00:01 Alright then we have uh these non multicellular parasites are just kind of throw

00:08 along a category here. And what talking about are things like worms.

00:13 There are lots of different types of that are trying to live in your

00:15 . What they do is they find way into you in different ways.

00:19 not going to go through all the ones. These are just examples of

00:22 . And what they do is they things that are in your body.

00:26 not actually consuming you, they're consuming things that you produce. All

00:31 Um And so tapeworms isn't is an of one of the digestive system.

00:36 just consuming nutrients inside you um inside digestive tract, but basically it's actually

00:42 allowing you to take those nutrients So basically you are fighting for the

00:47 that you actually consumed flukes are found the blood and in the liver,

00:53 are gonna be digested as well. , sorry, pin worms are hookworms

00:59 , I can't remember. So but , these are organisms that are going

01:03 live on you. And then finally we're just gonna include these. There's

01:07 a lot of them. Um This a weird one. These are our

01:11 proteins and they're not living in any shape or form. They're just infectious

01:15 . Um And you're familiar with them you've heard of mad cow disease,

01:19 ? So prion are these infectious proteins are capable of causing you great

01:25 Um And they spread through the consumption infected meat. Now, the most

01:30 was the mad cow disease, bovine encephalopathy, but this isn't the only

01:35 if you hunt deer and you eat know contaminated deer meat, you know

01:42 can get a form of this type infection. There are Priam's that do

01:47 dear. I'm not trying to say eat deer meat, it's just you

01:51 , there's a way to deal with . Don't don't eat the brains of

01:53 deer for example, that's bad, ? Um But again this is just

01:59 else that's out there to get And so having said all that,

02:03 makes it pretty scary to move doesn't it? Right? I mean

02:09 everywhere you go everywhere you look, mean right now it's cold and flu

02:14 right? Everyone is sick. Everyone know that I'll walk to the route

02:17 they all feel sick because they got colds or the flu or the covid's

02:23 , there's all sorts of stuff out every time you touch something, you're

02:27 picking something up, but you've been to prevent those things from causing you

02:37 . Alright, your system has already up within it, an immune response

02:44 fight off anything that is trying to into your body and then once it

02:48 get in your body it has a to fight off that stuff that's gotten

02:52 your body Alright, so this is the way that your body resist

02:57 You probably sit there but dr We have diseases. Why I

03:01 it doesn't work perfectly. No, doesn't work perfectly right. But just

03:08 any sort of system, it's a a very very strong system. It

03:13 does a lot more than you give credit for. And I want you

03:17 be encouraged by that. All So, first off, what it

03:21 have is we're gonna be dealing with cells. All right. We're gonna

03:24 dealing with plasma proteins that are gonna looking for stuff and we're gonna be

03:28 with signaling molecules that are gonna tell cells how to behave in in light

03:34 infection. All right, now, are two basic parts to this and

03:39 going to focus on the first part . Alright. So, these two

03:43 , these two different approaches are working to coordinate how to fight disease and

03:49 . All right. So, the line is what is referred to as

03:52 innate immune system. Alright, really what this is is that these

03:57 non specific ways to treat or to threats that are coming at you.

04:04 right. So, for example, body is looking at and going,

04:09 , there's a pathogen here. Um a bacteria and I have a way

04:14 go after bacteria, but I don't which bacteria is I don't care how

04:19 bacteria got in my body. I'm gonna attack whatever this is.

04:23 that would be an example of an the second part and this is very

04:27 fast. Alright so typically this is get a very very quick response when

04:32 occurs. So for example if you to scratch yourself for example you'll see

04:37 Alright um if you've been out um uh you know you get you get

04:43 quick effect, I mean if you infected you'll notice a fever just kind

04:46 pops up really really quickly, It's not this is not something that's

04:50 three weeks to show up, It's like oh I feel sick now

04:54 the innate immune system basically ramping itself to attack whatever is attacking you.

05:01 second part is a very specific type attack. Alright, it's basically a

05:06 immune response to a very specific Alright, very specific pathogen is really

05:13 I should be saying here. So is a much more slow response because

05:16 have to tailor it. But what's about this is that it says,

05:21 I've been exposed to this so this be something in my environment so I

05:26 create a a specific response so that I've ever exposed ever again, I

05:32 a way to attack this much more and much more quickly. That's the

05:36 one. Alright. A little bit but it's really cool. So the

05:41 is like like right now you have bubble around you that basically says bring

05:45 , I can take it on and really kind of what we're looking at

05:49 . We're gonna talk through those different . We're gonna look at the plasma

05:52 . We're gonna look at the immune and we're gonna look at some of

05:55 systems that take place in the innate . All right. And so with

05:59 to the immune cells of the immune , we have a bunch of different

06:02 . Talk about the Lucas sides. already seen all these were introduced them

06:06 we're gonna kind of dive in a bit deeper. So we're talking about

06:09 granule site. So that's the The basic skills of the Hills.

06:13 mono sites. Right. The Montecito the ones that become the macrophages.

06:17 we're gonna talk about lymphocytes and we're keep it simple. We're gonna talk

06:20 T cells and B cells and I've in another one here, the natural

06:24 cell because it's one it's it's interesting important but to it sounds really

06:28 I mean you have a name like killer. Come on. Right.

06:34 where do we find these? All now most of your Lucas sites there

06:38 some in circulation but most of them not in circulation. We already learned

06:42 they're kind of located there sitting waiting be alerted. They are surveilling,

06:48 have been made and they are watching points of entry for those things that

06:54 cause problems. Alright. So they in what type of structure? We

07:00 to meet on Tuesday secondary is the . We're looking for lymphatic structures.

07:09 , So that's where they are. right. So they're found in lymphatic

07:13 . So, what we're looking at , we're talking about T cells and

07:16 cells and macrophages, natural kill Are there in that secondary lymphatic

07:21 So, we're talking about your lymph . Were talking about your spleen,

07:25 about your tonsils. These are where hanging out because this is where we're

07:30 going to be exposed to a First on then there's some other

07:35 All right. So, we're going find them in some very specific locations

07:39 where it's most likely to be exposed something that's pathogenic. Alright,

07:45 we will have organisms that reside in skin or these organisms. These immune

07:51 that reside in the skin because that's barrier. This is where things are

07:55 going to find their way in. gonna find them in the mucosa.

