Course content
The subject of study of the discipline are the general mechanisms of immune-mediated processes that determine the development of various pathologies of the organism. The discipline is a specialized biological discipline related to the role of the body's immune system in the development of pathological processes, causes and mechanisms of immune deficiency, primary and secondary immunodeficiencies, the role of autoimmune processes in normal and pathologies of autoimmune nature, physiological basis of adaptation to immune features of functioning, mechanisms of immunopathogenesis of infectious diseases on the example of the development of HIV infection, methods of diagnosis and immunotherapy, immunocorrection and immunoprophylaxis of immune-dependent diseases.
