Challenged with antibiotics, microbes evolve to new forms capable of immunity. Challenged with insecticides, insect pests evolve to become immune. Adaptation of weeds under herbicide pressure also occurs. In each case, entirely new organisms were not created. Rather, there was an adaptation of existing parts, put together in new ways.

The inflammatory (innate) and immune (adaptive) responses have common components. It is possible to have inflammatory responses only with no adaptive immune response. In this situation, both humoral and cellular components that are shared by both types of responses may only participate in the inflammatory response. Table 13 indicates the common components to the inflammatory (innate) and immune (adaptive) responses. Maaophages and dendritic cells are known as professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) responsible for the initiation of the adaptive immune response.

T-cells, representing the adaptive arm of the immune response, also play a critical role in atherogenesis, and enter lesions in response to the chemokines inducible protein-10 (DP-10), monokine induced by DFN-y (MIG), and DFN-inducible T-cell a-chemoattractant (I-TAC), which bind CXCR3 (a chemokine receptor containing two cysteine residues separated by one amino acid), highly expressed by T lymphocytes in the plaque. The... 

Humoral immunity depends on soluble, noncellular effector mechanisms of the immune system. These include defensins and complement components (proteins of the innate immune system) and antibodies (products of the adaptive immune system). They are capable of reacting with foreign substances (e.g., bacteria and viruses) to produce detoxification and elimination.

Parallel to orchestrating acute inflammatory processes by providing an optimal milieu of cytokines, mediators, and adhesion molecules in order to recruit and activate effector cells to the site of infection, dendritic cells also setve as professional antigen-presenting cells for cells of the adaptive immune system ( antigen presentation ... 

Cellular Components of Adaptive Immune Responses are T- and B-Lymphocytes whereas Humoral Components are Antibodies.

NF-kB regulates both innate and adaptive immune responses ( immune defense) [2]. Understanding the function of NF-kB in the development, maintenance, and activation of cells from the immune system (including hematopoietic cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, B and T lymphocytes) has greatly benefited from the analysis of knockout mice in which individual NF-kB family members were defective. 

NF-kB is also crucial for the proper functioning of the adaptive immune system not only by acting on the immune cells themselves but also by participating in the development and organization of the secondary lymphoid organs (lymph nodes, spleen, and Peyer s patches), in which both B and T lymphocytes undergo maturation and activation. NF-kB proteins have an important role in lymphocyte development and...