07:58 gonna find them in places that are to the external environment. Now,

08:04 often what you'll see is like with , they are gonna either reside there

08:08 when they reside or permanently We call fixed or residents. All right.

08:13 then the other ones are migrating. are kind of like cops on the

08:17 . Right. These are the these the police cars that are driving through

08:20 looking for trouble? All right. where do they drive? Do they

08:24 through the best neighborhoods where nothing ever ? Do cop cars do that?

08:29 . Where do they go where problems occur? And so what they're doing

08:34 they're traveling around and they're kind of and saying, is there anything in

08:37 area that I need to be concerned ? No. Okay. I'm gonna

08:40 ahead and move to the next Is there anything I need to be

08:43 about? And that's what these macrophages doing. They're wandering around the body

08:47 the body looking for trouble. All . And if they don't see

08:52 just keep moving. All right. , we have two different types here

08:56 regard to the organ systems. All . So I mentioned we have them

09:00 the epithelium now in the epithelium. , it's not just select organs in

09:06 epithelium. We have a specific type macrophage that resides there. Alright.

09:10 is called a dendritic cell. All . And we see a little picture

09:14 it that you can see why it's . It has a little dendrites

09:17 Now, it's a macrophages. A of fixed macrophage and this can be

09:22 both in the skin and mucosa because is one of the points where you're

09:28 most likely get invasion. In other , you put them on the

09:32 Alright again, think of a right? You have to defend the

09:37 where you're gonna put your soldiers you're put them inside hanging out in the

09:42 , are you going to put them the wall? Watch him on the

09:47 . And that's what we're doing. dendritic cells are sitting there on the

09:51 watching and when they come across the that activates the dendritic cells, it

09:56 up whatever the pathogen consumes it and it produces little tiny particles and then

10:03 goes off and take to the immune and says, hey check it

10:08 This thing was trying to get into body. Do you recognize this?

10:11 it alerts the immune system to kind say hey this is something we need

10:15 go after and it's basically alerting the immune response for a later attack.

10:23 we have connective tissue. We have type of cell called a mast cell

10:28 is very similar to a bazaar All right. So it's kind of

10:32 the granule site. All right. it's a unique type. And what

10:35 mast cell does is it hangs out basically looks for those things which it

10:41 attack. Alright, so just like macrophage, it's kind of watching for

10:46 because when it gets alerted, what gonna do is it's gonna alert other

10:49 of immune cells to come in and . What's going on? So this

10:53 primarily found in connective tissue and in the places where you'd expect it to

10:57 where you're exposed to the external And so one of the things I'd

11:02 you to think about as you're going this is think about all the different

11:06 that are in your body. I'm not trying to do this in

11:09 perverse way. We're talking about like ears, your pores in your

11:13 your little glands that sit on the of your body. Each of these

11:17 a pathway as an entry point for to get into you, right

11:23 It's an entry point. So we to defend all that. And that's

11:27 we have this innate immune system. , the second thing, so we

11:32 the cells, the second thing we're deal with. We're gonna be dealing

11:36 these signaling molecules. All right. , you probably heard at the very

11:40 of covid that uh one of the that a covid infection caused was called

11:45 cytokine storm. It sounds like really , doesn't it? Cytokine storm.

11:51 like a hurricane in the body. ? And what a sight of kind

11:55 is it's a signaling molecule and your is a little bit different. I

11:58 this was a little bit clear. I put it on this morning,

12:02 cytokine is simply a signaling molecule for immune system. Alright. And there's

12:07 types and what they basically do is regulate and facilitate how the cells are

12:12 to respond and when they're supposed to . And there's a whole bunch of

12:15 of which you do not need to right? You can see all here

12:18 all have numbers. Can you imagine fun it is to memorize all that

12:22 immunologist do this. Alright. My I told you I'm a reproductive

12:27 But the lab that I was trained was in the department of immunology.

12:31 lab was a weird lab. We we were the only ones that didn't

12:35 immunology in this whole department of So we'd go to talks and this

12:39 the type of stuff I'd have to all day long. It's just that

12:44 I. L. To the L. Six that I.

12:47 10. You know it's interesting but wasn't what I was interested in.

12:53 right now, what they do is basically are going to regulate all how

12:57 different cells are activated immune response. you can use these cytokines to activate

13:03 cell to kill something else and you use these side of kinds as a

13:07 to kill other things. You can alert a cell that has been infected

13:10 say you need to go die. the cell goes okay sure. And

13:14 goes and kills itself. All And there are different types. All

13:18 . So the way this works basically gonna be released by a cell.

13:21 this is what all these little arrows trying to show you saying these chemicals

13:24 gonna be really spice l and then target cell has to have the right

13:28 in order to respond to that particular . So cytokines just don't go to

13:33 cell. The cell has to have specific receptor to respond to it.

13:39 . And who we talked to and don't think this one shows it.

13:43 yeah, there we go. It be auto Quran. You see here

13:47 NFL is releasing this particular interleukin L. Five and basically says turn

13:53 on or do this or do So you can auto cringe, you

13:57 talk to nearby cells that would be Quran or you can send it off

14:02 the far reaches which would be endocrine its nature. So these signals are

14:07 how the immune system activates itself and itself and facilitates the response that you're

14:13 be getting. Alright because these are dangerous chemicals right? Remember I said

14:21 storm, what the viruses were doing causing these immune cells to go haywire

14:26 they're releasing way too much cytokine because was the regulatory mechanisms weren't working appropriately

14:33 response to covid and that's where all danger was coming from. Because remember

14:38 act as a weapon, right? that's where all the problems were.

14:43 what you wanna do is you don't this stuff to be around for any

14:46 period of time, You just want to be a quick message. Here's

14:49 message hand, The message off, gone, It's done is destroyed.

14:53 there are four basic families. You have to know all of them.

14:56 know the families we have the inter . The inter Lukens. Usually the

15:00 they have the I. L. they do is their regulators. They

15:03 ways that immune cells talk to other cells to tell them what to

15:06 Right? So enter in between Lucan is leukocyte and the I.

