Pathogens, immunity against

Gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) Lymphoid tissue, including Peyer s patches, found in the gut that is important for providing localized immunity against pathogens. [Pg.1567]

Plants are continually exposed to a vast array of potential phytopathogenic fungi nevertheless, plants resist to most of them by blocking fungal development soon after penetration. Resistance against pathogens can be distinguished in resistance at the species level (non-host resistance) and resistance at the cultivar level (race-cultivar resistance). Plants lack a circulatory system and antibodies and have evolved a defense mechanism that is distinct from the vertebrate immune... [Pg.191]

O Vaccines provide active immunity against viral and bacterial pathogens. [Pg.1239]

Superoxide (02 ) is a naturally occurring radical and is associated with both the immune response against pathogens and at the same time the development of certain diseases. [Pg.366]

There is a great deal of evidence that AmB can exert a number of effects directly on cells of the immune system, and particularly on macrophages to increase nonspecific defense mechanisms against pathogens and cancer cells. These mechanisms include the production of nitric oxide (NO) (32) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-a) (33), which could contribute to the antifungal and antiparasitic activity of AmB. However, excess TNF-a production could also be responsible for some of the side effects associated with AmB treatment, such as fever and chills. [Pg.106]

Immunization of mice with lipopeptide antigens encapsulated in novel liposomes prepared from the polar lipids of various Archaeobacteria elicits rapid and prolonged specific protective immunity against infection with the facultative intracellular pathogen.
