12 wrz 2018 · Beyond structural and chemical barriers to pathogens, the immune system has two fundamental lines of defense: innate immunity and adaptive immunity. Innate immunity is the first immunological mechanism for fighting against an intruding pathogen.
Here, the authors describe how the outcome is influenced by virus properties, the circumstances of infection and host factors, such as immune regulatory mechanisms and genetic susceptibility....
4 lip 2023 · This chapter provides an introduction to the main components and functions of the immune system and its role in both health and disease. It deals with concepts of innate and adaptive immunities, the role of T and B cells and antigen-presenting cells, and antibody-mediated and cell-mediated immunities.
2 maj 2024 · We describe the contribution of innate and adaptive immune cells, inflammatory modulators and antibodies to influenza virus-specific immunity, inflammation and immunopathology.

Antibody-mediated vs. cell-mediated immunity. Antibody-mediated immunity is the branch of the acquired immune system that is mediated by B-cell antibody production. The antibody-production pathway begins when the B cell’s antigen-binding receptor recognizes and binds to antigen in its native form.
Scientists continue to develop new methodologies, such as high-throughput immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in vivo imaging techniques, which exploit antibody–antigen binding, to more accurately answer complex research questions involving single cells up to whole organ systems.