15:12 And the protein. So that's where name comes from. Alright, we

15:16 tumor necrosis factor which is another one those fun names. Right? Sounds

15:20 a heavy metal band. We are factor. No one like that.

15:28 you go see tumor necrosis factor? would no. Okay, tell you

15:35 it does, tumors. It kills . Alright, tumors are basically cells

15:42 your body that have gone haywire that body doesn't want around. So we

15:45 TNF that are there to say, you're behaving inappropriately. I'm gonna go

15:50 and tell you to go ahead and in a fire and it still says

15:52 sir right away and it goes and in the fire. Wait a second

15:55 Wayne. But we get tumors. do you think tumors exist? Because

16:00 stop responding to the tumor necrosis Right. In other words, the

16:06 that are regulating to tell them to stick around. They're ignoring the

16:11 We have colony stimulating factors which isn't on here. But basically it tells

16:15 when to ramp up a specific population cells and then finally the fun ones

16:22 for the name like interferon, What you think it does interferes and that

16:27 just easy. Why do I like on so much? Because this is

16:32 chemical that destroys viral infected cells. notice when you get the flu that

16:39 get a key like it's like your body aches, you feel like your

16:44 is kind of even kind of tingly all you wanna do is get a

16:47 , wrap yourself up. That feeling shakiness is a function of the interferon

16:53 been released into your body is basically cell or signal is saying uh everybody

16:59 have a virus in the body. So uh if you have the virus

17:02 ahead and die and the rest of that don't have the virus um Be

17:06 that the virus is gonna try to you. And so they all put

17:08 their defenses. All the cells put their defenses and that baking is is

17:12 function of that. That response. cool. All right. So those

17:20 our chemicals. Alright. So what innate immunity basically it is what you

17:26 born with innate meaning it is always . You've always had it and it

17:31 against just about everything. It's a non specific type of defense system.

17:38 . Your home is protected from right? Can things get into your

17:44 , squirrels, raccoons, small bears, large birds, dinosaurs,

17:56 . You notice your house is You have innate defense. Now,

18:02 things break into your house? Right. But then we have ways

18:07 deal with that wants to get But that would be kind of an

18:10 of what we're saying. All So, we're talking about structures,

18:14 ? So things that prevent entry and that prevents. So, we're talking

18:19 the skin and the mucosa, for , are a line of defense.

18:24 fact that you have skin is something prevents the outside world from getting into

18:28 inside world. All right. And what we're gonna do is we're gonna

18:32 in a non specific way if something to break past that barrier, we're

18:37 deal with it. So, this our second line of defense.

18:41 So let's say you get squirrels that into your house. What are you

18:44 do? Do you have a way defend against the squirrels? I

18:48 we can be really silly tennis right? Golf clubs, shotguns,

18:57 and matches are all those good defense . Well, maybe not the gasoline

19:03 , but you see not specific because can use a golf club against the

19:06 as well as a squirrel. It'll have the same effect. Lots

19:11 pain and telling that organism stay out my house. Okay. So what

19:17 say is there's a cellular chemical and cellular we're talking about the activation of

19:22 of the cells neutrophils. Macrovision, killer cells, chemical this is what

19:26 talking about interference and a process called . This is a bunch of chemicals

19:31 we're gonna look at that work And then finally physiological inflammation and

19:37 So, when you're dealing with the immune system, these are what we're

19:41 with. This is the first line the second line that comes up and

19:45 with this. So how do we entry? What is our first line

19:49 defense? Well, let's think of skin. The epidermis itself heavily

19:54 Ized. Alright. For those of took A and P. One,

19:57 know what those terms mean? Right like? Of course I do.

20:01 . It was like the very first I learned at the very first semester

20:04 thought this stuff it's gone out your and I know that most of you

20:07 remember this. All right. But we're talking about, we're talking about

20:11 layers of cells that have very, thick, dense protective proteins that are

20:15 there that serves as a barrier between outside world and the inside of your

20:19 . Alright, this barrier is almost . It's not completely impervious, but

20:26 impervious to a whole bunch of different of insults. Physical insult. Chemical

20:31 and organisms insult or biological insult. . So what we can say is

20:36 our skin is tough. I can there and I can scrape at it

20:39 scrape at it and scrape at it nothing's getting in right now in a

20:44 of minutes, you're gonna see there's be a little bit of red

20:47 right? And that's gonna be a of the downstream immune response.

20:53 But you saw I can't cut my with something as simple as a

20:56 Now. Now I can get something lot sharper and I can cut through

20:59 . But notice it takes more than like, oh, let me just

21:03 of rub up against the wall and what happens. Your skin is not

21:07 fall off me. Chemical. I've about this in A and P.

21:10 . I was stupid in the chemistry . I poured stuff all of myself

21:14 myself all the time and whenever report on yourself in the chemistry lab

21:19 So, if you like, acid acid, No. Yeah. So

21:25 following the safety procedures that they've laid for you. Good. Yeah,

21:31 don't care. We were like, see what happens if we do

21:35 Actually. I went home one day knowing I poured sulfuric acid on

21:38 favorite shirt, went home, threw the laundry sulfuric acid activates in the

21:44 of water and basically a big giant in my shirt. I was so

21:49 . Like swiss cheese and I didn't until after I took it out of

21:52 laundry. All right. But if pull put those types of chemicals on

21:57 skin it's it might burn you. feel it but it's not necessarily going

22:02 work its way through. All So chemical and the biological, you

22:09 have organisms living on you if you know this. And so it actually

22:14 your skin is producing chemicals that help prevent the pathological organisms from breaking

22:20 And you're also impervious to them kind working their way and you actually have

22:23 break through the skin in order for to get through. All right.

