Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells
and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.
It is composed mainly of blood leukocytes & tissue cells derived from the leukocytes.
These cells work in 2 ways to prevent disease: i) by actually destroying the invading bacteria
or viruses by phagocytosis and ii) by forming antibodies & sensitized
lymphocytes, one or both of which may destroy or inactivate the invader.
![Page 3: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Leukocytes: mobile units of body’s immune system.
Leukocytes primarily function as defense agents outside the blood, to carry out their function, leukocytes use “seek out & attack” strategy. (i.e. they go to sites of invasion or tissue damage.)
Leukocytes are formed partially in the bone marrow & in the lymphoid tissue.
The main reason WBCs are present in blood is to rapidly transported from their sites of production or storage to wherever they are needed: areas of serious infection & inflammation. Thus Providing rapid and potent defense.
![Page 4: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Unlike erythrocytes, (which are of uniform structure, identical function, & constant no.) leukocytes vary in structure, function & no.
According to staining properties of WBCs, WBCs are divided into
Leukocytes in peripheral blood (WBC) (4,0 – 10,0 x109/l)
GranulocytesPolymorphnuclear
AgranulocytesUnlobed nucleus
Neutrophil Eosinophil Basophil Lymphocyte Monocyte 40-70% 2-7% 0-1% 20-40% 2-10%
B, T, NK cell

-penias & -philias IE.g neutropenia or neutrophoilia, lymphopenia or
lymphocytosis, monocytosis, etc. refer to ABSOLUTE COUNTS (NUMBERS) from the
differantial lekocyte count: Neutropenia: ANC < 1,6 x 109/l Neutrophilia: ANC > 7,0 x 109/l Lymphocytosis: Ly > 4,0 x 109/l, etc. Relative -penias or -philias: relative (%) decrease or increase in differential
leukogram in the absence of change in absolute number.
![Page 7: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
(-penias) & -philias II1. Reactive. Refer to changes in blood counts
as reponse to various attacks, mostly inflammatory reaction.
2. Malignant (clonal, primary) refer to changes reflecting clonal (= malignant) haematology diseases (leukemia, etc.)
3. Idiopathic: etiology and pathphysiology not known, underlying reactive or malignant ciondition ruled out
4. Congenital (inherited). Rare but exist.
![Page 8: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Normal count of WBC in PB: : 4,0 – 10,0 x109/l
1.Marrow pool: 90% neutrophils2.Blood pool: 3% 3.Tissue pool: 7%
LeukopoiesisIn bone marrow → PHSC (Pluripotential
hemopoietic stem cells) differentiates → committed stem cells → CFU-GM Granulocytes & monocytes are formed only in
bone marrow, Lymphocytes are produced in MB + in various
lymphoid tissues (thymus, lymphnodes, splen, etc)
WBCs formed in the bone marrow are stored in the marrow & lymphocytes are stored in lymphoid tissue & small no. circulate in the blood.
Mucosas etc.

Genesis of WBCs , distinguised by morphology
Row [a] represents the myelocytes showing neutrophilic, basophilic and eosinophilic from left to right. Row [b] represents the metamyelocyte cells again starting with neutrophilic on the left.
![Page 10: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Life span of WBCs
Granulocytes: after released from bone marrow, 4-8 hours
circulate in blood & another 4-5 days in the tissues. Survive only for few hours in serious infection
Monocytes: 10-20 hrs in blood.Once in tissue they get much larger size to
become tissue macrophage → life span month(s)
Lymphocytes: Life span for week or years depending on
body’s need.They continually circulate in blood & move
from blood to tissues & from tissues to blood and again blood to tissues.
![Page 11: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Neutrophils: Size:10-14 µm in diam. Nucleus:
1. Multilobed (1-6 lobes) therefore called polymorphnuclear leucocytes.
2. Young cell have single horse shoe shaped nucleus.
3. As the cells grow older nucleus becomes multilobed. Lobes are connected with one another by chromatin threads.
4. Arneth count: More the no. of lobes, the more mature is the neutrophil. More the no. of mature cells, Arneth count shifts to right (Vit. B12 or folate deficiency). More the younger cells → shift to left (infection).
![Page 12: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cytoplasm: contains neutrally stained granules2 types of granules are present 1. Primary/ lysosomal granules: less in no. containing acid hydrolases, which can digest
bacteria. After a bacterium is phagocytosed by the neutrophil, primary granules release their enzymes which remain within the neutrophil & kill the bacterium, thus no harm to innocent cells. In addition, primary granules also contain powerful broad spectrum antimicrobial polypeptide defensin
2. Secondary granules: more numerous. Contain
i. Lactoferin, ii. Vit B12 binding protein & iii. Components of enzyme system that produce
free radicals like H2O2, which kills the microbes.
iv. Substances that facilitates chemotaxis.3. Toxic granules: During infection toxic coarse
granules are seen.
![Page 13: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Neutrophil function
1.Phagocytosis: 1st line of defence, ingest & destroy a bacteria.
2.Pyrogens & inflammatory cytokines: endogenous pyrogen which is an important mediator of febrile response to bacteria + other regulation and inflam. defense reaction
![Page 14: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Leukemoid reaction, etc.Non malignant excesive increase in leukocytes (in most cases
neutrophils) in reaction to mostly inflammatory noxas.WBC can increase up to 40-60 x 109/l , if neutrophilia
significant left shift in differential is apparent.
In most cases: sepsis (diffuse peritonitis, acute cholecystitis, acute pyelonephritis, etc.)
WBC (ANC) 26 x 109/l: might be bening (leukemoid reaction)WBC (ANC) 106 x 109/l: cannot be bening

