Course content
"Cellular immunity" is an important modern section fundamental immunology, which studies all aspects of the development of a specific immune response: the structure of TCR and BCR, biochemical signaling pathways from these receptors, as well as the formation of receptors in the development of lymphocytes; populations of T and B lymphocytes, features of development and functioning of cells of these populations; processing and presentation of antigens of protein and lipid origin by cells of different types of APC; interaction of cells of different functional types in the process of development of a specific immune response.