22:28 the idea here is it is very impervious to a whole bunch of different

22:32 . And then on top of that can trap things to like in your

22:36 you have structures that allow you to materials so that the immune system goes

22:41 , I can deal with this since isolated and put it in a specific

22:46 . And then lastly, what we is we have a whole bunch of

22:50 substances that our body secretes onto the , whether it be on the surface

22:54 our skin, on the surface of eyes, in the mucosa of our

22:58 . And those things help to prevent things from breaking through. So for

23:02 we have something called immunoglobulin A. . G. A. It's an

23:06 . We're gonna talk more about immunoglobulins Tuesday. But in essence what this

23:12 is it basically binds to its an that binds to a microorganism and puts

23:17 big giant flag and says hey um system come get this and the immune

23:23 will we have things like a I'm license. I'm is the most

23:27 chemical that our body produces in my because what it does is it binds

23:32 to bacteria and punches big giant holes them and kills them in a very

23:38 specific way. Alright. We have since we have german citizens and the

23:45 , they even tell you what they . Derm aside I mean it just

23:49 like something you'd go to home depot buy to kill things right? Things

23:54 the skin to kill term aside. ? See Bama. You know every

24:01 I said this in A. And . One. You're gonna remember this

24:03 . Remember I said every one of guys showers regularly. I said that's

24:07 for you. You remember me saying yeah I'm not saying don't shower but

24:13 please shower right? You gross. ? But the secretions that our body

24:19 to see them that makes our face and our hair oily those contain within

24:25 chemicals that kill off bacteria. And really interesting if you go for a

24:31 of days without bathing. So like example if you go camping for a

24:34 of days you might stink but after while you'll notice that you stop stinking

24:38 all the bacteria in your body have to eat. And they're being killed

24:41 the stuff that your body secreted on surface. All right. Because your

24:46 odor, she's looking at me like the most gross thing I've ever heard

24:49 . Your body odor doesn't come from . It comes from the bacteria living

24:52 you. Right? And if you're it all off, you ain't gonna

24:59 now again, please shower. All . It's better for you to shower

25:05 not to shower. But your body produces chemicals that are there to kill

25:11 within your body and on the surface your body you have bacteria living

25:15 Told you you have a microcosm of cells that are bacterial on your body

25:21 in your body then you have your cells. So this is what we

25:24 to as our flora. Alright. these are beneficial floor for multiple

25:29 But they want to live. And bacteria come across other bacteria, they

25:33 like each other and they fight each off. And so what they try

25:36 do is they try to create environments kill off the foreign bacteria. So

25:39 have an environment that you're creating to those beneficial bacteria to live so that

25:45 kill off the foreign bacteria. And we get that stuff out of whack

25:49 things happen. But we have this that's there to serve and prevent pathological

25:56 organisms growth. Um We produce lactic , hydrochloric acid. So reminds to

26:02 five second rule many things can actually their way into the digestive system.

26:06 it's like yeah until it gets to stomach. In which case that's where

26:09 start wiping the whole bunches of things your saliva, your lacquer. Most

26:14 have antibacterial enzymes. Saliva is actually be pretty dangerous if you think about

26:18 . I mean this is what rattlesnakes cobras are. They're not injecting you

26:22 a poison. They're injecting you with that are there to destroy other

26:26 It's their saliva. It just happens destroy cells. And that's why you

26:32 right? They're designed to kill their and start digesting them before you swallow

26:41 . Um Your mucus traps all sorts fun stuff. So if you ever

26:44 why your snotty and snarky and all of mucus coming out of every pore

26:48 your body, it's there because it's and it grabs things, right?

26:52 when you grab mucus and dust and sorts of your trapping it, you're

26:57 it and you can remove it Now let's face it we've all done

27:01 in the morning. Right? You up your have you done that?

27:07 . I know the laser sitting. never done anything like that. I

27:10 pee And I don't poop and I make any sort of horrible noises out

27:13 my body. Guys just go ahead believe that until you can't.

27:20 But yeah, that's us trapping things we breathe. All right. Um

27:28 then when we trap stuff, just our skin, it sheds itself.

27:34 saliva washes materials away. An easy to see this is uh oreo.

27:39 guys like Oreos. All right. eat Oreos and go look in the

27:43 . Like eat the oreo looking look at your teeth and then go

27:48 for about a minute or two and go back and look in the mirror

27:50 their teeth. All right, When first eat the oil, you have

27:54 whole bunch of chocolate bits in your right in about two minutes there will

27:58 no chocolate because your saliva is constantly produced and constantly washing things away lack

28:05 fluids. Those are basically wiping the of your eye there like windshield

28:10 Its like a liquid windshield wiper for eye. And it's constantly removing all

28:14 of horrible things away from the surface your eye. And then you're in

28:17 think of it as like well this gross and horrible. And what we're

28:20 is we're picking out all the waste it's nasty. Yes, but it's

28:23 very very acidic and it cleanses out urethra between the bladder and the bathroom

28:31 so it serves as a way to and flush and kill in creating an

28:36 that is inhospitable to organ Izabal growth regard to the cells we're gonna be

28:44 first at the specific cells specific cells cells that either other things The most

28:48 one. The one that we think are the neutrophils are the most abundant

28:52 . And what they do is wherever is. They're the first ones to

28:57 , right? They're the ones that the signals. Say this is the

28:59 to show up and we need to eating whatever is not supposed to be

29:04 . And then later on we get macrophages they're gonna come in response to

29:10 first line of cells coming in. they're kind of the cleanup crew,

29:14 ? They're the ones that come in say all right. Um I see

29:17 damages occurred. You've called me and do I need to deal with?

29:19 right, there's a whole bunch of here. I'm just gonna start destroying

29:22 that shouldn't be here, damaged things that are pathogenic. All these

29:27 I'm gonna sit there and consume. , as we mentioned, these

29:31 they can be residents or they can wanderers and what they do all together

29:36 you see famous sites Vegas psychosis, basically engulfing and degrading unwanted substances now

29:44 order for this to happen. There's couple of steps that are involved.

