Immunology: Adaptive Immune System

Module 1 provides an introduction to the innate and adaptive immune systems, focusing on B cell effector functions and tolerance. Gain insights into B cell development, antigen response, and tolerance mechanisms, followed by a practice quiz to reinforce learning.

Module 2 delves into T helper cell subsets, thymic selection, and T cell activation. Explore the functions of different T helper cell subsets and their receptors, and test your understanding with practice quizzes.

Module 3 focuses on cytotoxic killing mechanisms. Understand the process of cytotoxic killing, its significance in immune responses, and reinforce learning through a practice quiz.

Module 4 explores regulatory T cell biology and functions. Gain insights into the role of regulatory T cells in immune regulation, and solidify your understanding through a practice quiz.

Module 5 delves into lymphocyte recirculation and homing. Understand the mechanisms of lymphocyte recirculation and homing to tissues, including diapedesis, and reinforce learning with a practice quiz.

Module 6 examines the impact of age on the function of the immune system. Gain insights into the aging of the immune system and the concept of inflammaging, with a practice quiz to consolidate knowledge.
