Immunological reactions [ ANTIGEN-ANTIBODY Reactions]
• Any substance which introduced parenterally into the body, stimulates the production of an antibody with which it reacts specifically and in an observable manner

Antigen
Epitope or Antigenic determinant:
The smallest unit of antigenicity is known as epitope
Smallest area 4-5 amino acids or monosaccharide residuesSpecific chemical structure, charge and configurationAntibodies are specific for epitopes

• Antigenic stimulus• Only T-cell dependant antigens lead to CMI• T-cell bears specific receptor on its surface• T cells recognize antigens only when
presented with MHC molecules• Helper T-cells• Cytotoxic T-cells

Cytokines • Peptide mediators or intracellular messengers
which regulate immunological, inflammatory and reparative host responses
• They are potent hormone like substances
• Produced by lymphocytes, macrophages, platelets & fibroblasts

• Stimulates the growth & differentiation of pleuripotent stem cells in the bone marrow
• Responsible for adjusting the rate of production of blood cells
• Treating hematopoietic dysfunctions in infections & malignancies
Colony stimulating factors

• Induce hemorrhagic necrosis in certain tumours
• 2 types: TNFα and TNFβ• Cachectin is TNFα
Tumour necrosis factors