29:47 thing you have to be able to the unwanted substance. So remember we're

29:51 with an arms race here, bacteria to hide themselves because they don't want

29:54 be eaten. And the way they themselves they create these sugarcoats. They're

29:59 Eminem's. They have candy on the and they have chewy goodness on the

30:04 as far as the macrophage is Okay. But that sugar coat is

30:11 something that's hard to grab onto. , lack of a better way to

30:15 this. And what they're doing in is they're hiding the things that the

30:20 or the neutrophils should be able to . But hopefully the macrophage and the

30:28 able to keep up. And so they can recognize that's foreign surface,

30:34 going to first adhere to it. that's a step one. So you

30:39 it and then you grab onto it then what you do is you're going

30:41 engulf. All right now when we engulf here this is kind of a

30:47 um structure. Now these cells do have arms. What they do is

30:51 create what are called pseudo podia. so if you have your organism,

30:55 they do is they spread the cell the organism and then they enclose

31:01 And so what they've done now is enclosed that bacterium into a vest sickle

31:07 that vesicles now inside the cell And so now all you gotta do

31:12 take that vessel with that living bacterian the inside and then you introduce enzymes

31:19 it. So this is what the zone is for the license um comes

31:23 it has all these enzymes the Um And that vesicles with that bacterium

31:28 up. You release all the license and you destroy tear apart and

31:33 And now what you are left with little tiny amino acids and nucleic acids

31:39 all sorts of little things that you break down into their subsequent parts.

31:42 you can then use that to be by the cell. You can do

31:47 same thing with a damaged piece of . You come across a damaged piece

31:51 tissue. You recognize that you adhere it. You wrap yourself around it

31:56 vesicles so that's now isolated. You in the license. Um You destroy

32:00 then whatever is inside that license. You can recycle. All right.

32:06 that you can't go through the process X. X. Acidosis. And

32:13 just gonna say, alright, I use it. So this body will

32:16 a way to use it. So the whole process. And this is

32:20 the picture is. Just trying to you right over there. So it's

32:23 particularly difficult. But I hope that of makes sense so far. We

32:28 with what we've talked about any place need to stop. Yeah.

32:36 So we also have the pro inflammatory immune insights trying to see if it

32:43 flamed up. And I really It's just you can barely tell where

32:47 scratched. I tried. All So we have Besa fills and we

32:53 we have mass cells, mast cells just like Besa fills. All

32:56 Uh They're they're identifiable because they look same. The difference is that they're

33:03 resident. All right. And so fills. Circulate mast cells reside.

33:09 where do we reside? Skin mucosa all over the place. All

33:12 And what they do is they are inflammatory. Pro secretary. In other

33:18 , what they do is they're going try to attract in the macrophages and

33:24 and other cells to come in to the site of infection has taken

33:28 So, they're going to secrete those that promote inflation, inflation,

33:34 Alright, So, the first thing gonna do is we're going to secrete

33:38 chemical called histamine. Alright, What histamine? Histamine increases Visa dilation increases

33:46 permeability. Alright. So, what doing here is we're taking a blood

33:50 like this And we're saying blood vessel need you to get bigger when it

33:53 bigger. What does that mean? terms of the flow? It

33:58 Right, So, you have more . More flow into that area.

34:01 then if you increase permeability, what doing is you're causing that fluid to

34:05 into the space around it. Think a mosquito bite mosquito comes along bite

34:12 and then you start scratching and what detecting is the chemical in there that

34:18 was the anesthetic that the mosquito put your body. Is that chemical supposed

34:23 be in your body? What do think? No. So what you

34:27 now is you have mass cells that saying wait, wait, wait,

34:30 , wait. This isn't supposed to here beside dilate and expand. What

34:35 to your mosquito bite. It gets . And what they're doing is you're

34:41 the flow to enter into the right? And what it does is

34:46 traps that chemical in that locale. now we've isolated and we can now

34:53 that pathogen. That's the that's the . Okay, the second thing we're

35:00 do is we're gonna put heparin in area now. What does he

35:04 It's an anti coagulant. If I plasma entering into a space that is

35:08 a blood vessel, it's going to . Do we want that to

35:14 The answer is no. So the is there to make sure that the

35:17 stays a liquid. Alright, so got flow into the area. We

35:22 uh not coagulating. And the last that it's gonna do is we're gonna

35:26 releasing signaling molecules that are going to the area to continue the process.

35:31 chemicals are the acosta noise there type lipid. And what they're doing is

35:35 saying, hey, we started inflammation , keep it up. And so

35:40 why you maintain that that localized area inflammation. Now all of this together

35:47 also going to serve as that chemo signal to call in those neutrophils and

35:53 ultimately the macrophages and so on. natural killer cell, like I

36:02 has the coolest name, It's a lymphocyte, it's granular meaning it has

36:08 and its job is to look around see whether or not you have a

36:12 marker. Now, presumably everyone in room is supposed to be here

36:17 right? You've heard of some classrooms we have the, the video pranks

36:21 Tiktok is coming in with that Is that supposed to be in the

36:25 ? No, and so in every one of us here who's supposed

36:29 be here technically has a identify are them. Now we don't actually have

36:35 , but I want you to picture like having a name tag and it

36:38 I'm supposed to be in A and one or a Mp to whatever this

36:41 is, right? And imagine you in and the first thing you do

36:45 you come in is you slap that on? All right, well the

36:48 killer cell is, is he is bouncer and he's walking around the room

36:53 , um, do you have that sticker? And you're supposed to

36:56 , well of course you see right , do you have that sticker?

36:59 you have that sticker? Do you that sticker? Do you have that

37:02 and is going over and over and again. Now these are what we

37:05 self identify as they do. You in this space, are you a

37:10 cell? And every cell in the should have these stickers, right?

37:15 say yes, I belong in Dr . I am a Doctor Wayne

37:18 Right? And if you don't And is where it gets its name.

37:24 I'm sorry, you're not belonging in . Well you need to go and

37:29 suicide. Go die in a And what does it do? It

37:34 because all cells have to respond to signals that it receives and so it's

37:39 to recognize. It bumps up to and says you are not supposed to

37:44 here, You are a hazard, die. And that cell does hence

37:49 name natural killer. It is targeting cells. Now. Typically what we're

37:55 at here is we're looking at cells are there but they're either cancerous in

38:00 or their virally infected. So the that normally creates that self signal is

38:07 is basically being turned off. They're not fake, acidic. What

38:11 say, they tell them to go die. What they're doing is creating

38:15 process called apoptosis. Say the word me apoptosis. Apoptosis. Do you

38:22 that P in the middle the p silent. It's a PPO santos is

38:27 alright. You're gonna hear some people apoptosis and then you're just gonna look

38:30 them, check your head and another . Okay, it's apoptosis alright.