Size:10-14 µm in diam. (2%)
Nucleus:1. Usually (85%) cells
‘bilobed’.2. Remaining 15% cells
have trilobed nucleus. Cytoplasm: 1. Acidophilic, appears light pink in colour after
staining 2. Granular Granules1. Coarse, stain bright brick red with acidic (eosin)
dye.
2. Granules do not cover the nucleus.
3. They contain very high peroxidase content (histaminase), lysozymes & Major Basic Protein (MBP)
![Page 22: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Functions:1.Mild phagocytosis: because less mo bile than neutrophils 2.Eosinophils collect at the sitesof allergic reactions & detoxifyInflammation inducing substances by degrading
the mediators (e.g. histamine, bradikinin)3.They enter the tissues & are specially
abundant in the mucosa of respiratory tracts, GIT, urinary tract, where they provide mucosal immunity
4.Eosinophils attack parasites that are too large to be engulfed by phagocytosis. Eosinophil granules release chemicals (peroxidase) which are toxic to larvae of parasites
![Page 23: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Variation in count:Eosinophilia: ↑ in eosinophils
Causes are:- 1)Allergic conditions e.g. bronchial asthma, hay fever, filariasis 2)
Parasitic infestation, trichinosis & schistosomiasis e.g. worms (hookworm, roundworm & tapeworm), 3) Skin disease like utricaria.
4. Malignant diseases: Myeloprolipherative diseases (esp: Eosinophilic leukemia, Systemic mastocytoisis), Hypereosinophilic syndrome, etc.
5. Connective tissue diseases: SLE, etc.
Eosinopenia: ↓ in eosinophils Causes are:- 1) ACTH & steroid therapy, 2)

basophils:Size:8-10 µm in diam.Nucleus:
1. irregular bilobed, often ‘S’shaped & its boundary is not clear because of overcrowding with coarse granules.
Cytoplasm:1. Is slightly basophilic & appear blue, it is
full of granules.Granules:1. Contain heparin, histamine & 5HT.
![Page 25: Introduction Immune system is very complex system of cells and tissues with complicated interactions in order to recognize own and foreign structure.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d305503460f94a080dd/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Functions: 1. Mild phagocytosis2. Role in allergic reaction: Basophils release histamine, bradykinin, no. of lysosomal enzymes, slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis (SRS-A) & serotonin (5HT). These substances cause local
vascular & tissue reactions that cause many allergic manifestations.
3. Liberates heparin which i. Acts as anticoagulant & keeps blood in fluid
state.ii. Activates the enzyme lipoprotein lipase:
removes fat particles from the blood after fatty meal.

lymph nodes that are tendertender are more likely to be due to an infectious process,
whereas painlesspainless adenopathy raises the concern of malignancy.
Lymph node consistencyconsistency
lymph nodes containing metastatic carcinoma are rock hard,
lymph nodes containing lymphoma are firm and rubbery,
lymph nodes enlarged in response to an infectious process are soft.
The largerlarger the lymph node, the more likely a serious underlying cause exists, and lymph nodes greater than 3 to 4 cm in diameter in an adult are very concerning
