa
• bind IgE on their surface
• degranulate among antigen contact and release histamin,
leukotrienes etc. from their granulas
• main cells which confer acute allergic symptoms (swelling,
bronchial obstruction) in acute asthma etc.

Activation
Release of:
histamine, leukotrienes, proteoglycans
cytokines (IL-1,2,3,4,5, TNF-α, GMCSF)

Dendritic cells (DC)
• Myeloid and lymphoid progenitors (small subpopulation); lat. dendriticus =
branched (verzweigt)
• Key cells: link innate with adaptive immunity
• Immature DCs: phagocytic - enter tissue & mature after pathogen encountering
Lambrecht & Hammad, 2003
Dendritic cells
Main function: Antigen presenting cell (APC)
Lambrecht & Hammad, 2003
Dendritic cells
• Secondary immune response:
Lambrecht & Hammad, 2003
Dendritic cells
• Mature DCs shape t-cell response
(Hammad & Lambrecht, J Allergy Clin Immunol
2006) :
• Which type of t-cells is activated?
• Different Ils or different
concentrations
• Defines tolerance vs. Immunity
• Immature DCs cannot activate
naive T cells.

Cross presentation of soluble antigen on MHC class I
Mainly in dendritic cells => activation and recruitment of CD8+ T cells
Interaction of MHC- molecules with T-cell receptors
Small T-cell subpopulation: γδ-TCR => much less variable repertoire: 103 vs. 1015 (αβ)
Interaction of MHC- molecules with T-cell receptors
Signals required for activation:
1. Antigen-specific binding TCR-MHC
2. Co-stimulatory molecules (e.g. CD28 interaction with CD80/CD86 (B7)
or ICOS with ICOS-L)
3. Cytokines (IL-4, -15, -12 or TGF-ß)