38:36 is programmed cell death. That's when say you I need you to go

38:41 and you're like yes sir, right . And that whole process occurs right

38:47 . This is a natural process. are all born and developed with webs

38:52 your fingers. You have webs between fingers right now. Know why?

38:58 there is a program that came along said, hey um we're not

39:03 And so you need to get rid all that webbing. And so those

39:09 went through the process of apoptosis. , well, so what they're gonna

39:14 , they're gonna enhance the inflammatory They produce a chemical called preference.

39:20 perforate infected cells. So you see they start dying, right? And

39:26 they produce the grand Symes these are chemicals that induce apoptosis. We're not

39:30 go through the process of what apoptosis . There's a lot of chemicals involved

39:34 , very interesting process that all of cells are programmed to commit suicide.

39:39 just it's a it's a fail safe we don't want sales to behave in

39:44 non appropriate manner because that's problematic. mentioned, the center fills you're probably

39:53 gonna experience these in your life but what these are are very weakly acidic

39:58 against parasitic worms. Now that's why can think about this is that they're

40:02 like pirate ships that come along the which are carrying all the treasure and

40:09 ships do blast holes in the galleons that's really what these do they come

40:13 to the worm and say you're too to eat but you're not supposed to

40:17 here. And so I'm just gonna up next to I'm gonna recognize you

40:20 I'm gonna start releasing all these chemicals are basically punch holes in the worm

40:23 the worm basically dies. All Um So uh that's ultimately what they

40:29 . They do have some other So they play a role in allergy

40:33 asthma. Um And they also play role in recognizing antigen antibody complexes which

40:39 not gonna talk about really so but basically an antigen is something that's

40:42 supposed to be there. And the you're immune system marking it for

40:46 And so um it's NFL's can actually those. So, their weekly fag

40:51 . But this is one of the that they can recognize. Alright,

40:56 all your cells I barely covered scratched surface. Lord knows how far we

41:02 to go. Like I said, fun. All right. I like

41:08 picture. Alright. Antimicrobial proteins. gonna be looking at two basic

41:13 Their job is to initiate and enhance innate response. Talked about the interference

41:19 we're gonna be talking about compliment. , so interference. They're non specific

41:24 against viral infection. Compliment is It's complicated and we're gonna keep it

41:31 . Alright, complement is about 30 proteins. Their plasma proteins are in

41:36 and they're responsible for mediating all of unique types of defense mechanisms. So

41:42 going to start with the interference, , all sorts of different types of

41:45 release these. What they do is prevent the spread of viral infection.

41:50 so when a cell becomes infected, literally says to all the other cells

41:56 been infected, that's what interferon does been infected. Just letting you know

42:01 what it does. It basically triggers whole bunch of enzymes to start trying

42:05 destroy the viral RNA that's there. remember what is the purpose of the

42:12 to replicate itself? So it has that's trying to supersede. So you

42:16 have two systems that are trying to themselves out. All right. But

42:21 idea is the cell itself is look, I don't want to

42:24 I just need to get rid of virus. So I'm gonna try to

42:26 as best I can. What's inside . But what it's also gonna do

42:31 it's gonna tell the nearby cells I've been infected. So you guys

42:35 your systems up and running so that you aren't infected yet, if you

42:39 happen to get infected, you're already to fight off whatever's here or

42:43 If you're partially infected or very lowly , maybe you can overcome the self

42:48 overcome the virus quick. The second it's gonna do is start gonna start

42:53 the immune system. That's where the killer cells and macrophages come in remember

42:57 killer cells are looking and saying hey I hear you've been infected with the

43:04 . Just just go ahead and get of yourself. Now there are three

43:09 . We have interferon alpha, beta, interferon gamma. Um So

43:15 you know, it's a large family two of these help to reduce

43:19 That's alpha and beta. Alright, don't think I ask you specifically those

43:23 of things, compliment on the other , it's like I said is more

43:29 . You can see here we have different pathways there is what is referred

43:32 as the classical pathway. I think classical pathway was one that was discovered

43:37 . Hence the name Classical. Um The alternate pathways. Just a

43:42 one. But really what these things , these are plasma proteins are already

43:45 circulation in your body, They're already . They make up about 10% of

43:50 plasma proteins that are in circulation in body, right? And what they

43:55 is they come together in different combinations do some very unique things.

44:01 so in the classical pathway, the that that gets put together what it

44:07 is it binds to the antigen antibody . Those things that are in the

44:11 pathway. What they do is they and bind up bacteria. The ones

44:17 are trying to slip away and basically up to fungi and basically mark them

44:23 destruction. All right now, these the four things that complement does notice

44:29 didn't name the proteins, proteins are C one C two C three C

44:33 C five C six. You see fun this is? All right.

44:36 we want to know is we want know what these things are. The

44:39 thing that doesn't go through the process optimization is simply taking the compliment protein

44:47 tagging a bacteria to it. So that sugar coat the sugar coated the

44:54 . What is it? What is job? What is it supposed to

44:59 ? Yeah, it makes it so so that neutrophils and macrophages can't recognize

45:03 . So what compliment does it puts big old flag on there that

45:08 hey um you may not be able recognize this but you can recognize

45:12 So why don't you go ahead and to this? And this is how

45:15 macrophages and neutrophils are able to adhere bacteria that can't normally be adhered

45:21 That's what optimization is right. Same with the fungal wall. Right.

45:26 cell wall is there to protect the optimization allows us to recognize it.

45:32 second thing that doesn't cause inflammation whenever have inflammation, what we're doing is

45:37 in other immuno sites to enforce the that the body is trying to

45:42 But also is there too trap whatever is that we're trying to trying to

45:47 . Right? So whenever you see it's basically the inflow of fluid and

45:51 anti coagulant and serving as a chemical to bring in the immune insights.

