Explore the fundamentals of immunology in this comprehensive 10-hour video series. Delve into the intricacies of immune cells, organs of the immune system, and various types of vaccines, including viral, DNA, conjugated, killed, and live attenuated vaccines. Examine the complement system, its pathways, and common features. Investigate different types of hypersensitivity reactions and the development of T and B cells. Learn about major histocompatibility complex (MHC), its classes, and structure. Discover the roles of cytotoxic T cells, natural killer cells, and antibodies in immune responses. Study humoral and cell-mediated immunity, antibody class switching, and progenitor cells. Explore thymic selection, T cell activation, and the functions of interferon gamma. Analyze various antigen-presenting cells and their comparison. Investigate cytokines, cytokine receptors, and different types of immunoglobulins. Gain insights into antibody subclasses, structures, and the concepts of isotype, allotype, and idiotype.
