Course content
The discipline is a basic discipline that covers the functioning of the innate immune system, evolutionary aspects of the formation of the system of protection against pathogens in different species of animals and humans, specificity of recognition at different levels of the immune system, multifactorial and multilevel immune system. humoral: cytokines, complement system, proteins of the acute phase of inflammation, endogenous antimicrobial peptides, interferon - and cellular system: myeloid and lymphoid cells of the body's immune system in the implementation of the mechanisms of natural immunity. The study of the effector mechanisms of innate immunity as the basis of general immunobiology is relevant for further study of the mechanisms of adaptive immunity and the student's understanding of the multilevel relationships between different parts of the immune system.