45:56 thing that it does. Cytology sis , so cytology this is is basically

46:02 what we're gonna do is we're just go ahead and destroy you right now

46:06 we're just gonna punch holes in the your into the sides of the

46:10 And that that foreign agent basically leaks all its fluid and basically gets destroyed

46:14 that way. What we're doing here we're taking the complement proteins that form

46:19 unique structure called the MAC. All . And that's what we're looking at

46:24 is the membrane attack complex. That . That's the MAC. All

46:31 We'll see a picture that I think have a picture there. That's that's

46:34 the MAC looks like. And so this would be the cell membrane.

46:37 are the compliments. You see the and basically fluid to move in and

46:41 . So now we have a way allow fluids to move down their concentration

46:48 ions to move against their concentration That's basically causing the cell to

46:53 And the last thing what we do compliment can be used as a way

46:58 bind up to an antibody that's bound to an antigen. Again, I

47:02 we haven't talked about that yet. the next. That's the adaptive

47:05 But antibodies are your way to flag that aren't supposed to be in your

47:09 and what you can do is compliment along and instead of waiting for an

47:13 cell to recognize antibody complement binds up it and then compliment can also stick

47:19 red blood cells. And then the blood cell basically is used as a

47:24 to move the antibody energy and complex from circulation and into the spleen.

47:30 example where immune insights are waiting. ? So the idea here is your

47:36 is not passively waiting for the pathogens find their way into the tissue.

47:42 actively grabbing things and escorting them to they can be destroyed. That's kind

47:50 cool. Don't you think so basically come out swinging against all sorts of

47:55 things. So the last little bit , what I want to deal with

48:03 I know we talked about a lot things interfering. What is the deal

48:08 starts with b virally infected cells What does compliment deal with a whole

48:14 of different things bacteria in a very non specific way. We got a

48:19 of different types of cells. We've mass cells and besa fills we have

48:23 and neutrophils. We have natural killer . They all have their role to

48:29 for non specific things. We're not I need to recognize this specific

48:33 It's I just recognize a bacteria that's supposed to be here bacteria. Your

48:37 is always bad. Okay, so have these cells, we have these

48:44 . But what we wanna do is anything passes the barrier, we want

48:49 have a couple of specific processes or that help us to fight those

48:55 This is what inflammation is. This what fever is. Okay if you

48:59 want, why do I have to a fever? Well, the fever

49:03 example, we'll see here helps your destroy things and creates an environment that's

49:09 to them. But it's okay for . It's not great for you but

49:13 really not great for the other But let's first start with the inflammatory

49:19 . Alright, this is any sort response or a response that occurs in

49:24 to trauma, intense heat irritation or . All right, so have you

49:30 yourself? Right. You get Get bitten by a bug inflammation.

49:37 This is what we're talking about What we're doing is I've already mentioned

49:40 . We're preventing the spread of the agent fluid is gonna be flowing in

49:44 trapping things in place. What we're do by trapping things and attracting in

49:50 and attracting macrophages. We're now bringing fact ascetic cells to destroy and remove

49:57 tissue and or the pathogens that are and by sweeping it out. What

50:02 gonna do is we're basically creating an that's now ready for repair? You

50:07 been noticing the the construction that's taking over here. Have you guys been

50:11 it or you just you just aware it's there just to wear.

50:15 my building is right next to So, I will, first thing

50:17 did was they broke down the building they did it in such a very

50:21 way as like, I'm gonna break the roof first and I'm gonna go

50:24 then I'm gonna cut down the columns you know, and then I'm gonna

50:27 in. I'm gonna backfill with with dirt. There's a very unique and

50:32 order in which things are being done the reason they do it in the

50:35 that they're doing it is because they're to build a building on a solid

50:39 . They're not just gonna come in knock everything down and just kind of

50:43 to build on top of it. right. And that's kind of what

50:46 talking about here is not your your system and repair that takes place after

50:51 . Aren't going to just do things nilly. They're doing things in a

50:54 ordered way so that your body can itself in the best way possible.

51:01 , we're gonna release different types of . Alright, That's the first

51:04 Alright. So, when damage we're gonna release inflammatory factors and chemo

51:09 . All right. The chemo tactic are the attractive signals, the inflammatory

51:15 are pulling in the fluid into that area. So, in response to

51:21 those chemicals, the inflammatory chemicals, where you're gonna get the Visa

51:25 That's where you're gonna get the capillary . So, fluid is flowing in

51:30 faster and causing an increase in the in that particular area. And then

51:36 gonna happen is you're gonna start seeing expression of chemicals that are going to

51:43 Lucas sites. Now, there's a I think I posted online. I

51:50 be wrong. I may have just you about it where it shows margin

51:53 , where you got the leukocyte just of cruising along. All right,

51:56 got your neutrophils in the blood and of a sudden it comes across the

51:59 signal that says well, and it itself and binds to the wall of

52:03 , of the blood vessel. And it kind of looks for where it

52:07 sneak through and then it flattens itself . And then it works its way

52:10 between the cells of the capillary. process of squishing itself down is called

52:18 ation. And by working its way the cells, is now isolating and

52:23 to where that that signal is coming . Dia pa dcis is simply the

52:29 of wiggling its way through those individual . And when you hear the word

52:34 taxes, it's basically following the chemical . So all three of those are

52:39 of used together. But that's how bring neutrophils which are in circulation to

52:44 site of injury, Other proteins are to be uh moved into the area

52:50 well. We're gonna talk about excuse me, immunoglobulins later. That's

52:54 be on the next talk, talked complement. Already. It's sitting there

52:58 for pathogens. You're gonna see clotting . What we're doing is we're if

53:02 have like a tear in the what we're gonna do is we're gonna

53:05 gonna seal the break so that nothing can come into that area. So

53:09 isolated it. So that now we're this areas where damage has occurred and

53:14 gonna bring in other chemicals like kind which are there to continue the process

53:19 reinforcing the inflammation that's taken place. , one of the things that's gonna

53:25 that's gonna stimulate pain receptors. Why ? Why do you have to have

53:32 ? What do you think you stepped a tack? Why do you have

53:37 have pain, stop yourself from damaging more when I am have pain.

53:43 , give yourself a star, if damaged the tissue, I want to

53:49 it less. I wanted to give an opportunity to heal itself. And

53:52 by creating pain, it basically makes want to stop using it. So

53:59 signals like these chemicals are going to the pain. And then what do

54:04 do we take inside to say stop inflammation, stop the pain. And

54:08 your body is trying to do is basically fighting your body, trying to

54:12 something. Now there's some cardinal signs inflammation. I'm just gonna tell you

54:16 they are. They're real basic. gonna see redness, you know.

54:19 that when you see inflammation that's usually write? Why is that? Well

54:23 means there's an increase of blood flow why do we have an increase in

54:26 flow when we need to supply nutrients to the cells are are dealing

54:31 the damage. We're gonna have increased . Well, if I have more

54:34 in the area, I'm gonna get heat. That makes sense.

54:38 Alright. 3rd, we're gonna see . Why do I have swelling?

54:41 I've increased blood flow into the the capillaries opened up fluids going into

54:46 , it's filling up, it's like balloon. So you're gonna get that

54:49 . Alright you're gonna see pain. again? Pain is so that we

54:55 our movements so you can start repairing and then finally you're gonna see loss

55:00 function. Alright, loss of function because of that that inflammation ever twisted

55:06 ankle. Anyone twist your ankle gets big and swollen, can you

55:13 It doesn't bend, it doesn't want do anything. It just.

55:17 so in severe cases of inflammation, you're doing is you're you're basically preventing

55:22 movement and you get loss of So that repair can take place our

55:32 little bit here is fever. You me fever? This would have been

55:42 if it was on Tuesday I Alright. What is fever? High

55:47 body temperature basically this is called Parex . Um What it does and why

55:52 walking away? I can't stand the of my own voice there.

55:55 What it does is basically resetting your body temperature. So your hypothalamus is

56:01 for maintaining normal body temperature within a range. And what you're basically saying

56:06 we want to create an environment that not beneficial for pathogens that we can

56:12 live within. So what we're gonna is we're gonna reset our internal

56:15 So it's like going to the thermostat saying instead of being 72 degrees it's

56:19 little chilly. I want to make warmer in here. I'm gonna take

56:22 up to 74. And so the of your body gets warmer. Now

56:26 ? This is beneficial because you have range in which your body can actually

56:30 . Right, Your your your proteins stuff don't start DNA tree until it

56:35 to about a 405° inside your That's why that's the dangerous temperature,

56:42 ? But other organisms really really struggle that temperature. They're gonna fall

56:48 Their proteins don't work at those temperatures they die. So one of the

56:52 first things that we want to do create an inhospitable environment to organisms that

56:57 survive at the same temperatures that we internally. Now what we're gonna use

57:04 we're gonna turn on what are called gin. And so inter Lukens

57:08 These are pira jin's they're the ones are resetting the clock or setting the

57:14 . And what's gonna happen is you're see a couple of different things and

57:16 me if this does not sound like you feel sick right? First thing

57:21 on set so you get this vessel and so you start not you start

57:27 warmer and warmer. Alright and then reinforce and produce more heat, your

57:33 starts shivering. You notice that you that shiver, get the shakiness and

57:38 you get shivers right? And then you're gonna do is you're gonna increase

57:42 metabolic process. And so what your is gonna do is it's gonna try

57:46 start consuming and producing more fuel so you can start attacking those things that

57:52 harmful liver and spleen basically are gonna sequestering up things that the microorganisms

58:00 A lot of things can't survive without . A lot of things can't survive

58:03 iron. So let's go ahead and those things or not produce them.

58:07 go ahead and hold them away sequester up bacteria going well I got nothing

58:11 keep me alive here. Third thing gonna happen is that your temperature returned

58:18 to its normal set point. You notice that it's like oh I feel

58:21 you ever had that day? You , you're you're sick, I'm

58:24 I don't feel good. I'm not to school today and all day long

58:27 don't feel good. And then about through the day you're like, I'm

58:29 fine, I'm feeling good and then becomes evening and then all of a

58:33 it's like crap. I feel sick . I don't want to do

58:37 I'm not going to school tomorrow and wake up, I don't feel good

58:42 then find her in the rest of day. You've noticed that,

58:46 So what you're doing is you're going and down like this. And that's

58:49 that last little step is that down said, uh Effervescence. And basically

58:53 you're doing is you're trying to um through this process of All right.

59:00 we deal with it? No, didn't. So we're well, did

59:03 deal with it? I think we . We come back down,

59:05 we didn't. So let's go ahead come back up and so you may

59:08 right back on and so you're gonna through these three steps over and over

59:12 until it finally gotten you've finally gotten of the pathogen? The one other

59:16 I didn't mention up here is I the shivering. Have you noticed

59:20 The other thing that you do when when you start feeling sick is that

59:23 start huddling? You know, you're , you'll get a blanket and you'll

59:28 huddle, what you're doing is you're decreasing surface area so that it stays

59:35 . That's the other thing, like said, what are some benefits here

59:41 , raise the temperature. You're basically with the metabolic processes of the

59:45 You're mucking with the cellular machinery so don't reproduce real well, that is

59:51 going to promote interferon activity. So the cells are going okay, um

59:55 to release that interfere on. And you're the interferon is helping to fight

60:02 . It's going to promote the activity the adaptive immune system, which we're

60:06 to deal with again on Tuesday. helps to accelerate tissue repair.

60:11 what we're doing is we're learning all cells on and so if all the

60:15 are as active as they can they're doing their work at maximum

60:20 And lastly, what we're doing is promoting the immune cells to start moving

60:25 where infection is. So collectively we a lot of things going on right

60:32 , your body and I know you are you excited to get out of

60:36 . Your body is already primed to things as you're leaving here. You're

60:43 on door handles. I guarantee you're gonna wash your hands between now and

60:47 bite of food that you're gonna have lunch, I guarantee it. And

60:51 reason you're not dying this right Everything we looked at is there to

60:59 you fight this and when we come , we're gonna now see how our

61:03 looks, and identify something specifically and I'm attacking you now. All

61:09 No one asked questions because I can you guys getting out of here,

5999:59
